After the final play testing has succesfully ended, the Desert Army will be part of the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion under Optional Rules.
The Desert Army is also eligible for use with Global 1943.
Lets face it guys: some players prefer tanks and these are the only land units they buy. Other prefer infantry.
Talking about naval units some players buy only submarines, other only battleships.
Consequence: a players army has only some types of units.
That´s not real.
A possible solution is to give bonus to variety. For example an attack using all types of land units would recieve a bonus (a little bit like combining infantry with artillery in actual rules).
A naval battle using all types of naval units would recieve a bonus.
Combining naval and air units would recieve a bonus.
Combining land and air units would recieve a bonus…
This way we would be tended to use multiple types of units.
Tnaks guys…
Razor like, and hey its not too late, we all mail Larry tonight and tell him to ditch the NO’s and instead give an Combined Arms bonus, al right man .
Larry has already covered this in the new AAP’40. Read this article on the front page of A&A.org: http://www.axisandallies.org/node/403
