Global 40 leaves me with sour taste in my mouth
Just played my first game on this world map.
I was Germany.
This version sucks chickens.
Moving 3 spaces during combat from naval base is a joke.
American Bombers bombing Sea of Japan from west coast USA and having a place to land in Russia is a horrible broken mechanic of the map.
If Usa stays neutral till turn 4, why do they get to declare war turn 3?
Japans hands are tied unless they want the whole world at war.
The Mongolian/russian treaty is a joke,
If Japan decides to go land war, they are up a creek.
USA Economy is way to large for any 1 axis nation to overcome.
There is no need for a KGF stray, cause u can easily strangle and enclose Japan to a worthless fortified island in no time.I’m glad I didn’t spend 200$ on this rubbish version.

RE: Best Luftwaffe 1940 addition
Even with all of them combined, German Air Power would still need Boots on the ground to be able to make any meaningful gains.
What Germany lacked wasn’t so much equipment to fight with. They needed pilots, a better training regime maybe, or AF Academy

RE: What would you do if you had six A-bombs?
6 atomic bombs and the means to deliver??
1 on London. Sue for peace " or else" option
2 on Manchester…. England will surrender after thatThe French will surrender… Well because their French
Poland would be crushed conventionally, and the rest of Europe would be annexed
from fear of same fate as Poland or London.Now I would hold the other 4 in reserve. I know I only got 4 left but the rest of the world does not.
My next move would be towards the middle east, not Russia.

RE: Best German Weapon for the Japanese
I don’t think any 1 technology from Germany would have helped at all.
Japan imho lost the war the day they Bombed Pearl.
Why?
Because with all their planning, practicing, hush hush, and training, they forgot the biggest weapon of all…. A amphibious landings on Hawaii.Their surprise attack had Air and Sea but no land forces.
Just imagine the Technolgy, resources, and military hardware they would have captured had they brought a land invasion w them. -
RE: Global War 1940/41
Well played again last weekend.
Axis victory….Allied player surrendered…after 13 hrs lol.
game was far from over… Russia was close to being on the ropes.we played w 2 national advantages ea.
Russia had noble industry and salvage
Germany had Wolf packs and U boat intervention
Uk had Sub Hunters and joint strike
Japan had kamikazes and kaiten torps
Usa had island bases, and Flying Fortresses
Italy had Bravado Inf. And Germanic InfluenceUsa got the only tech of the game of long range aircraft
German players focus was 80-20 for most of the game vs Russia.
Although Germany did focus 2 buy phases solely on Naval power.
At quitting time Germany hosted a 3 carrier, 1 cruiser, 1 BB, 7 DD, 3 TRNY, 11 sub Fleet along w about 10 land based fighters, 2 tac bombers, 3 strategic bombers.Uk used its joint strike almost to perfection… They wiped out 2/3rds of japans total naval and naval air power, sizeable landings in Europe,Africa, and a major India thrust w. China in support.
Axis land based airpower eventually crushed indias uprising, the Luftwaffe pushed the French invasion back to the beaches and Italian Armour and air pushed them off the mainland. Although losing a chunk of Africa in the process. America had a nice convoy going back and forth between Washington and morrocco.
Overall a fun game…

RE: Global War 1940/41
The Issue is Germany’s ability to build Ships in the English channel.
If Germany focus’s its efforts on a combined arms sea lion with repeated assaults Uk Will fall on rd 2 with good german dice or rd 3 if Ge dice average. -

RE: Favorite D-day Division
If D-Day had failed, and the war in Europe was still raging away as a stale mate in the east, the Americans would have dropped the nuke on Berlin for sure.
Or Bremen/something like it.
I thought you meant it would have landed in the hands of the Germans, not used on them, my bad

RE: Favorite D-day Division
Nukes probably would have landed in europe instead.
How, since the father of the Nuclear bomb was/is American? Openhiemer or how ever it is spelled.

RE: Errata Questions
yes changing altitude uses up 1 speed movement. As long as your not going fast speed, if your going fast it would use 2
The “S” turns includes the “Immelman turn”

I think you may be wrong here. There are a few Survivors left today that can fly.
By far My fav. is the Folke Wulfe 190. If i ever win the lottery, that would be my extravagant Purchase, or maybe a Huey :evil:

RE: Favorite D-day Division
the 12th were Hitler youth lead by LSSAH officers and NCO’s. I don’t see how they could even count since they were not on the Sea wall on the 6th.

RE: I suppose World War II is really over by now
Probably doesn’t help that Isreal ignores treaties and the population builds wherever it wants, forcing the Palestinian further and further out, but I don’t want to get too much into that or we’ll be closed for business.
Not to mention they (Judas) betrayed Jesus.
Israel would not even exist today if not for western powers
I do not have a favorable opinion on Israel.
