Napoleonic Wars, 1798
This Variant is coming soon. You need the units from G40, but this is only played on the Europe 1940 2nd edition map.

RE: Global 1940 Fixed Units Variants
@imperious-leader
What order are those numbers in? Is it Cost, movement, attack, defense? -
RE: Global 1940 Fixed Units Variants
@gen-manstein
That was mainly what I was talking about. I really wish I had not made that. -

@rommel13579
Yikes. I am now looking back on this and thinking that this unrealistic, complicated, and somewhat not historical. -

@midnight_reaper
What I mean is more historical. If you have any more questions, please ask. -
RE: Global 1940 Fixed Units Variants
@rommel13579
And if somebody has their own fixed units, please post it here. -

@rommel13579
I am revising this so the prices are not so confusing. I am also revising the units. Remember, this uses d12s. It will be here within a week. -
RE: Which side does axis and allies favor?
@rommel13579
I also don’t use my mechs to attack. -

@andrewaagamer
My amour varies form 5-7, Germany has only ground forces; he leaves his air behind to attack the U.K. Germany’s force is pretty much all of the ground forces from Germany, Greater Southern Germany, Slovakia-Hungary, Romania, Poland, and 3-6 tanks that he buys on G1. He adds some mechanized infantry along the way.
My specific counterattack force varies because I may or may not be able to get some troops to Moscow before he cuts me off. The main reason I counterattack instead of defending Moscow with these troops is because his force -going through E Poland, Belorus, Smolensk, then to Russia- cuts off my troops so that Germany would reach Russia before I could. So I attack. -
RE: Which side does axis and allies favor?
@andrewaagamer
The counterattack force? That consists of at least 12 infantry, 4 artillery, and several tanks, not made to destroy the force, but to make it so that the remaining German force will not be able to take Moscow. -
RE: Which side does axis and allies favor?
- What is OOB? 2. My opponent sends one strong central force to Moscow, and I use my forces defending Leningrad and sometimes Kiev to attack him while the rest of my force defends Moscow. He does leave behind his air force, so that helps me.

@rommel13579
Also he leaves behind most of his air units to attack Britain. And would you suggest Britain building a Minor IC in Egypt on its first turn? -

@arthur-bomber-harris
My brother (who is my opponent) usually goes for a full Moscow attack; he declares war G2, attacks E Poland, then Belorus, Smolensk, then Russia. He sometimes also sends a force to take Ukraine. I usually send a strong counterattack, diminishing his force, and then defend Moscow. How would you say to knock out the Soviet Union quickly? -

@marshmallowofwar
Yes, but I haven’t tested this out yet; I’m still searching for a fixed setup for G40. -
RE: Which side does axis and allies favor?
@militarized-milkmen
So for me, the Allies are usually better. However, most other posts I’ve read say the Axis does have the advantage. Maybe my brother is just bad? -
RE: Which side does axis and allies favor?
@rommel13579
Sorry, it works for me. -
RE: Which side does axis and allies favor?
@arthur-bomber-harris
I have a defensive personality, but I also really like a large-scale counterattack, which is why I like being the Allies. I usually win, mostly because of the Soviets; I hamper down the Germans’ speed, and build a couple of tanks/artillery every round, and the counterattack that follows gives time for the other Allies to come and wipe out the already-busy Germany. I works for me. -
RE: Axis or Allies Wins in Those Who Have Played Global…List them here.
@real-life-rorschach
I played about 6 games, 1 Axis win, the others Allied. The main deciding factors were bad G1 dice in all of the games, the Soviets being almost impossible to defeat in time (the one time the Axis won, the U.S. and Britain were about to take Berlin/Warsaw on the next turn), and the Americans sending strategic bombers to Europe and crippling the German factory production while still being able to fight Japan. -

This is my first try to make a more historical version, but I have not done anything to the setup. If you have any questions, complaints, or would like to change anything, reply to this.
