Is it a bit like G40? Where on neutrals they have a number of what units they defend with and you can pick which power to represent who’s.

RE: Chinese house rule
GODLEADER, what version are you talking about because we are talking about 1942.2
Good post Black_Elk, also what do you use against allied fighters that destroy your transports because destroyers sometimes don’t always defend them.

RE: 1939 Scenario for the 1942.2 Map and Pieces
Okay, but won’t you mess which unit is who’s?
I like the idea on 1939 in 1942.2 because usually people use other Axis and Allies. -

Which type of units are you using for France and the Dutch?

RE: Chinese house rule
I didn’t mean that the IC in Manchuria is going to take china on J2 I know it will take a while to get tanks there. But have you ever tried putting a IC in Kwangtung it’s easier to take India and china even though it produces 2 at a time.
Would you stack your russian inf in Buryatia even it’s likely to be wipe out by Japan, because if I was Japan I would immediately attack it, well it’s 5 infantry and it has no back up so when you wipe it out you really don’t need to worry about russians coming down into Manchuria because it’s not worth Russia’s time and resources. Also about your question if I still had them and Moscow and Caucasus were in trouble yes I would. But I would not if they weren’t in trouble so your answer is no I would not.

RE: Strafing Sea Zone 37 (Indian Ocean) on Turn 1?
I see you have 2 destroyers and there none that could reach sz37. There is one in the Med but I believe it cannot reach it. There is another cruiser off the coast of India (I can’t think the number of the sz).Even if Egypt is taken over it’s still a strong attack and I never did a hit and run or strafing on that sz.

RE: Chinese house rule
Okay, usually on GB turn they don’t put their infantry there. If Japan builds a IC in Manchuria on J1 (which is a good move) they don’t need to bring in other troops. Also what do you mean (scarce) troop transports because were else do you use your transports (besides invading Honolulu or Alaska) they should be dropping troops in Asia. The 2 fighters starting in Asia is plenty to take china, so you don’t need to bring in any other aircraft. I think china should hold out on J4 or longer. Quickly back to the communist in china maybe there should be 2 russian inf starting in Anhwei, or Sinkiang, any ideas on that?

RE: Chinese house rule
How could the infantry in Burma make it to China since Japan can block it off. Adding an art to Szechuan I think wouldn’t be enough to counter attack the Japs but the art in Szechuan is good I would also add 2 inf, and 1 art to Sinkiang would be a pretty good counter attack because you got 4 inf, 2 art, and 1 fighter. An artillery in Yakutsk is great because I see Russia could get aggressive on Manchuria which force Japan to keep more troops in Manchuria then invading China
Plus the fighter in the Indian Ocean is better in the attacking of sz37 than defending China and using the russian inf I thought they were better fighting Germany, not saying it’s a bad idea maybe it’s a better idea. One idea is to give russia more troops in the east to defend China, remember they were communist in China.

RE: All the German openings: For Beginners
Okay, let me sum it up. You said in your post that it is good to stack in Bello, so I was trying to say if Russia moves a puny bait force into Ukr. on R2 so they could try to destroy your force that was trying to take Ukr. back and forget about the silly Romania/Bulgaria out flanking move. I was wondering if you would take the bait or let them keep it?
I also was not talking about attacking 1 territory from 2.

RE: Chinese house rule
Good point Argothair, Japan taking should happen, but I think it should not be so easily taken. I think it should be a bit harder and slower for Japan but not to long. Do you think China should on J2? Because that’s what happens. Plus a nonaggression pact between Russia and Japan makes China really easy to take if there is one.
About that rule here’s my idea of course Russia and Japan are not at war and if one attacks the other each territory they attack on that turn each territory gets 3 inf this rule applies to that round. Any other ideas on that would be awesome and on china.

RE: Kill Britain First (KBF) - Japanese Bombers?
I think the best thing the axis can do in this strategy is have Japan get really strong and take Calcutta, or Honolulu, or try to take Moscow, or San Francisco. Since the US is busy dealing with Germans try to take England it’s the perfect time for Japan to expand so Germany is a distraction for Japan.

Is the interceptor rule optional in Global?

RE: American Strategy (Video Added)
If the american bombers can get to china they could SBR the japanese factories on the chinese coast that would really hurt japan more than SBR on Tokyo.

RE: Alternate Setup for A&A 1942 2nd Edition
Just to be sure your japanese set up is to double their chinese coast fleet.
For Germany, I rather have extra DD with my BB than a extra TT, so my BB doesn’t die so easily.
Otherwise good ideas. :-D -
RE: Chinese house rule
Just original american controlled chinese territories and not japanese I think could be better.
oztea does your rule still apply even if there liberated.
Thanks guys keep up the good ideas. :wink:

RE: All the German openings: For Beginners
If Russia moves into Ukr. with a bait force which is like some inf maybe an artillery or tank on R2. But on G1 you moved Romania/Bulgaria forces into Poland to go stack in Bello and on G2 do you hit and run the bait, or pull forces to Romania/Bulgaria so they don’t out flank you or something else? What do you use to take out the DD in the Med and the BB attacking the CV isn’t the RAF destroy the BB even though you should do that attack. But still your advise on Germany is great. :-D

Chinese house rule
Since China can easily fall to Japan has anyone tried putting 2 infantry in Sinkiang and a house rule that is every 2 Chinese territory which is Yunnan, Szechwan, Anhwei, Sinkiang, Kwangtung, Kiangsu, and Manchuria, they get 1 free inf and can place it in any chinese territory the allies own. This makes China a little bit more tuff, not enough so that Japan will have a hard time taking it using a lot of it’s resources. It’s to have China fall with a bigger fight. Now if you make China to strong then Japan’s asian grip is very small to do anything, any thoughts or ideas on this?
If someone can make a house rule for Russia and Japan not at war because historically they weren’t at war so ideas on that would be great.

RE: Kill Britain First (KBF) - Japanese Bombers?
The axis in this strategy really don’t have much time. Because if they take to long the allies can really mess up their plan. Which either shortens the game or drags it out.
