are all you need to know about the league.
(Though the balanced mod topics are optional. You can play either balanced mod or vanilla G40. You just need to agree with your enemy on a common version)
And if you never played online (via the forum) with triplea, this post might be good: https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/17147/gargantua-s-k-i-s-s-triplea-instructions

computers are sometimes a bit pesky 
I guess I’m okay with everything that happened. So no worries.
I would also be fine if you still want to move the chinese fig. Feel free to edit.
I’ll wait with the italian turn.
Oh boy, it’s absolutely beautiful!
Did you bought that table specifically for the game? It fits just too good 
Interesting AAR!
Germany is buying a lot more Infantry than I ever did. Also I’m curious how japan can now really start grabbing territory from the allies.
Did Japan consider attacking the 12 russians in amur? With waiting that long before declaring war on the allies, this might have been a good use for all the aircraft these turns.
By the way, I always wondered, what the advantage is of putting american fleet in SZ 102.
Looking forward to your updates!
I don’t like that, but I since there were no battle in the pacific, I wouldn’t know why I shouldn’t allow it.
Go ahead.
…will be here soon!
So I guess… congratulations to everyone involved in running this site!
Hello all,
I’ve made a small reference document for AA1940 pacific 2nd edition that i’d like to share.
The goal was in the first place to act like a reminder (and explanation) for things like shore bomb., convoy raiding, strategical bombing, … Things that often get forgotten in my experience.
Second to minimize the constant need for passing the rulebook between the players for things like national objectives and unit characteristics.
Tell me what you think

PS: aren’t there attachements in this forum?

Hey there!
I just saw your video on the Grasshopper.
Awesome stuff you have here. I like the approach of just changing the map, which makes it probably very easy to get going.
I think though, you should use the opportunity to give cities, canals, (important) territories and maybe the planet itself your own names. It will certainly add to the feel of the game and will feel more lively than moving from “R16” into “City” and such.
I’d also have nothing against giving the nations a different name. Could still resemble the model-countries, but even a small change would be awesome for immersion I think.
Kind regards,
Koala
Glad to hear that
That american bomber taught me also something new. I never thought of air only vs AAA guns before. But it makes a lot of sense.
Sadly no, because I only own pacific at the moment.
When I change this fact in the future, there will be most certainly one for europe and one for the global map, too.
Till then here is an updated version squeezed to four pages.
ht tp://files.simon-lenz.de/aa_1940pa_2nd_reference_2016-04-06.pdf (/e most up to date link in first post)
It is intended to fold the whole thing on the columns, so it fits in the Game boxes. If everything works the turn sequence should be on top of that pile, and every player should have its own copy.

@trulpen said in trulpen (X) vs. koala (A+11), G40 vanilla:
No frenchies?
Yeah, I might be missing something, but it basically just has negative effects for me
Few more IC in total for the Allies, but all in western europe. And it snatches income from the British away. If there would be more italian units, I might consider having another power between italy and germany, but that’s in the current state of the map also not really that big of a deal.
Heyhey,
before I can do my turn I need some rule explanation.
TripleA doesn’t allow me to move russian troops into china.
Russians may not move land units over land owned by the chinese
I somehow can’t conclude where this is coming from. Can you help me there?
The political screen also tells me that china and russia have a neutral relationship. I would expect us to be allied since the russian entry into the war…
Is this actual correct behaviour?

Arrg, my edit needs another edit…
For some reason I thought, that the Gold Coast was a neutral territory, so I thought I’ll get the british objective by capturing Cyprus. Since this is not the case, I’ll move the american back to egypt.
Sorry for the hassle.
