First post here but….something simple ive been tinkering with.

A new unit, the “Garrison”.

Rules: A Garrison is 10 IPC’s. The Garrison follows most of the same rules as an industrial complex EXCEPT they may only produce Infantry, Artilery, Destroyers, Transports.  Any units poduced at a Garrison cost +1 IPC more than their normal cost to reflect the cost of maintaining forces in far-flung locations. Garrisons do not recive the +2 units benifit from the Incresed Factory Production research, instead they produce units at normal prices with this research. A Garrison may be “upgraded” (takes effect on the next turn) to an Industrial complex for 10 IPCs IF a Victory City is also present in the territory. Once upgraded the Garrison becomes a factory in all respects. The Garrison unit is represented by one industrial complex piece. Industrial complexes are then represented by two industrial complex peices, placed side by side. Industrial complexes now cost 20 IPCs. An Industrial Complex can still be placed anywhere for its new incresed cost, and will replace any Garrisons present.

Adjustment to setup: The Industrial complex in Karelia (AA50) is reduced to a Garrison in both 41’ and 42’ setups. All others remain Industrial Complexes. The United Kingdom may place one Garrison in any territory it controls that contains a Victory City in 41’ and 42’, the Garrison is placed before the game begins. (I’m thinking of just limiting to East Canada, but its up to debate)

Rationale: In games ive played so far, the game breaks down in asia. Japan can get units where it needs them to be. And the Allies can not. Simply put, Japan just takes India, or Australia, and even egypt on occasions. It also builds an IC in either Manchuria, or India, and pumps out 3 Armored Divisons a turn…somehow this doesnt seem like the WWII ive learned about. To correct this im giving the allies a foot in the door in the pacific. The ability to produce low teir units at an incresed cost reflects the war in the pacific somewhat better. There were Austraian regements, Indian Regements, Canadian…etc. But this doesnt neccisarily represent raising them there, it can also represent “unseen transports” ferrying troops to the front in Egypt or other areas, hence the incresed cost. These naval units are always there, theoreticly in the background, and can be requisitoned by commanwealth commanders, reflected by purchasing them. Garrisons help other nations to reflect history as well, a French Garrison by the Germans, or Polish or Austro/Hungarian gets infantry to the Russian front a turn faster. An Italian Garrison in Egypt, if it conquers it. An American Garrison could represent a multitute of contexts, Free French, or other liberiated countries, perhaps even a Hawaiin or Alaskan Garrison. Lastly the Garrison rule serves also to curtail Japan, who in my games has a nasty habit of running the Mechanised Onslaught of Asia. With this rule Japan can put forces on the mainland that better represent the reality of the war. So no more Armored thrusts through the Soviet far East unless they want to invest heavily. Industrial complexes should be reserved for Industrialized Nations where an entire area has the capacity to pruduce tanks and bombers and battleships, and the game should reflect this more.

Thoughts?

J2 is my favorite
position your fleet so that at UK 1s collect income phase they get convoy raided in kuangtung, and borneo and malya if you can get your units there, and have your 4 bombers in siam, so you can bomb india into the stone age on J2
Anzac wont do anything to hurt you and when it comes around to your turn take 3/4 dutch east indies and the phillipines by boat, take kuangtung and shan state, crush china, ignore anzac and US mostly (except for pearl)

If the Soviets can attack Finland and win, its all theirs. So Germany might want to get there first.

Yes, the Soviets can attack pro-axis forces, or activate pro Allied territories before it is at war with the germans

This setup still has too much of an Axis tilt. The point about Japan attacking France is a good point. And I have had people mention this should have a Vichy rule.

US national objective for the homeland might go up to 15, and or the UK get some more units near Egypt (a fighter maybe)

I would like to see a future edition of Axis & Allies adopt War Room’s economic setup (Oil, Iron, OSR) could use cardboard token chips for resources instead of printed IPCs. Helps create differentiation between the powers. Some have certain resources in vulnerable places.

I would also perhaps like to see contested territory (like A&A 1914) be adopted for a Anniversary Edition successor game. Perhaps battles would last 2 rounds maximum, rather than the one of 1914 or limitless combat of older A&A. Perhaps instead of variable turn order, oil could be spent to make a crucial battle go one more round.

I have also wanted attacker targeting in A&A for a while, and that could be a variant on the colored dice.
(Attacker targeting means rolling units in groups by value. A roll of ‘2’ to hit means you can assign it to an enemy unit of equal or lesser value. Planes can shoot planes down, tanks shoot tanks, etc)

Axis and Allies D-Day has a card system that works similar to your idea.
On the global scale, its problematic. A random event might break the game wide open. To prevent this you would have to make them somewhat weak….and then if they are that weak, why even have them…

Following victory after victory, the German war machine pushes onward. Deep thrusts cut into the heart of the Soviet Union, threatening vital points across a broad front. Industrial centers such as Moscow and Leningrad are besieged, as the German army prepares an offensive to cross the Volga and conquer the oil fields to the south. The United Kingdom, ally to the Soviets, finds itself being strangled by a fleet of German U-boats, marauding the North Atlantic and sinking vital supplies from the Empire. Worse yet, the Japanese Empire has declared war on the western allies, and struck at the American Navy in a sneak attack at Pearl Harbor. In the chaos, their empire has expanded and absorbed the various colonies in the South Pacific. Their forces have pushed themselves to the limit, but now threaten bastions of western power such as India and Australia. The war has become global, and the great powers must engage in a total war, for the world stands on a razors edge, will the Axis war machine roll onward to triumph? Or can the allied powers stem the tide, and push back the enemies of the free world? The year is 1942, and the world is at war.

Alpha +3 (2nd Edition) Rules are in effect, All National Objectives and special rules.
Politically, the game begins as if it were the FIFTH turn. All powers follow any relevant restrictions. (Neutrality, etc)

Special Rule for Soviet naval units: Soviet Pacific naval units must remain adjacent to original Soviet territory while the Soviet Union is considered neutral in the Pacific Theater.

=+= OPTIONAL 1942 TECHNOLOGY PACKAGE =+=
As the war dragged on, breakthroughs in military technology changed the face of warfare. As an optional rule, some powers start with, or will gain automatic access to certain technologies on certain game turns. All players must agree to use the optional package. Research attempts can be made normally by all powers, re-roll as normal if you already have the indicated breakthrough. You gain access to these breakthroughs before the Research and Development phase on the indicated turn.

Germany - (Turn 1) Advanced Artillery & Super Subs, (Turn 3) Rockets & Advanced Mechanized Infantry, (Turn 6) Jet Fighters
Japan - (Turn 1) Super Subs, (Turn 3) Long Range Aircraft

United States - (Turn 1) War Bonds, (Turn 3) Paratroopers, (Turn 6) Heavy Bombers & Long Range Aircraft
Soviet Union - (Turn 3) Advanced Artillery, (Turn 6) Increased Factory Production
United Kingdom - (Turn 1) Radar, (Turn 3) Paratroopers

The reason that transport is there alone is to tie down that sub. Germany can use it in an attack somewhere…but it will be giving the UK a free transport essentially.
If it stays there, it is in a raid zone, and the UK or US must make an effort to kill it or the UK will lose cash on their turn.

It’s my way of getting a little raid damage against the UK.

They are both for 40.2
There are 2 threads because one is a 1941 setup and one is a 1942 setup.

Yes, I have been away for quite a while, my new job has played havoc with my opportunities to wargame, however some fans of my 1941 setup on Facebook asked me to create a 1939 setup so here we are.

The world stands on the brink of catastrophe. The rising tide of fascism approaches the breakwater of history, as the dictatorial regimes of Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, and The Italian Empire seek to expand their rule across the entire planet. A decade of instigation, skirmishes, and attempts to placate these tyrants have failed. And so the world plunges into a new World War. The German Reich, wants “Living Space” to expand it’s nation, which it plans to absorb from it’s west and it’s east. The Italians seek to restore the glory of the Roman Empire and dominate the entire Mediterranean basin. While the Japanese Empire desires to flush out the western colonial powers from Asia, and establish a Pan-Asian Co-Prosperity sphere, with themselves at it’s apex. Their goals are lofty, and if successful these powers would establish a new world order. However, standing against them, weary from the last war, disorganized by purges and economic depressions stand the Allied Powers. The strength of The United Kingdom, its Commonwealth and French Republic may be waning, but they will not see the world fall into a new dark age without a fight. The Soviet Union, stands as their unlikely ally, since it too finds itself in the cross-hairs of the fascist wolves. Will it be able to withstand the coming storm? Though the new world, and the United States stands reluctant to spill blood and treasure in this most trying of times. Political willpower is hard to come by, and though the economy has begun to recover and some strength has been regained, the world holds it’s breath in hope they will decide in time to rescue the world from a new dark age. The year is 1939, and the war to decide the fate of the world has begun.

2nd Edition Rules are in effect with a modified National Objectives package.
Politically the game begins as if it were two turns before a normal 1940 start.
Germany is at war with France, UK, and ANZAC
Japan is at war with China

Special Rules

• Soviet naval units in the Pacific Theater must remain adjacent to original Soviet territory while the Soviet Union is neutral to Japan. (Or until Moscow has been captured)

• The Japanese Kamikaze special rule is deactivated when using the 1939 setup.

• Italy, while not at war may not move naval units out of the Mediterranean. The may declare war at any time, however unless Paris has already been captured by Germany their combat moves may not include attacks on any game space occupied by French or British units on the turn they declare war.

• The Benelux Faction (Dutch & Belgians) are an independent faction aligned to no power. However, when and if any territory they posses is attacked by an Axis power, all Benelux territories become treated as Pro-Allied

• Factories built on Chinese territory are no longer destroyed/removed if liberated by Allied forces.

@pacifiersboard Italy is only restricted on who it can attack on the turn it declares war. (and Paris is not already in Axis hands)
The restriction is only that it can’t attack territories that have units on that first turn.

No, but I wish we did have one. Would help for a Vassal module

What is DeGaulle Neutrals setting?
Does it allow for different neutral rules? So they don’t activate globally if any single one is attacked?

I was intending that both Italy and Germany could get the 2 IPC oil bonus for presence/control or vice versa (if Germany has control, Italy needs presence, if Italy has control then Germany only needs presence.) So I guess land unit presence for both makes sense, but that means you can’t leave them unoccupied, which isn’t what I want.

Intention is if either has control, they get it and don’t need a unit. If the other has a unit while the other has control, then they get it too.

Bombers are too mindbogglingly powerful. Something needs to be done to nerf their strategic damage output.
Possibly, require 2 of a color to kill a unit under production, rather than just 1 of a color. This reduces a bomber from possibly killing 4 units under construction to a maximum of 2.

I would like to see a future edition of Axis & Allies adopt War Room’s economic setup (Oil, Iron, OSR) could use cardboard token chips for resources instead of printed IPCs. Helps create differentiation between the powers. Some have certain resources in vulnerable places.

I would also perhaps like to see contested territory (like A&A 1914) be adopted for a Anniversary Edition successor game. Perhaps battles would last 2 rounds maximum, rather than the one of 1914 or limitless combat of older A&A. Perhaps instead of variable turn order, oil could be spent to make a crucial battle go one more round.

I have also wanted attacker targeting in A&A for a while, and that could be a variant on the colored dice.
(Attacker targeting means rolling units in groups by value. A roll of ‘2’ to hit means you can assign it to an enemy unit of equal or lesser value. Planes can shoot planes down, tanks shoot tanks, etc)

Hmmmm, I didn’t know people were struggling to take France as Germany. The depleted infantry in West germany is so they don’t take paris on turn 1. I assumed that if the UK fighters were sent to Paris that Germany could threaten an easy Sea Lion, or bomb the crap out of London.

Many are saying that there is a glitch in the Belgium situation, and are looking for solutions, including one that represents the bypassing of the Maginot line.
I have yet to think something up.

Yea Im not a fan of the fact that no units start under production.

US # 2 Changed to allow Lend Lease of Civilian goods on Red/White/Black instead of a reroll.

Yea, I just looked up the facebook discussion on it. I was mistaken.
A good plan for China then is to save their Iron to pay this penalty.
