Hello Everyone! I made a thread a while back asking for feedback on additional unit stats for some upcoming games of Global 1940 that I would be playing with some friends. After a couple of games, and some more additions and modifications I thought I would share the rules and units that we were using to enhance our games. I hope you guys enjoy them and also if you have any feedback or suggestions, I would love to hear them!

I was looking over the pictures and realized that the escort carrier did not have a defense value. In our games they defend on a 1.
Have you checked out Historical Board Gaming? They carry tons of markers, tokens, additional pieces and sculpts for Axis and Allies and Global War. I think they will be right up your alley for what you are looking for.
Do you still use these rules when playing A&A Classic? Also how did using though those rules go for you and your other players over the years?
I am just curious. What is your thought process behind these changes?
It has to be the good old rank and file infantry! Nothing beats a solid meat shield supported by artillery and tanks slowing pushing toward the enemy
In all the games that I have played I will have to say that AA guns are the least purchased. I might be able to count the number I have seen purchased on one hand, it is that low. As SS said, AAA needs some form of buff to make it useful.
Oh, thank god! Just trying to cover my bases you know
Narvik,
Unfortunately for this game, I will not be using the suggestion that you provided. That being said, I will see about using them for the next game I hold after this one. Again though, thank you for the suggestions!
Narvik,
Your ideas make complete sense and seem to work in theory, the only thing is that it is clear that we have very different ideas on how these additional units should be implemented. You are coming form the stance that these should be direct upgrades to the normal units, while I am looking at it with the idea that these units should only flesh out the available unit roster. As I said, I like your ideas and might use them for a different game but for this one, I think it I will be sticking to the rough values I made in my original post. Thanks again!
