    • RE: New to G40...will not playing w/NOs break the game?

      I read the whole thing by the way, ha. And thank you for the detailed opinion, helps a lot.

      In a general sense I’ve always felt NOs to be severally limiting to strategies for the game as it incentivizes certain tracks of behavior in the game on both sides, making it much more predictable. I could using NOs for territories rich in some sort of strategic resource historically however.

    • New to G40...will not playing w/NOs break the game?

      I was curious about this. I have not yet played Global 1940, but have played other versions all without NOs as a lot of times it makes the game somewhat more predictable.

    • RE: India Complex for UK - usually a bad idea?

      @axis_roll - yes, but having that complex in India would allow a trading back and forth for Caucus as well. It also puts the Axis in danger of losing Caucus from Russia and India then. With time being on the Allies’ side, I think an India complex is a good strategy while US and UK slowly build an invasion force and negate a Japanese front against Russia…

    • RE: India Complex for UK - usually a bad idea?

      It sounds like the taking back and forth of India by the UK is actually a really great strategy to halt the Japanese spamming of tanks, and will hold off their ability to really open an effective new front against the USSR. Because they never get to establish a full turn with the IC.

      And if you take the 60-40 spending ratio for the US which @DoManMacgee was mentioning, and buy one bomber a turn to send to UK and SBR Germany every turn…I don’t see how the Axis can win.

      …and if Japan then gives up on India realizing how much money is has wasted, US can flip the ratio and spend more on the Atlantic to start landing forces in western europe or add even more bombers and just go after Italy.

      So I guess the real question is what can the Axis do against this? Roll for a Radar Tech and hope for the best with the Can Openers into the USSR?

    • India Complex for UK - usually a bad idea?

      I was thinking about ways to slow Japan so that Japan doesn’t sneak up the back door on Russia late game, and was thinking about a first turn UK purchase of a Complex to push east on Japan or just keep them distracted enough to halt their growth.

      On turn one I would fly over the Egypt fighter and move the tank into Persia, plus the 2 INF in Trans-Jordan. Than, use the transport in SZ35 to pick up 1 INF + 1 ART and reinforce India some more. Basically, giving up Africa for a short period to America can come in to take back Africa mid to late game. I’d supply as much as I could to India, while still putting pressure on Germany with either a Polar Express and/or France or NW Europe invasion.

      Any strong opinions on this strategy?

      Was thinking that America’s prime objective would be to totally slam Germany and Italy with Bombers and do max damage while slowly building for the take back of Africa and eventually western Europe. America and UK would have to supply a few fighters throughout the game to protect Moscow as well…

    • RE: Oil Rules for A&A Anniversary?

      Could you send me your oil maps?

      I also kind of feel like Oil should impact the cost or quantity of units like tanks, naval units and air units rather than given an IPC boost…

    • RE: Oil Rules for A&A Anniversary?

      Well the G40 Oil rules do have it where you get 1 IPC boost for the select territories that have oil and that ave an oil derrick erected. Wonder if applying that rule to AA50 would break it…

      Oil nations for G40 are according to the House Rule are:
      -All Dutch Islands
      -Columbia, Venezuela, Bolivia
      -Central US
      -Scotland
      -Western Canada, Alaska
      -Alexandria, Cairo, Tobruk, Trans-Jordon
      -Union of South Africa
      -Romania
      -Iraq
      -Persia
      -Caucasus, Ukraine
      -West India, Burma

    • Oil Rules for A&A Anniversary?

      We are thinking of spicing up our game a little bit by implementing Oil in some way to Anniversary. Does anyone have a house rule out there for AA50 that doesn’t break the game too much?

      I’ve seen rules for Global 40 and the Global War series, but none so far for AA50…
