I’m afraid not. Maybe on the weekend, I’m a bit busy. I think game’s norms/rules are all worked out.

@FranceNeedsMorePower

I’m up for it! Should we use battle calculators?

@j_stroyer

Good game. Your Pacific moves were intriguing and your China-India play kept me honest as Japan.

Germany Turn 3 Complete Global 1940 Game 37.tsvg

No, you should keep using it. I use it a lot. I just wanted to make sure this game was fair.

Round 3:

Germany:

Sea zone 91: +0.12 swing
Sea zone 125: +0.14 swing

Total for round 3: -0.26 swing against the Allies

Net Axis dice swing: +1.59 swing
Net Allies dice swing: -1.59 swing

@j_stroyer

US:
Sea zone 16: -0.62 swing

UK:
Yunnan: +0.26 swing
Anglo-Egyptian Sudan: +0.4 swing
Kenya: -1.25 swing

Italy:
Morrocco: +0.77 swing

Total for round 2: -3.56 against the Allies
Net Axis dice swing: +1.2 swing
Net Allies dice swing: -1.2 swing

I calculate strategic bombing raids seperately. The US raid on Paris is +0.17 swing in favor of the Allies since the AA missed, but the bomber slightly did less damage than on average.

Scramble? 3 Global 1940.tsvg

@FranceNeedsMorePower

I meant rules for school clubs. I updated the original post.

@FranceNeedsMorePower

As someone in a different high school club in another state, some thoughts (keep in mind the rules are different between states):

1. My school has specific process for getting clubs approved. Make sure to understand your school’s process (if there is one) before you start going any further.
2. Where I live, there are some male teachers who remember Axis and Allies from the 1980s. My impression from that and this forum is that most adults remember Axis and Allies as a 1980s thing and will be unaware that new versions exist. Still, they’re good candidates to be an advisor (if that’s required).
3. You can ask your friends if they want to join. Where I live you need a certain number of people to agree to join a club before it gets approved by the school. Your friends are probably the best way to get those initial commitments unless you’re advertising the proposal.
4. 1941 is probably the best game to use. TripleA would be useful if the club gets quite big, given that it’s challenging to get many game boards and pieces.
5. Don’t everything I say too seriously since I’ve never started a club myself (I’m only a member of one) and have little experience in this matter. If you want I can ask my friends who are club leaders for advice on being the head of a club, but that’s a late-stage thing to do, after the club’s already been approved.

@j_stroyer

I calculate the difference between the number of units the battle calculator says the attacker should end up with and what they actually finish the battle with.

@j_stroyer

All scramble in sea zone 97.
