@trig Japanese aircraft and bombardments will be used in the naval battle, Japan should
Not have both a large fleet AND a large landing force. They don’t have enough income to have both in time to hit the US with their surprise strike. This will only happen if Japan has put its complete focus on the US from the start of the game. No house rule is needed to combat a 💯 US focus by Japan.

@aldrahill said in Slowly house ruling GW36 into a G40/BBR/GW36 hybrid for 2-players:

@gen-manstein Finding this card confusing - so this is to roll for the ability to influence neutrals and turn them to your side?

Why not just do it so that 1-6 = pay bank for loses, 7 = pay 1 extra, 8 = pay 2 extra, 9-10 joins your side, 11-12 = joins your side plus reserves called up.

What are the numbers in the brackets on some of the countries mean?

You get all 3 territories in Saudi Arabia

@hbg-gw-enthusiast I would just add italicised texta clause saying something on the lines of “aircraft may not be placed on carriers during the place units phase” in that section, and a clause saying “newly built carriers may not be used to guarantee landing spots for fighters and tactical bombers.”
It is rather obvious is you look for it, but I think a FAQ or a additional clause is needed.

Thank you guys. I played a dozen games of A&A in my life, so I am far from an expert. I prefer asking than being wrong.

I’ve found that a couple sheets’ worth of paper “Light” and “Heavy” roundels works to disambiguate which tanks/cruisers/battleships/carriers/bombers are which. Not the prettiest option, but sure is the cheapest.

For instance:

Heavy roundels designate - Heavy Artillery (my homebrew artillery tech “Heavy Artillery Doctrine”, same stats except Costs +1, supports two infantry units), Heavy Tanks, Heavy Strategic Bombers, Heavy Cruisers, Heavy Carriers, Heavy Battleships

Light roundels designate - Light Tanks, Light Cruisers, Light Carriers, and I use “Light” roundels to indicate “Fast Battleships” as well, since they move faster than ‘standard’ battleships
