Figure this might be obvious but im unable to find the answer. Can the Comintern and Allies share sea zones?

Thanks for any help or info.

However as far as I am aware, the Comintern cannot escort Allies convoy lines.

@jbuckbuddy, from Rule 0.5, as stated above: “Major Powers that are not at war with each other may freely share sea zones and do not affect each other.”

@trig IIRC the wording is “Republican Spain aligns to the USSR if attacked” which can be a bit linguistically confusing. I agree that Republican Span is the one that needs to be attacked.

@Chris_Henry
I agree that the Allies mostly have their elite units in the Special Operations Expansion already. But there are some units among which you mentioned that deserve some attention. However I am not posting this from an official HBG point of view, but merely to scratch the surface of what could or might one day be. I had a similar issue back then with the Elite of the Soviet Union expansion. Designing it in a similar fashion as the German variant was not possible, because of the specific way Soviet elite units developed to be just that. So halfway the design I had to decide to start over again from a different angle and Soviet units became elite by rewarding. It could be a similar game mechanic by which the Allied Elite could be designed. Maybe there are alternatives. But it is off topic to go into that very deep and also I don’t want to give away any rudimentary ideas that exist already.
But on your list it contains some units I also have on my wish list as a player. As a designer I can only say that such an expansion is not (yet) in the making. People could use the Allied units from the Special Forces Expansion and house rule them. That is one of the fun things of the game. You can mix drinks as you can mix expansions to add the flavor to the game as you wish it to be.
So I can’t really answer your question, because I am not officially searching, but I am curious which units th e community thinks are elite units and also why. They could be regular army units who did something seemingly impossible.

Vichy units are not in Paris, so nothing happens to them when Paris is liberated.

Only taking Southern France makes them surrender, pending clarification on if an when the are to be replaced by German units.

It would take two turns. See rule 8.4 (1936v.3) « Transporting allied units ».

Note that if you play with the Canada at War expansion, and you replace the Americans with Canadians in your example, it can all be done in the same tun, as all the Commonwealth units move together (Canada National reference sheet v.3.1).

Thanks again GHG! I know the difference between a territory and a minor nation :)

I must have misread that rule somewhere to read territory when that wasn’t the case!

And again, I definitely overlooked the word Attacked in the reference sheets!

Thanks guys, I was wondering if there was anything specific about Paris being liberated.
But what you guys said seems to make sense.

@sjelso Ozteas 41 is the best mod for G40 imo.

Sorry I may have misunderstood your question. Not real familiar with the Global war game. Seems way cool though : )
