The convoy in sz6 is for Sweden ore transports during non winter. So you want it to sz3. Making UK go out and get it then. I can move it to sz3.
@general-6-stars Just consider the route that Germany would transport pig iron from sweden and how direct it would be to go to Germany
Ya. I moved it to sz 3
@general-6-stars I dont think National Okrung should have one, its too marginal

If your referring to air base it’s there based on lend lease where figs landed from Alaska.
@general-6-stars
Following. Looks awesome!
OK. I think this is it for map for now. AB added, convoy boxes and lend lease chart with box locations. The motorized 1 move dash border with motorize 1 move only arrows.
Calm down. Japan can still gets tanks to Moscow turn 4. ( Killin me ) !
I would like to add the Burma road with the Hump so UK could send 1 Art or Inf across hump
to Yunnan if open and then to Chunking if territories are china controlled.
OK. Did a turn 1. Just starting to test. But with added stuff and piece changes and what few can do made turn 1 very interesting. A ton of little stuff happened.
Russia
Convoy raided German ore.
Took West Russia and had a stack In Karelia. Didn’t do so good on defense Germany brought 5 planes but no aa kills. That hurt a bit. Lost Leningrad. Russia got a artillery for lend lease. Placed in Archangel. Persia will be a good spot as war goes on. Then stacked Stalingrad.
Germany
Attacked Leningrad. Took that. 2 subs and a fig attacked UK fleet. Epic. UK scramble 1 fig due to rule for AB. BB survived damaged and UK took out a sub based on UK destroyer present and also got a bonus dog fight plane kill too.
So Germany lost 2 subs and the fig.
UK had a damaged BB and a transport. The tranny did not get a plane hit on 3 defense rolls.
Attacked UK Cruiser with Tac and fig and UK Cruiser got a plane kill as it sunk.
Stacked Libya and bought a fig and navy to protect trannys. Gonna be interesting to see how Germany’s gonna have to take Cairo and hold Tunis.
UK.
Drop paratrooper in Norway. Just stack
London see. Took pacific island and attacked japan fleet off of East Indies. Did have the Cruiser pic the BB for ship kill instead of plane kill. Since japan had 1 Tac and 1 fig and didn’t matter based on defender choose plane.
India no threat yet.
Japan
Convoy raided US and attacked China. Got 2 territories but China got 1 back and is stacking the Chungking. Moved ships back home for shore shots and a japan paratrooper landed In Yunnan.
US
Not much do do. Took Solomon’s and raided a japan convoy box. Bought a factory For Hawaii.
Hard for US to get going but that’s the norm.
Changes I’m making for next game are IC cost 12, transports cost 7.
Will see what happens with this.
So below will be the after turn 1 pics.
Since I did play like 3 turns of normal oob 42 game and setup this advance change and other stuff is way better. Just gives you so much more small stuff you can do. Of course gotta test and will see if there’s any victory city changes and etc. on the map is 4 Russian yellow squared boxes for lend lease placement and tokens with squares in sea zones and tokens only are the convoy boxes. It’s a flat out -3 icps for production on chart. But keep in mind your Tac bombers can convoy raid a box in combat and country loses 3 icps from there income and must go to the bank.
Will see if this is to strong for allies.
Be cool if Germany had a few Tacs hitting convoys in Atlantic.
Granted I maybe playing somethings wrong but it is what it is. Will have more players to help also to see way more different stuff. I think this is gonna be a awesome game. But just me.

yea that’d be sweet
End turn 2. Funny as turn goes on u say oh that countries to strong. Then oh ok it’s fine. Lol
UK and US landed in Europe maybe a bit early but needs to force Germany to start defending at home.
Japan wipeout China. China defense was a bit weak on rolls. But UK nit picking japan south and US starting to gear up and ic in Hawaii gonna help. Can build 4 units there.
Will see if allies are to strong in game. May have to remove a few of larrys tweaks for that allies bid of 20.
End of turn 3. UK did take its Tac and hit Germany convoy box for 3 icps which they must pay to bank out of there income stack.
Russia holding there own. Japan ground just can’t go into Russia since there’s a India stack and Russians to the north where they just can’t abandon Chungking. That stronger China stack did help allies. Japan might get to Calcutta in a bit but will see. Germany has to deal with UK US landings now so how much push can they do east. We shall see.
One thought on next game setup.
May have to add 1 more German sub.
Got turn 4 in this morning. Very interesting. After Germany’s turn the axis are at the victory condition of controlling 12 victory cities.
Russia not many options yet. So far as lend lease have received 4 art. Dam. No tanks or figs yet but holding Stalingrad and now the main threat is going to be middle east with Japs sending in more reinforcements to Chungking to hold and possible threat to middle east with Germany coming in top door. But now Germany has it’s issues with losing Tunis. Germany also had to protect Rome and Paris and not much going to east front. This will help Russia hopefully and maybe get a counter attack some where. Dam a fig on LL would help. LOL.
Oh The axis have cut off 3 of the LL landing spots on map and Persia is the only 1 open now so that is going to be huge for Russia to keep control of.
So the allies were forced to take Tunis to prevent the axis win which was probably best option since Germany stacked Paris and some had to go to Rome so US couldn’t do a landing there. Also with taking out the German Med fleet. Now Africa is cut off for axis and allies will have to decide if going for Cairo is better than Paris with helping middle east and Russia. But allies still need some kind of D Day landing.
Also if allies can at least control 1 China territory when US plays there turn China can place 3 Inf there. Another great option for allies. Japan does have a slight chance to get Calcutta but will see if they can control Chungking and also get Calcutta. but India has other ideas.
As mentioned before it was great to see a beefed up China plus 1 move only in Asia and Siberia so now Japan has to work at getting cities and hold without that dam tank blitz LOL.
As map shows UK went to Africa. Both allies can come back to Paris but how much ground can you take from Tunis. In pic it shows how you can hit a convoy box with a UK tac and force Germany to pay 3 Icps to the bank right away for getting ore shipments cut off or ships sunk.
Japan basically just got Inf and a IC and are now defending to hold cities and US will be forced to do something soon maybe. Will see. US is splitting income for both sides mainly and that’s the way it should be to a certain point.
So axis at 11 victory cities and will see what happens.
Incomes after 4 turns
USSR - 23
Germany - 48
UK - 33
Japan - 33
USA - 54
Axis - 81
Allies - 110
Double click on maps to get a good closeup.
Turn 5.
Russia just taking back west Russia to keep German’s blocked and of course Germany taking back. Russia again only got an Art but still helps and placed only in Persia.
Germany not doing much and lost the sub by Morocco off of UK convoy box and really just built Inf. Oh the German’s did lose there Baltic fleet finally.
UK left a ground in Tunis and brought back rest of fleet and ground with tranny’s to London. Looks like maybe a Baltic landing in Leningrad or Finland. UK has to go that route to relive pressure in Kras area and to also help China.
UK tac hit Sweden ore convoy again. No German surface ship to contest plane attacks…
Japan just moved ground up in Asia and hit the 2 UK convoy boxes in Indian ocean.
Japan’s gonna have to do something quick and axis together to get another point. Cairo gonna be in trouble and maybe Japan should have gone for Calcutta and then just come back for Chungking ? US is probably going to move up next turn and force Japan to attack the main fleet and hope Japan loses all there planes ?
Somebody gotta make a move here. lol
US holding its own in Atlantic. Gib seazone good spot to help Med and hold Tunis and keep German’s from landing again in Africa.
Pics below show end of turn 5. granted some play may not be correct according to master players but it is what it is.
Disreguard the US ground troops on Caroline Islands. Forgot to move back.
Compared to 42 OOB this seems to have way more options and more action.
Turn 6.
Forgot to report this yesterday. Not looking good for axis. Have some changes in mind need to tweak for next game.
Will have to play a few more turns.
US moved fleet with no Japan threat to homeland and China back in the game.
Thinking as I thought was allies gonna be to strong which is good.
Be more updates in a bit. Swamped at work weekends.
G General 6 Stars referenced this topic on
OK. This is the map now with just a tweak or color change to victory city chart circles.
Will start a new game after we play my 41 game this Saturday. There will be a few setup changes for allies. Seem to be to strong as of now.
Ready now to test play some. Hopefully this is the final map. lol
Will tweak a few setups for allies based on being to strong last game.
OK. Got the updated map and setup done. Will have a game Saturday.
