That’s a better idea, especially since Japan is usually somewhat stretched to the limits on their declaration of war on the US.
Global 1943 Expansion, Revised
-
Good!
-
@The-Captain Doing a major setup fix for triplea. Well over a dozen errors. I don’t no how that happened lol.
Anyway, got em all, i think, except for Albania. i have it with the original Italian setup. Tank 2 INF. Cant find it listed under Germany or anywhere else. What is correct setup/Owner for Albania ?
Also, I have all the starting IPC correct but it’s showing some discrepancy on a few. Germany and Russia good.
JPN seems the most off, shows 59 and the USA 54. IDK if it’s the Expanded IPCs, they show active in the Game History.
UK off by 3. That may be them getting bonus Pacific IPC when they shouldn’t. Fiji, Samoa and Ceylon would add up to 3. Ceylon not activated ?
Italy Correct, so guessing they still own Albania just not sure on unit setup.
China off by 1. Shows 7 but only has 6 TTys.
France is correct with 4.
-
- Albania is Italian controlled - but unoccupied. In the same way as fx. Nigeria is UK controlled - but unoccupied.
- China has lost 6 territories (I’ll correct that now)
- Japan has captured enemy territories worth 47 IPC, which brings the total Japanese IPC Level up to 73 IPC. (I’ll correct that now)
- United States have captured territories worth 4 IPC - and lost territories worth 9 IPC. This brings the total US IPC Level up to 47 IPC.
- United Kingdom has captured territories worth 7 IPC - and lost territories worth 16 IPC.
I’ll go through it all within the next few days - good that you find those flaws now:+1:
-
Wow, so even at this late date the Allies still aren’t at their pre war economic levels. Good relief for the Axis. :)
-
@the-captain Right on. I’m gonna probably push out an update today and then start a test game. I can’t believe how many errors i had lol It’s gonna be a completely different game now lol
The Pacific may require some edit use for PUs at end turn. Idk. Right now you only have to do it for Dutch TTys sometimes but with ANZAC getting the axe, it may have created some other ones.
We’ll find out soon enough. That’s what test games are for. :) I’ll probably just start a Game thread so we can test that UK can post now.
Edit
Just checked and JPN is now correct. I discount there convoy damage and the NOs and we get 73. All the expanded TTY boosts work.USA is also now correct with 47 Yay :)
Edit2
Showing 48 for UK. Still off by 1. I’ll go through them again but that’s as close as we can get while by being wrong lol. Everyone else dialed in correctly -
@the-captain So I’m coming up with 50 PUs for UK and minus 2 for Gilberts for 48. Still off by 1.
Also, Alexandria not listed. I assume no units same as Italy in Albania ?
-
Remember that Celebes is worth 4 IPC.
I’ll check UK IPC level one of these days.
No units in Albania.
-
@the-captain right on. Yea Celebes showing up with the extra buck for JPN. If ANZAC/UK conquered Celebes at some point, that would make up for the extra buck.
I’ll roll with no dudes in Alexandria too then
-
@barnee
Yes, Alexandria is also unoccupied. -
OK. Now I got some time to get this 1943 setup
on map. It’s going on BBR version 5 based on way bigger map. I’ll just adjust the value on Celebes and other territories from BBR version 2. -
Sounds great.
The Expanded Tactical IPC Values for the Pacific islands and territories are outlined in the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion pg. 25.
Celebes is worth 4 IPC.
-
@the-captain I found a ton of more setup errors, so i’m going through the entire setup again. I can’t find anything for Siam. I assume JPN controlled no units ?
Edit
nvm Siam original JPN TTy -
You can always compare the pictures of the Set Up with the Set Up Charts.
This way you can easily see if there are any Controlled or Occupied territories - and/or sea zones.
Siam is Japanese Controlled - but Unoccupied.
-
@the-captain lol just did
-
@The-Captain wow been so long I forgot you guys did an update. I was like how could i screw up this bad lol
-
At the first page in this thread, we have posted pictures from History books - WWII Historical Atlas - to show the actual situation in Early 1943.
-
@the-captain Here’s revised 43 setup. Hope it’s big enough. :) The current triplea has 4 INF in Finland instead of 2. I edited them for the photo.
Edit
Had a little trouble posting. The Pics weren’t in order as taken so i had to do them individually. Got the unedited Finland with 4 INF. Everything else should be correct.Also on USA turn Natl Guard activates. Both have been fixed for next update.
-
So cool! Thank you very much!
-
@barnee
Looks great,I’m already looking forward to my next Global 1943 game:+1:
-
I just set up the Global 1943 Expansion Revised setup. It looks very good, I can’t wait to play!
I did notice a couple of errors though, regarding the German and Japanese setup.
German Setup
Romania seems to be missing here. I thought there were supposed to not be any units there, but I see from the pictures that Romania does have units in it.Japanese Setup
Guam is also listed in the Japanese setup. I see from the picture that Guam is Japanese-controlled, with two artillery, two fighters, two tacticals, and an airbase?Palau is listed as a captured territory (you have to place a National Marker in them), but it already starts out Japanese from game start. So that is unnecessary.
I counted the Japanese and UK total income, and I come out at 73 for Japan, and 46 for UK, while in the rules it’s stated that Japan has 74 and UK has 47. Am I missing something?
