I like the setup information for Axis and Allies Global Second Edition 1939 and was wondering if there is a setup for the global game for 1936 which include the Italian - Ethiopian conflict, or if there is global setup starting in 1937 which would primarily include China and Japan?

COMMENTS FROM HUMAN: I don’t know if the setup is copied from somewhere else but it’s still cool to see an AI try to make a variant even if it’s unbalanced and a little messed up. It looks like Japan is totally screwed in this version. Libya is vacant? France has 0 income?? LOL It also seems like it forgot about the Benelux and Germany has their navy in-port. Lots of fun.
-
Wow. That’s a smart AI.

@superbattleshipyamato I tried to make a cold war variant with it. I’ll try again when I am available to play with it again. I probably need to state each nation and give it examples of what a good cold war setup is (if you give it a link it will read the webpage for you) I found a random txt file in the “sources” it gives me in the 1939 variant (mostly to the a&a wiki 1939 setup and the discussion boards) but at the bottom there was a random website with a 1939 setup but it looked incomplete. The ai does a good job web-crawling.

I can’t wait!

Sea Zone 128: 1 destroyer, 1 transport
Sea Zone 129: 1 transport
Sea Zone 135: 1 destroyer, 1 transportThere are a few additional rules that need to be known for this variant:
The Communist-Aligned power is not allowed to attack the Soviet Union or any other Communist-Aligned countries.
The Western-Aligned power is not allowed to attack the United States or any other Western-Aligned countries.
The United States and the Soviet Union are not allowed to form an alliance with any other power.
The Communist-Aligned power can only declare war on the Western-Aligned power if the United States or the Soviet Union has been attacked first.
The Western-Aligned power can only declare war on the Communist-Aligned power if the United States or the Soviet Union has been attacked first.
Victory is determined by the total number of victory cities controlled by a power at the end of a round. Victory cities are Washington, D.C., London, Moscow, Berlin, Paris, Rome, Tokyo, and Shanghai.
The game ends after a set number of rounds or when one power controls all victory cities on the board.
Here are the national objectives for each power:
United States:
Collect 10 IPCs if the United States controls all of its original territories.
Collect 5 IPCs if the United States is at war and has at least one land unit in France.
Collect 5 IPCs if the United States is at war and has at least one land unit in the Philippine Islands.
Collect 5 IPCs if the United States controls all of the following territories: Midway, Wake Island, Guam, and the Hawaiian Islands.
Collect 5 IPCs if the United States is at war and has at least one land unit in any two of the following territories: Normandy/Bordeaux, Holland/Belgium, Southern France, and Western Germany.
Soviet Union:
Collect 5 IPCs if the Soviet Union is at war and controls any three original Axis territories.
Collect 5 IPCs if the Soviet Union is at war and controls all of its original territories.
Collect 2 IPCs per territory if the Soviet Union controls Novosibirsk, Russia, and any other four of the following territories: Archangel, Baltic States, Belarus, Karelia S.S.R., Kazakhstan, Soviet Far East, Ukraine, and/or West Russia.
Communist-Aligned:
Collect 5 IPCs if the Communist-Aligned power controls all of its original territories.
Collect 2 IPCs per turn if the Communist-Aligned power is at war and controls at least one of the following territories: Burma, Hunan, Shan State, and/or Yunnan.
China:
Collect 6 IPCs if China controls all of its original territories.
Collect 1 IPC per territory if China controls at least one territory.
Western-Aligned:
Collect 5 IPCs if the Western-Aligned power controls all of its original territories.
Collect 5 IPCs if the Western-Aligned power is at war and has at least one land unit in any two of the following territories: Normandy/Bordeaux, Holland/Belgium, Southern France, and Western Germany.
Collect 5 IPCs if the Western-Aligned power is at war and has at least one land unit in any two of the following territories: Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya.
Collect 5 IPCs if the Western-Aligned power is at war and has at least one land unit in any two of the following territories: Greece, Yugoslavia, and/or Albania.
In terms of political situations in the board, the Communist-Aligned power consists of China and the Soviet Union, while the Western-Aligned power consists of the United States, the United Kingdom, and France.
At the start of the game, the United States, the United Kingdom, and France are in control of West Germany, while the Soviet Union is in control of East Germany. The game is set up to reflect the political realities of the Cold War, with the Communist-Aligned power and the Western-Aligned power facing off against each other in a tense global struggle for influence.
As for finishing touches to the rules, one important consideration is the use of nuclear weapons. In this variant, the use of nuclear weapons is not allowed, as it would likely result in the destruction of the entire world and therefore end the game prematurely.
Another important rule is that movement of units is restricted by the borders of countries. This means that a unit may not move through a neutral territory unless it is capturing that territory, and may not move through an enemy territory unless it is attacking that territory.
Finally, it is worth noting that supply lines are an important consideration in this game. Each unit must be connected to a friendly territory by a chain of contiguous friendly territories in order to be able to move and fight. This means that players must carefully plan their movements and ensure that their units are always connected to friendly territory.
Overall, these rules and considerations help to create a rich and engaging gameplay experience that captures the tension and strategic complexity of the Cold War era.

Barring the western navy in sz 127 and stuff like that it would be fun to try it in TripleA to see the madness
