Chaos in the Balkans:
Hungary and Romania are at war, Germany has annexed Austria, Yugoslavia suffered an unfortunate die role and has been forced to disintegrate into a Pro-Fascist Croatian state and a smaller Serbia. Italy managed to seize Albania without loss, and Czechoslovakia is reinforcing its border with the Nazis.
The UK has pledged to declare war on any power invading Greece.

Swedish Disaster:
The Swedes attempted to peacefully take over Norway to prevent any major nations from entering Scandinavia, but the plan backfired. Not only did another unfortunate die role cause the Norwegians to resist, but the German and British players were offended by the assault, and Germany turned a blind eye to a British force that liberated the Norwegians and devastated Sweden’s hopes of a powerful, neutral, United Scandinavian state.

Spain in Flames:
The civil war rages on in Spain, just as a deadly naval encounter ended in mutual annihilation for the Nationalists and Republicans. The free world does not want a Fascist Spain, and the U.S. Player has sent generous air aid to the Republicans. With Franco’s Army of Africa having headed for the mainland, I, as France, took advantage and seized their Moroccan colony. Unfortunately, I earned a -1 diplomacy points for this “aggressive” act.
1942.2 : case for Zero IPC Territory
-
Hi guys,
I wonder if any gameboard players have invented something about all these territories with no economic value.
Here is one, feel free to add up yours below:
When such Territory or Island is captured, give the new owner a one time 1 IPC bonus.
Theme: National pride & morale improvement.If such territory or island is exchanged between Powers, the 1 IPC bonus work both sides.
It still worth zero IPC when calculating income.
What do you think?
Can this minimal bonus might changed balance or just make an incentive for more action? -

@baron-Münchhausen In the case of Russia, Moscow should be 9 and some of the other 1 IPC areas in the east should be Zero. Some Afrikan areas could be zero, New Guinea could be 2 IPC.
As far as your idea, what areas would become zero? (e.g. “When such Territory or Island is captured”)

Hi IL,
I can see that some TTy in Siberia did not worth a real boost in economy.Your suggestion made me think about a way to expand my first idea a little bit more, even if it is not truly accurate/realistic from a geo-economic POV.
When invading a Zero IPC island TTy with an amphibious assault, if winning get 2 IPCs.
If defending side won the battle, he get 1 IPC.If it is a Zero IPC continental TTy, the invader gain 1 IPC.
It remains a bonus given through the result of a combat. No additional economic value to keep such islands on subsequent rounds.
That way, it is an incentive to fight over these TTys nonetheless.
