Hi all.

I’ve been playing a bit of 1st edition, and I’m wondering if it is still possible to find a FAQ. I don’t seem to have my print out any more. :-(

It’s not easy, you’ll probably lose most of China to the FEC, and you’ll have to start from scratch in South East Asia. You’re also giving the Americans free rein in the Pacific. It’s easier to take advantage of ANZAC’s low income to keep a small fleet in sz63, maybe conquer NZ and Solomons/NB, and keep them bottled up, while attacking Calcutta and US fleet.

No problem. I dont own it and havent played it. I did take the time to post the links (found them in my travels) and read them…to help you AND others that may be asking similar questions.

I’m happy to have been of service.

You may not mix Chinese resources (units) with that of other nations.

@CWO:

@knp7765:

Yes, the Pacific 1940 2nd Edition uses the thick, heavy duty cardboard like Europe 1940. Not that thin stuff like in Pacific 1940 1st edition.

And as I recall, the roundels in the 2nd edition of Pacific 1940 and Europe 1940 are both printed on thick, black-backed cardboard.Â In the 1st edition, I think one of the games had white-backed roundels.

You’re right Marc.

@Fishmoto37:

First game of global after six rounds. We averaged about one hour for each round. Two players and first global for each of us. I am having trouble posting more than one photo with each post. So will make three posts for three photos of setup after six rounds. Edit: If I use my sons digital SLR camera I cannot post even one photo.

@Fishmoto37:

@BJCard:

Interesting…

No british land forces in South Africa? I tend to buy at least 2 ground forces down there every turn.

Soviet Battleship survived? If I’m Germany I wouldn’t let it past denmark- hence it is going to probably die.

German Carrier in the med? Interesting. How does Italy have its Battleship? Did you buy one or did the UK not do the Taranto raid?

I purchased the German carrier with two fighters to help Italy defend the Med. No the U.K. did not do the Taranto raid. On G1 took out one battleship, one cruiser, two destroyers and two transports of U.K. Also captured France, Normandy and Yugoslavia. Walked into Finland and Bulgaria on non-combat move. Had 71 IPCs for the second round. I do not know how much more aggressive I can be. I did not lose any planes on G1 but only had 1 sub left.

Allies surrendered after the 9th round as the Axis were out producing them in IPCs. Japan was the big dog with 70 IPCs. Germany and Italy combined had about 85 IPCs. Germany is a real challenge to play as they are really boxed in. Taking Africa seemed to be the key but Japan clearing the pacific of the U.S. fleet and starting to put pressure on the Soviets was a big help.

@Uncrustable:

Seeing as its 2 different rulesets and 2 different setups, isnt 2 different FAQs needed?

Combining them doesnt seem to serve any purpose, if im playing the origional G40 and i have a question, then i post here. If im playing 2nd edition i ask my questions in the 2nd edition FAQ.

Or I could just have different sections with questions from original, alpha, alpha 2, alpha 3 and second edition. In theory. Although, to be honest, I’d just have 2nd edition and leave a pointer to a thread with answers for the other versions.
