Final Global setup!

[Guest]

Here are the ammendments to Alpha +3:

Move the French cruiser in 112 to 110.
Move the UK cruiser in 112 to 111.
Move the German cruiser and transport in 113 to 114.
Add 1 UK mechanized infantry and 1 French infantry to United Kingdom.
Add 1 UK infantry and 1 AA gun to Scotland.
Change 1 French tank and 1 French artillery in France to equivalent UK units.

Change the Soviet “Spread of Communism” NO to “3 IPCs for each original German, Italian, or pro-Axis neutral territory that the Soviet Union controls.”

Krieghund also wrote:

“I have reviewed the above changes with Larry, and they are now official as written. We’ve also added 1 AA gun to India, bringing the total there to 3.”

So there we have it!

YAAAAY!

OK, now it works. But I’m not very happy with this setup, 11 inf and a mayor IC for Berlin seems too much to me … probably gives advantage to Axis. And Germany has a minor IC at Ukranie as well  :-P

As this was a public playtest effort, there are two kinds of people: those who participated and those who shouldn’t complain about the results.

Thanks to all of those who participated!

Can’t open it either…but the changes listed are all the changes, right?

A rare show of emotion, I LOVE IT.

So there will not be any more Alpha’s or setup changes in the future?  This is the final version which will be released in the second print?

@Young:

Incredible,
+2=pro allies
+3=pro allies
+3.5=pro axis
+3.9=pro allies

No experienced player will ever lose England again, and Germany’s only option seems to be a drive toward Moscow

Don’t you think it’s a bit early for that kind of statement ?

Since Russia can attack Germany as soon as UK falls, maybe we are going to see  more G4 Sealion with less than 13 transports…

Perhaps, but I’ve always had an extreme personality. If sealion is still on the table, it might be a round or two later, with more resources required, and more loses taken.

Lol.

But you are right.

There are 2 kinds of people:  those that will buy the next Axis & Allies game and those that won’t.

[Derek]

Their are actually three kinds of people in the world… @#$%s, !&()s and aholes…

You know where im going with this if you’ve ever been fortunate enough to watch “Team America: World Police”

:lol:

I try to use as many of my German units in the combat phase during G1. However, unless I attack Russia G1, I will be simply repositioning many of my valuable units in the non-combat phase giving myself a better setup for G2. I’m leaning toward a G1 Russian attack, but I would like to hear from those that play tested these changes and what their results were.

Is it the final setup… Or is it not…
Will there be a Alpha Final +1?  :wink: hehe

The answer to your question is always the same, it’s 99% final (the same answer two modifications ago). My suggestion is, when you see a second edition of global on your game store shelves, that’s when it will be 100% final.

[Veqryn]

i hope it is final enough that any future change can simply be done with a bid, just like all the other games……

[Guest]

Krieghund did say it is final.

[Young Grasshopper]

After looking at the board for a couple of hours, 1 Strategic Bomber, 1 Fighter, and 1 Destroyer sounds like a good first round buy for Germany.

[Derek]

I would argue 2 strats and a sub. Really bomb the hell outta london starting rd 2. and hope for bad aa dice.

[techroll42]

Wait do they get more land troops?
