Thanks for letting me know it still works with out of box rules.
Guess French West Africa does make sense to be Free.
HBG's Global War 1939 FAQ
-
Have a new player in group. His question is about the strict neutral rules. He says on page 29 it says * Example if Germany captures Denmark, then Iceland and Greenland become Pro-Allies and plus they have the same roundels.
He’s saying if the Capital Ankara is captured by the axis , then the other 2 territories become Pro-Allied. He’s stressing the example is the rule for all.
Now been many of issues with rule clarifications over the years. We have played 30 games now and have a buddy that has a play group and from what I’ve seen over the years on site ( may have missed some ) where Denmark is a special rule and the word Example should be removed.
All other strict neutrals follow the strict neutral rules in book. Capital captured other territories become pro either side until any country activates them and all ships rolled for, or if don’t capture capital, everything becomes other side or if a non capital territory is attacked then the other territories become other side.
Anybody still playing 1st Edition. You out there WILD BILL ?
-
OK. Got the rules confirmed and worked out.
-
What is the font used by HBG for the Global War Map territory names? I was doing some color editing to the map for my own purposes and wanted to eliminate the artifacting around the lettering by just redoing the province name.

Hi guys,
just a short question about the US National objective. The US starts with 80 IPC into war. do i have to add these 20 ipc from the NO into ?
US starts with 100 IPC into war ? -
The rule book says Germany cannot use a Japanese base, so I would assume the US couldn’t use a UK base. Is the US allowed to build an air or naval base in the UK?
-
Which 39 rules you going by ? 1st edition or 2nd edition using the 36 39 map ?
1st edition you can use a friendly air or naval base.
You cannot build a base unless u own that land territory at the start of your turn.
-
We’re using the latest set of rules that are currently available on HBG’s site. So if the US cannot use a UK airbase and cannot build one, how is it supposed to use paratroopers? I’m thinking we’ll use the first ed rule there and be allowed to use allies’ bases. Anyone else wonder about that in the newest rules?
-
The 2nd edition rules are for the new 36 39 map.
So yes you were using the wrong rules for just the 39 1st edition map. Use 1st edition 7.2 rules.
-
When we looked again at the rules we have, we noticed that paratroopers do not have to start in an air base. That was a forehead-slapping moment. :roll:

“A nation that loses its capital loses all of its saved IPPs (even if it does not technically surrender). Some nations can set up a second capital.”
Does the capturing player get to keep the IPPs?
-
Page 11 in rules: Enemy gets Capitals icp’s.
Except for Russia and UK London.Page 16 in rules: Russia - Money goes to bank when Moscow is captured by enemy.
Page 19 in rules: UK - Money goes to bank when London is captured by enemy.

“A nation that loses its capital loses all of its saved IPPs (even if it does not technically surrender). Some nations can set up a second capital.”
Does the capturing player get to keep the IPPs?
No, the capturing player does not get to keep the IPP. See:
http://www.globalwargame.com/www/question/money-from-deveated-nation/(I’m guessing DMcLaren is asking about the 2nd edition of the 36/39 game, as his words are the exact words from the manual 9.20)
-
I reread his post. I see he mentioned using 1st edition rule for bases in 2nd edition 36 39 game.
Just a reminder this thread is for the 1st edition rules.
-
We’re using 2nd edition, version 1.2.

Hi,
here is a question we are contemplating with HGB Axis&Allies 1939 Revised Map, 7.2 SetupWould neutral ships and more specifically neutral coastal ships defend themselfs (and in doing so prevent a landing) if an agressor attempted a landing into a landzone of that neutral country from the sea zone where that neutral countries (coastal) ships are located?
Or do you guys consider them harbored until after the fact just up for grabs for the agressor or the opposite faction via the rolling for neutral ships.
E.g. If Germany attempted a landing in Oslo from SZ7 where norwegian ships are also located.
Thanks in advance
-
Yes the neutral ships get to defend.

Does the UDSSR also starts at 0 or is the starting income + production level income ?Russia starts at 0. They roll 2 D12’s per turn for income. Also what ever territories Russia captures goes towards there income to.
