Power Groupings - Global Game

For Axis it pretty easy:

1 player gets all three Germany, Italy, and Japan
3 players each get one of them

With 2 players you must decide and I think the decision is pretty easy:

One player would get Japan and the other player would get Germany and Italy

So the debate is how to divide up the Allied players when you have 2 through 6 Allied players.

You need to sort if evenly spilt the roles. You can’t have one Person US/RUS and another CHI/FRA.

UK will play a massive role in this game. It will have Africa and the med which I think will be a great battle, India, and Brittan which means the airwar for it along with D-Day sometime+plus the atlantic.
Been that it was in a pact with France and will have units there (BEF) they should be alligned.

Russia will be fun to play now. It will be hard to defend the whold front, but aircraft and where to put them will be important (scambling aginst SBR) and their might also be a tiny naval war for Archangel sea zone. And another fun thing for Russia will be defending aginst the orginal Russian attak. Been that China have a similar thing (land war) they should go togeter.

The leaves the US to go with the ANZACs, who where under use command, and battle together (coral sea).

Uk will be big, but remember they are spread sooo thin

Exactly; meaning they will be making the toughest decisions throughout the entire game. Every UK IPC will have to be carefully considered… :wink:

And also the breaking point of the Axis. If Italy carnt get North Africa of the Middle East, or if Japan cannot get India, or if Germany cannot make an impact on allied shiping (espically UK conveys) in the Atlantic, they carnt win.

Believe me, if the Axis can get on top of the UK, they are well on the way of winning.

Okay back on topic……

How would you break up the Allies for 2 players.

My thoughts were UK, ANZAC, France  for one player and  USA, China, Russia for the second player.

the global game is going to be awfull for our group, we only got 3 players
that will mean recuiting! :D

but then axis will be played by one, while axis by 2?
or all allies at one player?

With three players, you almost have to have one Axis player and 2 Allied players so that each player has 3 powers.

yes, but then again: germany, japan and italy are bigger than china, ANZAC, france,…
so perhaps 2 axis?
but i’m not sure
i just hope the set-up from both maps gets adjusted, so there are a bit less troops in general

Yes, but then again UK, Russia, and USA are even bigger w/o Anzac, China and France.

i suggest pacific allies and europe allies :D
so france, UK, USSR and other player gets China, US, ANZAC
all axis at same person

indeed
and in problems, UK can give it’s pacific part, which is split up i heard, to other ally

I think UK and ANZAC should stay together.

dunno
they can easily split up
they have same units and inf at malaya, but that’s about all connection between them
while with the US, they have more connection

Now that I think about it, I think you’re right. I will update my list.

Saying you are very… persistent when it comes to your opinions. :wink:

Maybe so, but this is the second time I have changed my mind on this subject.
