TRIPLEA FOR AAP40/AAE40/AAG40

It would be great if some people would play the Europe game with the Alpha setup and report their results at Larry’s site.  Just replace the two ANZAC infantry in Egypt with one UK infantry and ignore any references to Pacific territories in US NOs, and you should be good to go.

@z0m4d:

These are pretty sweet!  Any motivation to do one adjusted for the different national objectives in the 2nd edition?

I concur!  These are the best I’ve found and the NO board is fantastic!  I’d love to see these updated for the 2nd Ed.!  Exclamation point!

@Imperious:

On UK 1 they build the 9 inf, not naval.

The ships from Gibraltar move to block, but these are lost if Germany tries anyway.

The advantage is your getting some German air exchanged.

The latter problem is if they don’t attack, you still have a buy a fleet and make it save because Germany will still have subs and UK needs to kill them to get its NO’s

If the fleet attacks Italy, they take out the Italian navy in addition to german air

Lets post further discussion in house rules. We already have a thread. I am re-posting that.

@Axisgirl:

And if you let Italy eat up Africa…Then Germany looks pretty bleak

Africa will be hard, but if you can get through Egypt and Med you will be able to slowly move on the British, but they have an IC in South Africa. Russia will be bigger so Germany could get a lot more countless territories and France will be a few, so they can build up, but if the US ever gets there they are rich

India will not have two “bumps”! So stop claiming that it will.

Proof? –-Take out your AAP40 map (if you do not have an AAP40 then go buy one) and closely look at India.

Now follow the India coastline to the back of the game board.

See how the coastline is still going southeast.

Depending on where the black backer paper is, you can see 5-6mm (1/4") of the AAE40 map.

On my game board I can see some of the boarder separating E. India from W. India.

Just like on the other edge of the same board is 5-6mm (1/4") of the other half of AAP40 map.

I can see—
  —part of the"M" of Marianas (SeaZone 22),
  — half of the “G” of New Guinea
  — half of the “Q” of Queensland
  — half of the “N” of New South Wales

The bottom of India on the AAP40 map is NOT the southern tip of India.

The coastline continues southeast a few millimeters on the AAE40 map before heading northeast.

In my rules NCM is simultaneous with Combat Movement; there is no reinforcing areas you just captured in any circumstances.

Therefore, you can only rail units into territories you’ve held since your last turn, representing the problems of converting track gauges and so forth.  You still have to build your attack in stages, giving the enemy the chance to counter-rail his own forces to that front, or to disrupt such movement by attacking vulnerable links in the chain of territories on your network.

If the Axis allows the Allies to move a large force from Cape Town to Moscow in one move they really deserve to get screwed.
