Alpha for AAE40?

Meant One map only for a shorter game.was talking Europe, but have a few problems with Pacific concerning set up, especially
Vis a Vis missing Russian Inf. In pacific only Japan should not be allowed to empty Manchuria and Korea as Russia borders them. Played a friend who sailed his Us fleet to Australia on T2 , before my T3 DOW. Was legitimate, but I feel it should not be. I now accept T2 DOW is seen as all as best. Would like to see a clarification of stand alone NOs and starting set ups. Sorry if I sound unclear.

Besides, the Soviets aren’t even in the Pacific version, and West India is balanced by British Columbia, so it’s even there and the European UK doesn’t get more…

This makes no sense at all.

The alleged rationale for all these endless mindless Alpha changes were to help the Axis to win.

So the answer is to bulk up the starting IPC’s for the UK and the USSR?

Yeah right!

Soon all this Alpha nonsense will be revealed as a joke right?

The rules posted by Larry are for the Global game only.  What’s posted here is the “best guess” of what the rules for Europe will look like based on those changes.  It is unofficial at this point.

I could not access the unit lists…

I think my 9 Soviet TAc bombers and 9 Halftracks are a strange number (usually units come in even numbers or multiples of five IIRC

Man I cannot wait to try these gambits out! Too bad I’m gonna be knee deep in homework and studying by the time I get the game (school starts 8/19 for me).

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.

@Imperious:

1 French inf

???

Theres a French Infantry that starts in the UK, like ANZAC had a guy in Malta.
