The Great War 1914-1918: Clash of Empires

I am at it again! Here I present to you A&A 1800 Napoleonic Wars! This game will provide several scenarios within the wider scope of the Napoleonic Wars, beginning in the year 1800. This game will include full diplomatic, combat, and economic systems; as well as the destructive variable of Napoleon himself.

Combat system:

Infantry- Atk 1/ Def 2/ Move 1/ Cost 3 ipc
Atk of 2 when paired 1 to 1 with cannon

Calvary- Atk 2/ Def 2/ Move 2/ Cost 4 ipc

Cannon- Atk 3/ Def 3/ Move 1/ Cost 5 ipc
May move 2 spaces if paired 1 to 1 with calvary

Frigate- Atk 3/ Def 3/ Move 2/ Cost 8 ipc
May carry up to 2 land units, 1 must be infantry

Economic system:

All nations collect the stated amount of ipc with each of their respective territories at the end of each of their turns.

Diplomatic System:

Every nation may earn and spend PPT (Political Power Tokens). +1 PPT for defeating an enemy army/fleet (either destroying it or forcing it to retreat from a territory/sea zone ). +1 PPT when having captured an enemy territory. +1 PPT when forming an alliance with another nation.

-1 PPT when breaking an alliance with another nation. -1 PPT when having lost a land or sea battle. -1 PPT when having lost your nations capital.

PPTs may be spent to ally a neutral nation to your cause; 1 PPT per allying neutral nation. 1 PPT can be used to delay a nations declaration of war upon you (may only be used ounce per round, per nation). 1 PPT may be spent to declare war on another nation.

Here is the map…

@jonahawesome said in Cold War / Using AA 1940 Global war board:

I’m setting it in the mid-1950s / Late
Experimenting with it and making I can get some ideas from y’all

I’d prefer no air combat rule.

@Tall:

“Coach”,

––As far as the Island Warfare set in your Global Warfare-1939 series sets goes,….Do you have plans for making,…or could you PLEASE include an APD Attack Transport? These were the WW1 era 4-piper Destroyers that were rebuilt into Attack Transports for the Marine Raiders and other units. The Japanese also had simular Attack Transports and both were seen starting in the Guadalcanal campaign.
––My Marine Raiders are anxiously awaiting their rides into battle.

––I’m including a drawing & some pics, below.

I got a say, though I have never played anything other than AArevised, and earlier addtions, (including expansions), people always did buy all tanks. But when tanks defended on a 2, and cost 3, buying all infantry swamped the tanks. I never bought all men with the guys I used to play regualary with, but just enough not to give it away. I was amazed they never realized the advantage of buying all men versus tanks. I always bought just enough men to not make it obvious. I have been playing for over 25 years. When they made tanks defend at a 3 on revised it became a close battle, but with the addition of artillery, again unless  you had to travel far and fast, infantry and artillery is far superior in strength. It always has been, so I curious what game was it advantageous to do all tanks.

In World at WAr (Expansion), since you can improve factories to produce 2 tanks per turn at a $1 reduce price, those became the only tanks I would ever buy.

Looking at some of the maps like AA40, being so big in terms of spaces it might make sense. But tanks costing now $6, the need for speed really must overcome the advantage of fire power. If I have $42, I would much rather have 6 men and 6 artillery versus 7 tanks. Its a no brainer.

Im sorry i am not in the habit of making my games so anybody can just send files of it around the world and print their own copies of it. IT took me way too many hundreds of hours to create… Yes i did say hundreds… about 700-750 to be sure. The map alone took me 6-7 months to make.

I had IB before it was officialy released in stores. I don’t want to upset you anyway, but it is a load of bugs, and virtualy un-playable online.
This was one of the typical scams by hasbro before they went belly-up.
