@sneezking To anyone interested, I photoshopped the 3G40 map that Grasshopper had made and reversed the Sea Zone edits to match the base game - Axis and Allies Global as it was printed out of the box.

Please feel free to use the image in any way you see fit!

OPTIONAL RULE - NOT FOR TOURNAMENT PLAY
-9Qc5hgnTsIXzncwirpSMr8hfKJ1UhmZeMVM49ckSmFo9QXo-gaozzMp8S4r5Kuj.jpg
FORTUNES OF WAR
REPLACES THE OOB RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM:
Once one side achieves a victory objective, the same side will receive a fortunes of war bonus. Fortunes of war bonuses are awarded to all powers aligned with that side, except when stated otherwise (particularly 5 & 6 on the Axis chart). Any fortunes of war bonus gained will not come into effect until the end of the game round in which it was achieved.

At the end of any given turn sequence which a victory objective was gained, the side that claimed the victory token will roll 2 dice, and using the results rolled may choose one breakthrough from their chart. Breakthrough dice rolls may never be re-rolled, therefore, if doubles are rolled, or if both dice rolled result in a breakthrough or breakthroughs already owned, then there is no breakthrough awarded for that token gained.

FORTUNES OF WAR BONUSES:
AXIS BREAKTHROUGH CHART
1. BLITZ MOVEMENT
All axis mechanized infantry may now tow one artillery unit each, up to 2 spaces during any movement phase

2. BLITZ TACTICS
All axis tanks now attack @4 or less each when combined with a tactical bomber

3. MODIFIED TORPEDOS
All axis submarines now attack @3 or less, and may now roll 3 dice each when disrupting convoys

4. IMPROVED WARSHIPS
All axis battleships and cruisers now get 2 dice each during all combat rounds including bombardment (the limit of 1 bombardment roll per landing unit still applies).

5. BANZAI ATTACK
All Japanese infantry now attack @2 or less (combined arms for infantry with artillery is now negated)

6. JET FIGHTERS
All German fighters now attack @4 or less, and may now intercept and escort @2 or less
ALLIES BREAKTHROUGH CHART
1. IMPROVED RADAR
All allied airbases may now scramble up to 4 air units each

2. MODIFIED TRANSPORTS
All allied transports may now carry up to 3 land units each, if all 3 units are infantry

3. HEAVY BOMBERS
The +2 modifier for all allied strategic bombers damaging facilities has now been increased to +4 each

4. WAR BONDS
During their respective collect income phases, each allied power may roll 1 die and collect that amount in IPCs

5. SUPER CARRIERS
All allied aircraft carriers now defend @3 or less, and may also carry up to 3 eligible air units

6. LONG RANGE FIGHTERS
The maximum range of all allied fighters has been increased by 1 movement point

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
tankograd_4.jpg
FAQ:
Q: If Calcutta falls, does Sydney become the new capital of the United Kingdom Pacific?

A: No, if Calcutta falls the UK Pacific is without a capital, and without an income until Calcutta is liberated. This situation is similar to the rules for UK Europe regarding London and Ottawa.

Q: If UK Pacific land units from the Pacific side of the board move into and capture Iraq, does the UK Pacific collect for those 2 IPCs?

A: Yes, the UK Pacific economy will collect for all territories captured and controlled by grey units regardless of position on the board.

Q: For the Allied Diplomacy objective, what if the strict neutrals are turned and more pro-Allied neutrals are added to the board?

A: The pro-Allied territories required for the Diplomacy objective only include the 8 original pro-Allied territories from the start of the game.

Q: Regarding turn blocks, what happens if German aircraft are attacking an Allied fleet in the Med containing UK Pacific ships.

A: In all situations where two nations within the same turn block could possibly engage each other, all players must stop and wait for the first nation within that turn block to fully complete their entire turn before continuing.

Q: Why are the player assignments mandatory?, does this mean I can’t play both Russia and America while my teammate plays UKE, UKP and France?

A: The order of play and the mandatory player assignments work together with the turn blocks to provide faster game rounds. Therefore, 1 player playing Russia and America while another plays UKE, UKP, and France is not allowed during the tournament.

Q: Which Islands are involved in both the Allied and Axis Pacific tokens?

A: For the Allied Pacific token they must control Okinawa, Iwo Jima, Formosa, Marianas, Hainan, Palau, Caroline, and Marshall. For the Axis Pacific token they must control Aleutian, Midway, Guam, Wake, Hawaiian, Philippines, Johnston, and Line.

Q: If I purchase an aircraft carrier in sea zone 106 the same turn I get a free fighter in Quebec, can I immediately place that free fighter on the new carrier?

A: No, although in all other cases it is allowed, the free fighter in the American Lend Lease rule is special and must be placed in Quebec. This reflects the nature in which those aircraft came to be in Canada’s possession during the war.

@General-Day I suspect YG is not active in this forum.His you tube videos can still be viewed.Try searching "3G40 tournament"As for the stage cards,I think they are to prevent disputes in competitive play.I made my own cards from watching you tube.
