In TripleA, this is very similar to the purchase UI that already exists (shows number you chose and adds up the costs). Though we eventually want to expand on this to potentially allow users to be able to plan where they want to place them and display reminders on the territories. It would also save this info so you could then essentially choose to just confirm previous decisions when the actual place step occurs (not have to try and remember where you wanted them).
Global 1940 and 1943 Expansion for use with TripleA

While I appreciate the patriotism, The USA activating their National Guard every turn does seem a bit much :)
Put a fix out in a bit

Update to 6.0
Change Log: 6.0
7/4/21Fix USA activating National Guard more than once.
-
Made Russian Factories only able to move in Non Combat. Be in next update.
-
Hmm…just saw where U-Boats Defend at 3 first rd. Only have them at 2. That’s a big difference. Guess I better do an update.
-
@barnee well unfortunately somethings all jacked up. They’re not getting a defense bonus at all. wtf pretty sure it worked when i made it. W/e. we’ll figure it out. Kind of a bummer. Was just starting to have fun lol

Add “Army Group” image for Americans. -
Sadly a major rewrite is needed for the “Expanded Pacific”. This includes all relevant players and all TTys. Gonna take a while.
What’s happening is the negative bonus which simulates the extra PUs, is only firing when there’s battle. I need to change to just simple control of TTy.
Seems obvious now but … w/e We’ll get it done : )
Was just starting to have fun in rd 4. Buncha new guys showed up lol. So far trying to keep enough cheap fodder guys for the heavy hitters has been one of the bigger challenges.
At any rate, be back with a fix hopefully soon :)
Edit
Actually we need battle but only once, not every round. So we need a trigger with a battle condition that activates the rest of the rounds and then if/when it gets taken over, we’ll need another one … hmm yea this might take a while : ) -
@barnee
Hi barnee,I realize that the increased IPC values in The Pacific can cause some technical difficulties concerning TripleA.
Most importantly, the increased IPC values have no effect when Convoy Disruption occurs. The loss of IPC is according to the original IPC value.
-
@the-captain Hi Captain yea the convoys work right. They only hit at original value. An objective is added for the extra PUs when it gets taken over and a negative one for the original owner. I think I’ve almost got it thought through for the fix.
Was really just wanting to play as I’m starting to figure out how to do it best for triplea : ) Takes a while to get used to, but ftf on the board you have to remember it all : ) I think it’ll be very playable on triplea for those that are interested :)

That sounds great:relaxed:
When playing FTF, as game experience improves, you’ll need to use the rulebook less frequently.
The Timetable is sufficient to keep track of when units and rules come into play.
Our experience shows, that already after 2-3 games, most units & rules are easily remembered - even for new players who are not yet familiar with the use of expansion rules.
Surely, the Global 1940 Basic Expansion will inspire players.
We have great succes when training new players, using the Global 1940 Basic Expansion.
Most players are ready to go all in (step-by-step) with Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion after 3-4 games.The feed back we recieve is that the rules are easy to learn and remember.
And then again: once you’ve played with the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion there is no going back.

@the-captain heh heh Awesome ! Love it ! New Players you guys are all over it. : )
Yea I’m all in optional included. Partisans just showed up for the first time : ) No place fore em but hey they were there :)
What I’ve been doing is have two windows open to the rules while playing. First is table of contents , second, I scroll for the answer. I think it works pretty good.
I’ll post a triple experience/suggestions at some point for online players, and sure people can improve on it : ) but … w/e I’m totally digging it. I didn’t think triplea could come close enough to even make it worth it when I first read your awesome rules. I’m SO stoked it can !

Like GEN Manstein said: ATTACK !!! :muscle: :relaxed:
-
@the-captain Ha Ha Ha Right Arm !
Yea I’ve been trying to establish Rommel in N Africa but those two RRs from S Africa are pretty bad ass. I guess India could use em but … I just been sending em to Egypt.
Probably a folly with Rommel but just checking out the game. Been building a wolfpack in S France, had to do an AB too with Ftrs. Italy an AB in Tobruk. Probably shoulda just sent it all at Russia but it’s tying down some UK Forces.
Those Paras are real problematic. I lost Finland because I spaced lol. UK can threaten France all of w europe. RRs toitally Rock ! Love thhese Hous RULES !!! :)
OK I’ll stop : ) have a good day
P outEdit
An those Elites kick ass too. Need a Arty but yea I was like I got no place for more lets attack :) with em. Cost the same so why not -

Flip German “Army Group Flag” direction. Add Notification for USA National Guard activation. Fix Pacific Islands Original Owners not having a negative PU every turn they don’t control them. -
Hello barnee/captain,
Are you guys open to adding other rule ideas or mechanics from others?
-
Hi wax
I won’t speak for Captain but there is a "Global 40 House Rules " mod here
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/26089/g40-redesign-currently-taking-suggestions/1708
That has a lot of House Rules from many members. Could definitely add more there : )
-
Great, well I have had many ideas over the years and just last week I finally went about trying to mod a map. I got in a few mechanics/rule setups already but was having trouble with land transport, and then stumbled upon your map while in search of help.
Your map has so much work and additions put into and some things already touch upon my ideas so it would be cool if my suggestions might make it in.
One thing I did notice though is that you do not have any Vichy rules or other objectives from Balanced Mod. It seems you guys wanted to build off of 2nd Edition and not the Balanced Mod3 rules?
Do you plan to make another map with the Bal mod rules?
Anyways, I will head over to that other thread to throw in my ideas.
Cheers

@waxfingers yea no worries see ya there : )
