I just set up the Global 1943 Expansion Revised setup. It looks very good, I can’t wait to play!
I did notice a couple of errors though, regarding the German and Japanese setup.
German Setup
Romania seems to be missing here. I thought there were supposed to not be any units there, but I see from the pictures that Romania does have units in it.
Japanese Setup
Guam is also listed in the Japanese setup. I see from the picture that Guam is Japanese-controlled, with two artillery, two fighters, two tacticals, and an airbase?
Palau is listed as a captured territory (you have to place a National Marker in them), but it already starts out Japanese from game start. So that is unnecessary.
I counted the Japanese and UK total income, and I come out at 73 for Japan, and 46 for UK, while in the rules it’s stated that Japan has 74 and UK has 47. Am I missing something?
Romania has no units in it - and the picture also shows that Romania is German Controlled - but Unoccupied.
Concerning Guam:
True - there is a flaw in the Setup Chart - Guam is missing. I’ll correct that asap.
The picture shows the correct Setup.
Concerning IPC Level for Japan and United Kingdom:
Remember that Celebes is worth 4 IPC.
I’ll check and double check those IPC Levels again.
Thanks again- you have sharp eyes:+1:
@the-captain after reading Victory’s post it reminded me that Guadalcanal and New Britain don’t turn Japanese until after German Purchase
It has to do with turning it from ANZAC to UK then to JPN. It can’t be done simultaneously is the reason for the delay. The above shows it after German 1 Purchase
Edit
Victory is correct. I have 2 INF and 1 Panzer in Romania. I’ll fix for next update.
Fixed :)
The RULEBOOK Global 1943 Expansion has been updated with the Setup concerning Japan (Guam).
Guam is Japanese occupied (see Setup Chart for Japan)- this has now been corrected.
Good!
You are doing great! 👍🏼
For use with the Global 1940 & Global 1943 Expansions are now Army Group Boards & Markers available.
You’ll find them in the Revised Rulebook, Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion.
The Printed Paper Full Color Rulebook is now available for Axis & Allies Global 1943 Expansion.
Sweet! I want one!
The Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion full color printed rulebook now includes the Global 1943 Expansion as well.
This reduces production costs - and it also has the advantage that players now have both Global 1940 & Global 1943 Expansions in one rulebook.
Please contact Cornelis Post at this forum, if you have any questions concerning costs, ordering and shipping of the rulebook.

@the-captain I’m curious as to why the soviets didn’t destroy the Novgorod Naval Base ?
@barnee said in Global 1943 Expansion, Revised:
@the-captain I’m curious as to why the soviets didn’t destroy the Novgorod Naval Base ?
Stalin felt a coup coming so he took out the leaders !
@general-6-stars :joy:
Concerning the Naval Base in Novgorod - this Naval Base was operative during the German siege.
So the Setup for Global 1943 needed to keep it intact in order to keep the Historical aspect.
