@brass-hat The group I play with currently have a lot going on so we don’t always get the chance to play as much as we would like to. We have started playing global 36v3 and I am really excited about the v4 rules that are coming. We also play standard G40 and we play Sireblood’s blood bath rules which is a blast if you like the more standard G40. I guess if you could let me know your email we could get something going.

RE: Air Superiority Rules for GW 1936 v3
@trig It does, ALOT… Thank you. I thought that might be the case. So in the example I cite if both the Attacker and Defender get 2 hits with their fighter those ‘hits’ must be taken against air craft in turn 1 only. On round 2 and more any hits that result from planes can be taken by any unit. Your right… I was overthinking it…

RE: Tech problems
@insanehoshi Germany upgraded the factory in eastern Germany to a major and then built another factory (major) in East Prussia. So he had a total 6 rolls a turn! ( not all starting in 1936 of course ).
One of the things that attracted me to this game was the tech and how it’s played. What I had not expected/failed to understand was the ability to stop researching a tech line and then start a new one. If agree 100% with you that before I start making house rules we need to play more and we are planning to do the 1939 start this time and with the tech positions as indicated. We will see how it goes… Yes, I did want to throttle the german player because of the luck he was having…

RE: Looking for players in the Minneapolis/ twin cities area
Good for the two of you!! I have some work & vacation events that are about to kick off here in a few weeks so I am sort of getting ready for that. I have scheduled the weekend of September 24th ( Saturday or that Sunday ) to play the A&A Blood Bath rules. It’s A&A but better. You are welcome to join us that weekend and play if you want.
If that goes well we can schedule a G40 game for October. I have found that G40v3 can take at least 1 weekend for sure perhaps 2. My kids are all out of the house so I can leave the game up.
I am sure both of you will have good fun with Blood Bath…

RE: Anyone in the Twin Cities?
I am looking for a group to play Global War 36. I live in Woodbury. I am looking for a group to either join OR host a game.
I have been playing for a few years with another group but many of them don’t have time to play as often as I would like.

RE: The FAQ Thread
@plasticknight So long as an airbase is in a landzone that is adjacent to that sea zone I don’t see any reason why the Germans would be prevented from scrambling.
Your second example seems to be a little more tricky but you just have to break down the situation. Once all combat movement is completed the defending player then determines if they want to scramble and participate in whichever combat action: MAP defense or attack the surface ships. If the subs can survive the MAP attack then they would remain in that sea zone. Should the defending player attack the ‘cruisers’ that entered that sea zone then the defending planes would have no impact on the MAP attack/defense. Just my thinking…

RE: The FAQ Thread
@insanehoshi ALL lend lease per the rules says it has to go the home country via rail or port. So, for example, German could lend lease to Italy via a rail line and the US can lend lease to Russia via Vladivostok or Murmansk. This is all contingent that there is a working railroad line to the destination OR there are no enemy ships in the sea zone that could interdict the lend lease material. The US could not lend lease to a British colony in Africa for example since it’s not part of the home territory even if there was a working port available.

RE: The FAQ Thread
@noneshallpass I have to agree with this. Sometimes you just have to let years of A&A gaming kick in and even though the rules say you can’t… it clearly does not say you CAN. I sort of rationalize these attrition attacks to a prepared position that has ample artillery ammunition and supplies to sustain what would have been a tremendous expenditure of ammunition. Now, you are asking for those artillery units to move an entire land zone, with the ammunition and then conduct a barrage. I think it’s either or., if you have SP artillery you can move 2 and then enter into combat with the other ground/air units. OR you can you sit in the land zone you are in and conduct an attrition attack on the adjacent land zone. Just my thinking… I don’t think the game creators had a vision of SP artillery or mobile infantry towed artillery moving 2 land zones and THEN attacking a land zone ( 3 land zones now ) from their original position? Do you?
