Played about 25 games. 23-2 record against my father in law. He never surrenders!

Has anyone ever made up a cheat sheet for rules covering the basics for newbies? My son is having a few of his friends over this weekend to play and I thought something like this would be helpful.

@aequitas-et-veritas said in New to G40...will not playing w/NOs break the game?:

we are omitting that shutting off US NOs means they are at minimum income all game. A different game for sure…but probably not an Allied advantage

I agree on that.
The US needs any IPC they can get!
I played a few games with minimum income for the Allies. You will unlikely win. The Allies depend on the NO’s, so does the Axis powers.
You may experiment with diffrent NO’s or change them, but shutting them off is not a good idea Imo.

We play with NOs off except USA +30 when at war. It works great for us. Give it a try.

So Angola is a territory of Portugal. Does Angola spawn 2 units? Or does Germany just take it?

@Flashman said in Where WOTC got the idea for this game…:

Surely Axis and Allies and Aliens would have been more interesting, with the humans gradually adapting alien tech and reluctantly co-operating against them but with a view to ultimate victory.

And I’ve got zombies already; I want little green aliens with ray guns.

Harry Turtledove is an author who writes alternative history books. I enjoyed this one. You may already know about him though.

Could you list the games?
The pic is too blurry

@Dauvio:

Nice job, and nice paint schemes. I really enjoy your presentation.

I myself don’t like the Italian, and Russian color schemes. So i change their colors. For Italy is bright green because their flag has green in it. For Russia is red because of the red army. I should use your color scheme for ANZAC.

Red Russians is a great idea.

The Italian brown has always bothered me too. My father in law, who is in his 70s, is constantly confusing the Russians for Italians and vice versa. They should have just switched the Italians and ANZAC colors and it would have been fine.
