Axis and Allies Global 1940 Solo Game 2

This video covers turn by turn my second game of Axis and Allies Global 1940. This was another Axis victory although the Allies made the game closer.

I notice the Tyrrhenian Sea contains 2 named islands, Sardinia & Sicily; I've been playing them as separate islands; kindly advise.

thank you so much for uploading this lol

[ajknaup]

Thanks for discussing the rules, that always helps.
I notice you seem to use many mechanised infantry units, what are the advantages?

[chriscarlton]

I think the biggest part for the allied victory is the element of surprise which is a little harder in a solo so understandable. But being able to land and take any territory surprising the axis it’s just important to take advantage of ur IPC advantage at the start with the combined allies until the us arrive just being a menace and wasting axis IPC

Realy good vidéo... Yes i wathing this video 2 years later 😅

at 29:04 the British have invaded Borneo, but Borneo is already British.

[jeffreyreedy]

Are you sure that the Eastern command after turn two is able to take Borneo. I thought it already had it.

The game was over turn 7 but I kept watching anyways. Great video. I’m not sure if you know this but AA guns can be used to satisfy a loss. Therefore the USA wouldn’t have wanted to attack Japan.

How did the German ships move into the same territory as the Russian ships without starting the war between them

How did those German subs get into the Med? Control of Gibraltor is needed to pass through the straits.

Quick correction: even if China was fully knocked out, any Allied liberation of Chinese territories still return ownership of that territory to China. This is because China doesn't have a capitol.

I’m curious, why did allied industrial complexes disappear when captured by the Axis? Germany should have a minor in Normandy and southern France after they capture them from France, and one in Leningrad, Stalingrad, and Ukraine after capturing them from the Soviet Union. I know that if a major complex is captured it is immediately downgraded to a minor (since you can’t own a major complex outside of your original territory) but I thought if you captured a minor factory you got to keep it?

[robertsnyder]

every factory MUST produce, every turn. UK in south Africa, two tanks EVERY TURN. it is better to not need it rather than need it and NOT have it.

I really feel like the game stands and falls with russia... So you should try and support russia more with the other allies! When russia had norway you could have brought the french and some brithish fighters there and put them into moskau the next turn. I know russia looses the bonus but 5 fighters is waaay more than you will ever get out of that. An other option is flying them in from kairo or india or even building a factory in persia.
Great game though! Thanks for the content!

Hi Panser J, One thing I have noticed is you really like to bunch things up and this I believe helps out the Axis to the detriment of the Allies. You really need to force the issue of spreading things out...especially against Japan (Both on the ocean and on Asia). Peel back 1 or 2 Russian tanks and let them blitz through some Japanese and Chinese lands instead of allowing Japan to just sit on that IPC money and it will force Japan to run around after the Allies and not be able to concentrate all of its forces against one area of the map.

USA needed to land up in Russia to help Russia with Japan....also split up and take some US ships down south to help ANZAC cause some Japanese trouble which in turn will help the Pacific Brits too....bunching up big globs of forces only really helps Japan to win...you must set many little fires and spread them out and by all means...DO NOT let them sit on all that IPC money for large portions of the game...No wonder the bad guys win so often...you are making it too easy for them.

For the Far East Command taking Chinsese territories China is different in that they don't have a capital so china gets immediately liberated

[Someoneoutthere]

Also the UK already owned Borneo maybe you meant to say reinforce

[adalwolf]

You can land planes in newly occupied territories is it has an airbase. It’s an optional rule in GW 1936.
