https://axisandallies.fandom.com/wiki/World_War_II_v3_1942_No_National_Objectives
Good- A bit simpler this way
- AI plays a bit better
- China is more viable
Bad
- Nothing really

@rogercooper Isn't strategic bombing on Germany by the US becomes too powerful without National objectives? I've also always found the Allies way stronger without the National objectives.

Try out strategic bombing as a strategy. and see how well it works. I think that Allies are bit better off because China does better. National objectives helps everyone except China, so if the Japanese don't focus on China initially, China can become reasonably strong, protecting Russia's Eastern flank.

I have not tried this. I don't like games with inset maps and there are many features that are not AI-compatible.

Some mods just suffer from feature bloat. Too many unit types and too many special features. A&A is basically a simple game and best TripleA mods are not complex.
My suggestion for the American Civil War on computer is Victory and Glory: The American Civil War. I have not seen a good TripleA mod for it.
-
@rogercooper Find it harder to learn than GW 1936. That one at least has axis and allies as a skeleton. This one is too different (resource management) for me to easily learn. I think this map kind of told me not to go too far with my map
-
@board-3659 yea I tried it a few times when I first found triplea. It was a bit much for me. I've seen people say it's probably the most unique triplea map.
Some cool stuff for sure but my brain just had trouble with it.
Used to be somebody who played it frequently. Can't remember who
-
@beelee I do think it's interesting though I think my favorite's are Steampunk Advance and Lord of the Rings: Middle Earth
-
@board-3659 If you want something different, check The Grand War. A unique alternate history with interesting units on map with only 190 territories.

@rogercooper OK thanks, I'll check it out
