What game is this? I have always wanted a Cold War version of Axis and Allies.
I went to your main page... Global War 1985? Where is the cheapest place to get it?
Only available from Historical Board Gaming dot com.
also nice turn Captain
"Admiral Sea Bass-ist" LOL
Love the Balloon as the satellite!
Thanks. When this one ends, would you want to try a Scenario Zero UA-cam war? Let me know, eager to see you play this great game.
@ absolutely!
I love the barn wire camp for the dice!
nice turn Captain G
Fear not, supreme leader, we at the Peoples Ministry of Education assure you that after some time conducting televised public services, our scientists will most certainly have the... motivation... to work harder in their academic efforts.
Dateline!
not sure I have ever seen tech dice this bad across the board!
One we would prefer to not see again.
Balance!
What’s up with the P-3? Why did it not come down and hit the subs?
P-3 ASW range is not long enough to make it there and land.
Played this a lot as a kid with father
Expand that Chinese Empire
By your command!
China has a lot of cars
LoL! They are technically bicycles, but we call them cars to keep the masses happy.
Hahaha
Excellent!
Where did you get the modern Task Force markers?
I made them. Grabbed pictures off the internet, sized them to fit on back of my HBG WW2 TF markers, printed on Staples adhesive paper. Need to print more, it was fun finding the images I wanted to use… including a shot or two from Red Dawn, Rambo FBII, etc. 😁
A very great game! One day I do hope to have the disposable income to purchase it. I started getting distracted around the 13 minute mark though because the music in the back ground sounded so familiar that I started trying to hear it to see if I could figure out where it was from, lol
Great game, Comrade! Keep up the Dateline. My favorite part of a Captain G video!
Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed the game.
Great recap! Love the Dateline as always! Glorious conclusion and Kind words to all the players 🫡
Fantastic job with this game. Making me want to buy it
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
are the pieces to be purchased separately? If so, how much did you pay for everything?
There were discounted faction kits available for purchase with the game pre-orders. There may still be faction sets on the website. The pieces are offered in individual sets, similar to the Global War 1914 or 1936 games. Certainly substitue pieces (ie Axis & Allies infantry, subs, etc) can be used to start. I’d recommend looking at the piece counts for the factions to get an idea. The investment is more hobby than board game range.
Decimate!
Love the Dateline!
Man... that naval aviation strike was highway robbery. The dice giveth and the dice taketh away... unfortunately for your Soviets (and fortunately for the free world) the dice give you little but grief. LOL
The dice are fickle things. Throw enough of them and they’ll turn on you.
Yes! The dice gulag has finally had the desired effect, lol. Great turn!
Da, dice gulag is effective on both 6 and 12 sided dice. Is good.
@ that is very good. Extra vodka rations!
Very interesting wargame so far. I keep wondering about the Soviet Supercarrier... what a world would THAT have been? LOL Pure sci-fi in Western hindsight (and Eastern reality), but scary nonetheless. Thanks as always for the uploads.
Those two poor Finnish regiments... the Big Red Bear is hard to stop.
The Finns didnt struggle as much as the Swedes. Glad there will be no counterattack here.
Holy Moly, the Swedes put up a fight!
They did. It was not a fight that I wanted after being at war with the US and NATO, so tried something new by attacking early.
Excellent videos, gentlemen. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us here on UA-cam. Two questions: With Dropbox links no longer working, where can on get a current version of the rulebook PDF? Also, I see AWACS on your board but not on other people's tables. Do they represent something other than an AWACS? Thanks again. Cheers!
Thanks for watching and commenting. All the rules, reference sheets, etc are available at HBG’s website under Global War 1985. I use Airborne Early Warning aircraft to identify US and Soviet Home Country major airbases. I also use the navy’s E2C Hawkeye AEW aircraft to track locations of naval Task Forces containing super carriers. It is what Sky Marshall would call ‘Table Bling’. The major airbases do produce cruise missiles in wartime- so the AEW aircraft do make it easier to count quickly. But they are for fun only as their capabilities have been built into the bases/supercarriers.
@CaptainG9318 , excellent. Much obliged. As a big fan of military aviation wargaming I became quite excited to see flying radar on the table. I suspected that they were "table bling", but one can hope. 😂 Again, excellent videos and good luck with the game.
Fantastic work
Thanks.
Fine work, Captain.
Thank you sir.
Glorious turn Comrade! Tech success for all!
Okay, I've got Flakk88 and Captain G and Admiral Sea Bass. Who am I missing in my sub list so I can catch all this series replay?
Ozark Outpost is NATO. I have a playlist with everyone’s videos in order, you can follow his link to his channel.
@@CaptainG9318, yes you do, you beautiful man you. ❤😂
LMAO! You actually made a dice gulag!
Ahhh a few new dice to the gulag, lol Thought it was cool Ozark pulled off the same maneuver as in Red Storm Rising
Yes, it negatively impacted my fleet. But it was an excellent move.
@@CaptainG9318 I always wondered if that would be a move anyone would try for during a UA-cam War.
The Flak88 maneuver! Well done comrade! Iceland stands no chance
Most glorious comrade G-ovsky!
"It can only get better. It can't get worse." Me thinks you have just jinxed yourself.
I think you are right!
The dice gulag😅😅😅😅😅😅😂😂😂
Are you playing with battleshis? I love battleships.....
Not this time. Just base game and optional units: ASW Helos, SPAAGs and Rocket Artillery. I also love the Battleships & BattleCruisers, and the Naval Aviation expansions.
He knew that I knew that he knew that I knew that he knew that I knew what I was going to do.
Exactly… I think.
I feel your scientists are not afraid of Siberia. Might be time to show them why people fear going there
Need to impose a dice gulag for all unsuccessful tech dice moving forward!
@@CaptainG9318 I think that would be wise, hahaha. Overall, though I think you’ve been playing a good game despite the tech setbacks
@redbulltanker194 thanks. My first time playing Soviet Global, eager to try some new things.
@@CaptainG9318 look forward to seeing how it all plays out
"I'm not bitter about it." Sounds like the Propaganda Ministry at work, there.
Great turn! The Dateline update was on par!
Glad you are enjoying them, appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching.
The spread of glorious communism will wait another turn, Comrade!
What is the range of missile silos
I dont recall off hand. Check the Nuclear Release section of the rules. ICBMs cab pretty much reach any tartget in that Scenario.
"The 2 muppets" lol
Congratulations winners
Smooth as glass. You are a worthy opponent, Comrade General Secretary.
Thank you kind sir. Now remove your anti-tech hex you’ve cast upon me and face me like warriors with sword and honor. Have at you!
@@CaptainG9318 sorry our no returns policy is firm.
@@ozarkoutpost , ROFLMAO 👏👏👏
Another great narration!
Glad you liked it, thanks for watching & commenting.
