The escalation toward war thru DEFCON is a great and important mechanic indeed. How aggressive does the Warsaw Pact want to be early in the game. Hostile actions can trigger reaction by China and the West to increase their defense readiness posture, including their Defense Condition. Their DEFCON level allows for expanded deployments of units and more aggressive response options.
There are a lot of new capabilities and attack options available to players in Global War 1985: from Surgical Strike air missions to Theater Nuclear Missile attacks; Air Cavalry Assaults to Counter Value ICBM attacks. I love ‘em all.
True indeed. It is a great looking map, a unique Cold War map. There is little better than F-14s sitting on a supercarrier in the Indian Ocean, or Warsaw Pact tanks massed along the border in Central Europe.
Thanks, hope whoever wins enjoys using them on their table. There is a lot of new options open to players in GW85- cruise missile, chemical weapons, state sponsored terrorism, insurgencies, battlefield nukes. Plenty in this game to enjoy.
Excited for another great installment in the Global War series and to watch some the strategies develop in all the TH-cam Wars that are sure to follow!
You and me both. The random events will make each game different and the many scenarios will give ample opportunity for the community to try new and exciting strategies.
@@CaptainG9318 That is a great point. I was fortunate enough to pick up the GW 1914 game a few months back and the random events are my favorite new addition to the game as well as my play groups’s favorite new mechanic. Always have to keep on your toes and plan for the unexpected!
Excited for exploring the escalation mechanic, seeing how the incentives for different nations/factions can change over the course of the game. Interested to see if staying non-nuclear is the best decision, as happened in some TH-cam wars.
I've followed Admiral Seabass serie on gw 85 and it's truly a new level of hbg's games. Exited to see more youtube wars and how the smaller conflicts impact the game. Congrats on 200!
100%. The different smaller conflicts can pop up anywhere with the random events, grow out of control, and escalate into all out war. Quite a lot of fun.
Thanks for watching and the support. The Battleships & Battle Cruisers expansion is a lot of fun. I am perhaps biased, but the naval expansions are my favorite.
Awesome! Dont forget China. One of my favorite parts of the game is how it works much like G40 in that players have many options in what scenario they want to play and where in the world they want to fight.
@@CaptainG9318 I am looking forward to the China and Global aspects. The Iran/Iraq war and other parts I’ve seen in the TH-cam wars interest me a lot. All of it combined. From all I’ve seen I think it’s going to be great!
I ran the results right before midnight as the contest ended with the 14th. But, if any consolation, when I checked for any final entries, there were still open spots on each team in the #10 slot. So you would have been NATO 10, and NATO’s roll was a 5. Appreciate you watching, hope you enjoy Global War 1985!
There have already been a few public ones by the playtest group. Scenario 1: Operations First Blood & Killing Fields. Scenario 2: Operations Drago & Patriot Games. Scenario 3: Operation Mars (solo game).

Excited to see how Defcon rules impact gameplay - they look incredible!

The 80's vibes I'm most looking forward to!
Me too. There is a ton of 80s flavor in this game. Great excuse to breakout the cassette collection while playing the game.
Its got to be the overall aesthetic of the game this game is not only a fun strategy game but also a true work of art when it's all set up.
True indeed. It is a great looking map, a unique Cold War map. There is little better than F-14s sitting on a supercarrier in the Indian Ocean, or Warsaw Pact tanks massed along the border in Central Europe.
Looking forward to the new dynamic game play. Your pieces are really sweet too!!
Thanks, hope whoever wins enjoys using them on their table.

Cant wait to play this with my roommates. Going to be listening to the warno soundtrack in the background.
This is a ton of fun to play in person, lots of team work between Allies or opportunities to strike common enemies. Enjoy!
Excited to watch some TH-cam wars on this game
Me too! Cant wait to watch the strategies the community comes up with play out. Will be fun.
Definitely more TH-cam wars!
Yes! Cant wait to see the Community playing this great game.
This map couldn't look more beautiful! Plan to get the 5x10 version!
That’s a lot of map! Glad you must have the table space for it.
But it is an awesome map, perfect for Global War 1985.
Looking forward to getting that awesome map with the new units.
It is a great looking map.
Excited to get this game,and play it.
Its a really fun game, enjoy.
Im most looking forward to seeing how this game plays out at high player counts
With play options in Scenarios 1,2 &3, the game can be played with as little as 2 and as many as 7 players.
Excited to see your tactics in this game in future TH-cam wars!
Thanks my friend. Its a great game and it will be fun to see what the community does with it once its released.
I guess the underwater listening devices would be a great thing to see how that effects the game.
The SOSUS zones do pose threats for enemy sub movements. But the bold may choose to move forward despite the risk…
Congratulations on 200+! Looking forward to seeing and playing this game with you guys in Indy.
Thanks. Really looking forward to that game as well. Should be a great weekend.
Fantastic. 7 new subs in 3 hours.!!!
Thank your extended family for me! LOL.

I'm excited to see the game play to see how the game mechanics work with advanced weapons systems.
It is really well thought out and playtested. Strategic and tactical balance & tradeoffs make for some fun dilemnas for players. Enjoy.

Great insights into the game already. So glad it is finally being released. Enjoy!

The reference sheets and the models are what i am most looking forward to seeing.
The are well designed and thought out. So glad to see the game finally coming out. Enjoy.
Excited to see the A6 Intruders and F14s.
Love the 80s Naval aviation in this game.
I would love to see the ilwa battleships in action the most! Love your channel! Can't wait for a playthrough
Did I say ilwa I meant iowa.... sorry
Thanks for watching and the support. The Battleships & Battle Cruisers expansion is a lot of fun. I am perhaps biased, but the naval expansions are my favorite.
@@CaptainG9318 not at all. I'm with you, I love naval anything!
love this!
Me too!
This is going to be an epic game. Next evolution in A & A game. Cannot wait.
As someone who loves 80s stuff, I totally agree. Its a great game- enjoy.
@CaptainG9318 growing up in the 80s always itching for a Matthew broadrick "war games" style table top game. This is going to be the one.
Great to see all the comments and excitement for the game. Please don't enter me in the contest.
I'm very happy for others to try this game, you guys will love it. Was happy to help playtest this game for over 2 years.
Thanks for recommending me to Admiral Seabass. Looking forward to fighting First Blood- Part Two!
I am very excited for the release of 1985. Looking forward to the Warsaw/Soviet combination vs. NATO/USA. Have my pre-order already done!
Awesome! Dont forget China. One of my favorite parts of the game is how it works much like G40 in that players have many options in what scenario they want to play and where in the world they want to fight.

Like you, I too am looking forward to watching what the community does with this great game.
Excited to see the dynamics of the random events!
The random events add a lot of the 80s era flavor to the game and help make each game different from the last.
Where are the references sheets
Everything is getting rolled out. The wait is nearly over. Enjoy the game and good luck in the giveaway.
