Reference stacking units one thing that might be considered is the ability to stack HQ units with other units. So a land hexagon could have up to one land unit, one air unit and one HQ unit. This might help alleviate some of the map ...

RE: Take WWII into your hands and create your best WarPlan!

I assume this is sea transport? So move to port, load fighter, unload bomber and start bombing next turn. (I assume an air unit that unloads doesn't have enough points for a mission the same turn?)

ORIGINAL: FlashXAron_slith

but none of the turn based games have a good system.

This is a turn based two player game. Based on good old tried and tested traditional board wargames. Nothing wrong with that.
