Perhaps more importantly, I am having each scenario start with the lending phase, skipping the reinforcement phase. In actuality, the lending phase too is often skipped, because two major powers on the same side have to be at war at the start of the scenario before they can lend anything. That isn't true for Barbarossa and Global War, for example.
Most of the reinforcement phase is irrelevant during the first turn since there are no annual additions, scrapping units has already been done, and there are no reinforcements to be placed on the map. Perhaps there might be a replacement unit available in one of the later scenarios, but that is very small potatoes. The only impact I can see for skipping the reinforcement phase, is the point Patrice raised a while back where the French might want to remove the carrier air unit and recover the pilot so it can be available for the next turn. However, that can be handled during setup by simply placing the carrier air unit in Air Reserve as part of setup. The pilot will then be available next turn.
