Drang Nach Osten: new USA units


The following are speculative World in Flames unit for the USA. They have been researched and created by Siegfried Nelson, altered and augmented by me for this scenario.

Units marked as "NA" instead of having a year are North American reserves. They appear as reinforcements the turn after an Axis or Communist ground unit occupies a hex in Canada, the United States, or Mexico. (This is the only way they appear.)

Special Note 1: may only move via AMPH (stacks as div) may only fire from AMPH which is debarking an invading div

Special Note 2: special ability to reduce enemy notional defense by -1 in addition to usual MAR div capabilities

Note: in truth there would be lots more cruisers, but no one ever builds the 1945 and earlier anyways, so just build them!
