The Great War 1914-1918: Clash of Empires

IL, I really like the map and basic ideas you have for your custom game, and I do appreciate you specialized units and rules.

However, I'm more of a fan of the "standard" Axis and Allies setup; say nothing more complicated than G40.

So, I was wondering if you would make an alternate setup or whatnot that just included the most basic of units? No special units or special rules (other than NOs) to each country? It would be appreciated too, though I understand if that's not feasible. Maybe that could be done after the game is released.

~Venoc, still considering getting the game either way.

I actually did this a few years ago for IL's old Great War rules and game. Not sure if I still have it. I'd only be willing to give it out if he says it's okay. I'm sure some updates would be needed based on changes that occurred between then and the current production version.

Well the game does have two versions: Standard and Advanced.

Less units in Standard like no airships, or seaplane carrier, plus historical event sequence is only part of the advanced game.

The game is in the same complexity level as global, just in a different way.

We have both grognads and AA peeps to make happy so that's why it has two versions.

Oh, okay, I didn't even notice that. Thanks for including that! Looking forward to the game! ^_^

Looking forward to the American Civil War version too!

Also, who are the grognads?

Variable, is there plans for an alternate set-up for G39 that does not use specialized units?

[Typhrus]

I must have this game! How are we looking IL?

[Imperious Leader]

This year late. Not sure the date exactly.

[CWO Marc]

Also, who are the grognads?

It's a typo.  The correct word is grognard, a reference to the elite members of Napoleon's Imperial Guard.

[Imperious Leader]

Typo, but the reference is for hardcore wargamers

[GoSanchez6]

Looks better with every update IL. Loving it can't wait to buy.

[Imperious Leader]

OK thank you.

What consistency of plastic is being used?  I'm a little worried about the German infantryman's schwanzstucker breaking off in the heat of battle.

The entrenched German looks more like an Australian.

Is the fact that the French infantryman is firing his rifle copied from the A&A version or is this just an amazing coincidence?

[Imperious Leader]

You will not have issues in that regard. I hate crappy Xeno type cheap plastic like the next guy
