@DoManMacgee Thank you for feedback. Much appreciated.

As we speak I’m working on a WWI Blog, and also the new A&A Stalingrad game, and reading books about WWII economy, so this blog will not be edited anytime soon. I also have OCD when it comes to accuracy and prefection, so I need time.

I actually did consider using the HBG map, but had to turn it down for several reasons. First, HBG is fanbased and not official. I want to use the official A&A maps, pieces and rules as far as possible. Also, living in Europe I am not aware of legal issues when using stuff from other companies in Blogs. It feels more safe to stay to the official A&A franchise. I’m not rich and can’t afford a law suet (spelling? English is not my first language) Also I’m conserned bout the visuals. The A&A maps looks good. I don’t like the glossy colors on the HBG maps. Most of all I want to mix the A&A 1914 and the A&A 1940 global maps, somehow, But again, legal issues? I can do so much in my basement with friends, but an official Blog? I dunno man.

The problem with “in-game rules” or OOB (out of box) rules, is, as far as I am conserned, I don’t love them. This rules are designed for game balance, playability and ease of play. My 5 years as soldier and studying military history for 40 years, make my stomach turn upside down when reading the rules. Very few of the rules make sense. Take the new Stalingrad game. Now that was a missed opportuinity. A regional map with plain steppe terrain perfect for maneuver warfare with Blitzkrieg, Deep operations, breakthroughs, flanking, hit and run, and a city map with urban warfare, and the designer ruined it. Both maps have typically trench warfare and attrition. I love the supply rule, and units beeing out of supply when encircled and under siege, just as in a real war, but for some reason the designer ruined all the possibilities. We can only fix it with a lot of House Rules. And that is what I am working on as we speak.
