11. Now it is the Allied turn. The same procedure is followed as before. The defending CAP fighter shoots at the incoming planes, and they get to fire back.

12. The Japanese CAP fighter misses, but the Allied planes shoot it down.

13. Both planes select the same carrier group to go after. The ships miss their AA fire, so the planes are free to attack.

14. Both planes score a hit on the carrier and it is sunk. Planes must now return home.

15. Planes on both sides must land on their carriers. The US plane lost its carrier, and so must ditch at sea (destroyed). Both sides may reshuffle the composition of their groups. At this point, the Japanese player decides if they wish to retreat, and they choose to continue the battle instead. The Allies, however, choose to retreat, The Allied ships return to port and the Japanese fleet continues on its original mission.

@iwillnevergrowup said in Can an Axis and Allies -style US Civil War game actually work?:

It absolutely can work, and work well.

Robert Otto created one in May 2022 called Total Civil War 1861-1865 and had it produced in limited quantities as a full boxed set … but at $350 a copy it was expensive (though considering only about 50 … maybe 100 … were printed, it makes sense to me (as a publisher)).

Unfortunately I don’t think he plans on doing it again and the website he had for taking orders is no longer available.

As for why it wasn’t released by MB/Wizards/Et.al. is probably because of a lower demand (even if only perceived) vs other projects. They also pretty much abandoned anything new or novel for the line quite a long time ago and just updated or tweaked and rehashed everything repeatedly. Their last great ‘innovation’ was A&A Zombies. Now that it’s in the hands of Renegade Games, who knows; they’re more open to new games.

Yes it can as will stated. I do have the game

I have done one by myself…way better.

@ABWorsham:

What I like most about the game is the gameboard. The actual game did not fit my taste, the underworld and the threat of Atlantis sinking at any turn.

We had two players consumed with the thought of Atlantis sinking. That was the game to them. It was funny with it happened, a player had put all his forces on the island.

@Jermofoot Heck Yeah!!! Bringing back the old band.

Zauriel,

the Risk 2210 rule book sez you may buy up to 4 command cards per turn.

It’s easy to miss this rule – just a one-liner somewhere near the front of the rule book.

So, that pretty much limits you. You can certainly end up with a pile of cards by turn 5, if you save em… also on each turn you can add a free card (along with a free chip) by virtue taking three territories by combat (doesn’t count if the territory was unoccupied) – but only one such chip-and-card can be earned per turn, regardless of how much turf you overrun.

Also, I can’t recall, but it seems to me that unlike in Risk, in this futuristic update the elimination of an opponent does not yield his cards to your deck. Instead, his cards are eliminated right along with him!

… happy nuking!!
