@hengst This house rules forum is full of ideas. To avoid scripted games you need a varaiety ways to win or lose a game in a reasonable amount of time ,eg 8 to 12 rounds.BBR and 3G40 are rulesets that encourage you to win by achieving various victory objectives.(not just victory cities)
3G40 changes turn order,merges Anzac into UKPacific,and sticks pretty close to oob rules.BBR is more complex than oob and is real popular.Both are designed to play in 1 day and to be able to declare a winner.

Did this for the first time and had a lot of fun. The person I play with and I find it very hard to beat Japan, even with the changes sugested on the Avalon Hill website. So we did a historical modification which gave us a very close game where the allies won.
Historically, the British were already at war with the Japanese by December of 41. So we only allowed the sneak attack advantage against the Americans.
Any one else ever try this? -
Trying this this weekens and will kepp you posted

Hi there!
Me Myself encountered the same problem: Japan always wins going for VP’s.
I wanna try out this adjustment which sounds pretty interesting and might give a chance to the Allies
Thanks for good suggestion ; )

Must have been an earlier post I can’t read now, but what were these new house rules you refer to? I can sense that one of them is no Japanese first turn advantage against UK targets. Any others?
