• TG MOSES VI,
    Ralph is still very much in business.
    U-Boats in this game come in two sizes.
    Coastal and Ocean.
    Coastal must stick to the coastline and move only one sea zone per turn. they attack at a two for the first round of combat, then at a one for the others(if any) they defend on a two or less. they cost 10 I.P.C., and take just one turn to be produced.

    Ocean subs may go out to the deeper water to hunt! they attack and defend the same as Coastal’s. but can move two sea zones. they cost 18 I.P.C.

    special rules for Germany only!
    you may build three subs per turn per shipyard production space(this is a whole other area to this game. you now produce ships in shipyards. and certain types take longer to be build than others)

    also with Germany and Itlay you may earn “IRON CROSSES”!!!
    how??
    there is a special British transport that must begin in specific seazones on the american side of the atlantic.
    if it can make it to a certain port in britian the brits recieve an extra 30 I.P.C. that turn.
    if the germans can sink it they are rewarded an “IRON CROSS” that is worth 2 I.P.C. and they get to collect this extra money each turn for the rest of the game.
    theres more but i’ll cut this short.

    their are rail stations, rail lines, some area’s even produce “supply” this is an optional rule that use’s one of Ralph’s first expansions.

    go to his web site and check them out.


  • Wow. You really covered everything I wanted to know. I like the ideas of subs, but defending subs? I’m not sure that’s very historically accurate if you ask me. The iron cross idea is kinda cheesy, but I guess it would make for some suspenseful moments. Anyways, thanks for the info. I think I purchase it and give it a test drive in the summer.


  • Glad to have helped.
    if and when you get it.
    write back and we’ll talk strategy’s


  • Koo. But due to the amount of school work I have, it’ll be a while before I can free up some time and break in the new kid. Plus I have to save up some cash. I’m a gamer on a budget! :smile:


  • Nice Map dude.


  • If you like that map, then you should check out Civil War or Napoleon in Europe. The game map is simply fabulus! :smile:


  • Sounds really cool, can you post a link? I’m a big fan of Napoleon games.


  • Sure thing Yanny :smile:

    You can check out some finely crafted games like Napoleon, Civilization, and Age of Imperialism. Not only are the games beautifully created but the battle system used in Napoleon and Civil War leave you wanting more from Axis and Allies. Support you fellow gaming community! :wink:


  • Wow, I think I know one of the producers of the Napoleon game! He came to my Gaming Group once and we had a huge playtest.


  • I have the Eaglegames Civil War board game,
    its great.
    Hella long to play thought.

    I was the South, took the midwest all the way up to Chicago, won the game.


  • You own Civil War II also?
    Wow that happens to be one of my favorite board games! :smile:

    PS: Too bad you live in Canada, I would like to get a nice game going with those from outside my usual gaming group. :wink:


  • The Rebel Elite Calvary is tight.
    The combat in that game is what makes it!

    Have you had Canada join the War yet?, LOL.


  • Yep, with Initiative and battlefield experience, I’ve ridden my Elite Band of Calvary in nigh-unstoppable campaigns

    I like the Confederacy the best since they’re more of a challenge and you get a chance to rewrite history. Hold the North at Richmond and slice through the rear western cities taking each city one by one is my plan. Haven’t been able to get any European intervention though.


  • TG, I’ve got a question about the civil war game.
    Do you drop the Naval rating to zero, or do you leave it as a 1.


  • I keep it a 0.


  • the game I’m working on is better then Ralphs as it has more territories and 8 reosourses and everything you can imagin in a WWII game


  • What are the eight resources?


  • theres people,cash,metal,gold/preciosjewls,wood,rock,oil, opps only 7
