1942 Rule Clarifications

No big news of course, as most of you will know, but I wondered why there is no link to the rulebook of Spring 1942 in this subforum.
At least not a stickied one.

May be it is because Wizards/AH made them available to the public some time after the release of the game.

Anyway, here is the link to the Spring 1942 rulebook:

or a smaller file from this website:

Here is the direct link to the official FAQ:

bananasling, if memory serves me correctly, the way you interpreted the rules was the way older versions of the game were played.

Not only can you do this with navy but with land.  You can attack and capture a territory then with your non-combat phase move tanks (that of course did not participate in any combat) through that newly captured territory and beyond it to a friendly territory on the other side to say reinforce an ally’s position.  Krieghund will correct me if I am wrong but when it was done to me for the first time….its hard to forget.

Like Krieg wrote.

But tanks get lonely too.

Oh yeah forgot about the printable maps! Thanks!

Yes, it does.

I know you want to play, so don’t be a wanna-be-player!

Be a PLAYER!  :mrgreen:

@St.:

I hear alot of people say that revised is more complicated than spring 1942. Now I played the classic version when I was 12. Sure it was a long time but aside from the tech and the board being diffrent I dont see to many changes from the two, and neither one really seems more complicated than the other.

So what happand in revised that was taken away that makes it more complicated than Spring 1942

Other than the Technology and the National Advantages (although the NAs were optional) the game system is essentially the same. I almost never play with Tech because it can be a game breaker.
