While I think having cuba be its own power would be cool, it would kind of like having New Zealand be its own power in g40. You would have to wonder how much they really contribute. Maybe you could make it so that the Warsaw Pact can pay to build units to support Castro and the gang in cuba, possibly at higher cost cuz of the blockades and embargoes and stuff, if the Warsaw pact is smart, like they were during the cold war, they’ll buff the hell out of cuba to prevent a traditional land invasion, and nukes aren’t always realistic. If they’re dumb then cuba will just be invaded and it will be an opportunity lost, which absolutely could have happened if the ussr wasn’t paying attention. I’m thinking about alternative rules where one or two players play each Nuetral category so it feels like they’re entities and not roadblocks, but I’ve got a ton of stuff I need to do before then soooooo… The setup for cuba will not change for balancing reasons, it accurately represents their power near it’s height, which was also the time when it was diplomatically plausible for the US to invade. For your expansion however, I recommend cuba starts the game Strict Nuetral with an army of one infantry.
The Great War 1914-1918: Clash of Empires
-
Yes with naval units
-
Ok, then I guess I will just have to blow it up, or just deal woth a small map.
-
Yes you can do that, but for sale its gonna be 5 feet tall x 3.5 feet
-
I also just noticed that the Russian, German and Austrian peices colors look alike. Is it easier to tell in person?

Is this game still alive? Because I followed this thread for years and it was nearly finished in 2013.
Hard to believe that I will ever hold this little plastic soldiers in my hand though I want to buy this game so badly, twice… Would putting the project on kickstarter do any help? -
Yeah I’m also really eager to get it! Even if I play only 2-3 times haha.

by color only, however i am trying to get HBG to produce a set of infantry pieces in correct colors so that at least those are unique.
The game is coming out this year, but dont have date yet

We thought about that, but the game is basically done already, funding already occurred in other words. Don’t worry its coming soon.
-
Yes YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES! THANK YOU!

Done or not, Kickstarter is a good route to go to get additional eyes on the game. Using Kickstarter does not require that you actually need the funds to create the game. Many companies are using it essentially as a pre-order system.
-
I’d be willing to help kickstart it. We need a good WW I game.
-
Yep, we sure do need one!
-
A BGG page wouldn’t do it any harm.

Oy vey, there’s no BGG page for this yet?
If it’s essentially ready to manufacture, get that BGG page up asap! It may seem trivial to many but it’s a great tool to have available, including for the end users who track their gameplays/wins/losses/scores/etc throughout the year (like myself).
-
Yes a BGG page would do well.
-
IL, I can’t tell you how many times I use BGG as resource. I’m with everyone, it can reach people who may not know about this website. :-)
-
Well can somebody start one? I cant for reasons i can elaborate latter.
just make it basic, ill load up pictures and add content
thanks to anybody.
