Event Cards

Thanks for Dagon81 National Advantage cards that he designed for AA50. I took the liberty to put in additional cards to input more fun and challenges for the game with Bloodbath rules. Not for the purists but hopefully it will be helpful for the other players. Cheers!

The 6 main powers will starts with the “Base card that comes with red star” plus 2 random drawn NA cards. Every turn, continue to draw 1 NA card from the deck into your hand. China will be much simpler…Just the “Base card” plus 2-3 random NA cards before the start of the game.

There’s total 20 cards for each Power and 10 cards for China…Total 130 cards.
*do pardon my English grammar in it.

Please feel free to take and change to whatever you want.

House Rule: Fortune and Tactics cards, for the Dimensional Battlefield official LHJ Mode.

The Order cards 09a and 11a, do not have fortune and tactics cards, these, created by me, could help to improve gameplay of this mode, and avoid confusion, when playing with the 3 decks.
The optional rule of these Order cards will not be used, since it is now considered as a penalty in the fortune cards.
The cards are placed after the 9 and 11 of each deck, and read as follows:

Fortune cards

09af. Allied artillery fires. (Allies)
Roll a die.
(1) Explorers: reroll all failed dice once, in this phase.
(2-3-4-5) There is no effect.
(6) Moving targets: Targets are not pre-selected. On each roll of 1 the allies choose the eliminated unit. On each roll of 2 the Axis choose the eliminated unit.
(Optional additional system. This card is placed after card 09f)

11af. Axis artillery fires. (Axis)
Roll a die.
(1) Explorers: roll all failed dice once, in this phase.
(2-3-4-5) There is no effect.
(6) Moving targets: Targets are not pre-selected. On each roll of 1 the Axis chooses the eliminated unit. On each roll of 2 the Allies choose the eliminated unit.
(Optional additional system. This card is placed after card 11f)

Tactic cards:

09at. Relocation of troops. (Axis)
Replace blockhouses that are in areas free of allied units with lost infantry. One infantry for each blockhouse.
(Optional additional system. This card is placed after the 09t card) (Remove this card after use)

11at. Sabotage of German supply. (Allies)
Allies can choose up to 6 units from the axis reinforcement board, and roll a die for each of them. Every 1-2-3 the unit is eliminated from the game.
(Optional additional system. This card is placed after the 11t card) (Remove this card after use)

House Rule: Allies victory condition.

The standard OOB condition states that the allies must capture, and then hold at the end of a full turn the 3 victory cities, which effectively makes the game 9 turns for the allies. I believe that removing the condition to hold cities for an additional turn would make victory more feasible for the allies.

New condition: allies must maintain control of the 3 cities, at the end of a turn.

@Partydad do a search on the forums here- there are several groups here that use a variety of well-tested event cards.

HMS Victorious:

On turn 6+, if US player has only 1 undamaged carrier in the Pacific, the HMS Victorious is made available for use by the US player for the turn.  The US can start the carrier in Hi. Is. or in W. US.  The carrier is removed from play after 3 turns.

Monsun Gruppe:

Donitz created a plan to tie down anti-submarine forces in the Pacific.  Monsun Gruppe (Monsoon Group), 3 type IXD U-boots, were sent to operate off the waters of Australia.  On start of any Japanese turn 6+ if Japan has 0 units in Australia, place 1 German submarine in any Japanese naval base off of sea zones 40+, or in sea zones 40, 58, or 59.  This unit can only operate in sea zones 40+ for 3 turns of play.

I’m sorry, 1942 is the edition I always play now and I had a brain cramp and thought they were priced at 16. It’s the price I think they should cost, but you’re absolutely right, they’re at 20 and so we never buy them!

Sorry everyone, I will need to push my deadline to another week, there is a lot involved in preparing the illustrator file to work in artscow. I will do everything I can to make these cards available to everyone here as soon as possible.

This is based on the assumption that if one nation gets an arms breakthrough, the odds are that it will be easier for other nations will get it too, by copying it. Â

We have done this before - at the start of the game pass out a “copy” card to each player.

Say your opponent gets something really good like heavy bombers, or the Atomic Bomb or some house rule thing that could wreck you. Roll for an arms breakthrough as normal. If you get a six, instead of rolling for which random breakthrough you get, you now have the option of playing your “copy” card and copying something that is already on the board.

This helps keep the game competitive and less luck driven. It also adds a bit of strategy. Do you want to use your card to copy those super subs now or hold onto it in case someone gets long range aircraft? Decisions, decisions…

For long lists of custom Arms Breakthroughs, pass out two cards each.   Â

I’ve put together a sample card for General “Vinegar Joe” Stillwell, if anyone’s interested.
