Format:
Game Rules:
Bidding:
Players should randomly chose who will bid first. The initial bid should be in the form of “Alliance: #” where “Alliance” is either Axis or Allies and “#” is the IPC bid. The opponent should then either:
o Approve the bid
o Offer a lower # value (including into negative values)
If a lower value is offered, then the decision will revert to the other player. This process should be repeated until a player approves a bid offered by their opponent.
When a bid is approved, the player who made it has purchased the right to play the alliance from the initial bid for the compensation of the agreed IPCs.
If the IPC bid is positive, it will go to the alliance from the initial bid. If the IPC bid is negative it will go to the opposite alliance as a positive value.
Spending the Bid:
Bid IPCs can either be allocated to the treasuries of the nations from the alliance receiving them or spent on additional units in the starting setup as follows:
- Limit one bid unit in a territory or sea zone.
- The nation placing a unit in a territory or sea zone must have started with a unit in said territory or sea zone prior to placing the bid.
- China is limited to bid units of: Infantry, Artillery, AA Guns (the units China is legally able to purchase) These units are still limited to movement/placement restrictions of Chinese units.
Tournament Moderator:
