oh boy. I knew if this thread appeared it would be you undoubtedly to start it.

I think its premature until we get some pictures of the map. The fact sheet can only get us so far.

I want to know what else keeps the game exciting the first few rounds besides the sino-japanese war.

Like what kind of options do the allies have to interfere with Japanese expansion early in the game?

@allboxcars: I’d add the rule that before using the piece, the owner must first loudly declare “I’m going commando!” to activate it. Commando attacks get +1 bonus for each opposing player who does a “spit take” in reacting to the announcement. lol In my play group it’s understood that someone is always going commando

@CaptRick I admire your work in building this game (the boardgame) and follow the progress of your design with great interest. I know how hard it can be at some moments because I went about a same course myself. But what I personally really can’t understand are the colors that were used. And by that I mean Are the colors of the units and the colors used on the gameboard. Perhaps it is a matter of taste. But they are way to bright, almost like candy. Why did you choose these color preferences above a more softer more serious looking color. I don’t want to offend you in any way. Absolutly not! But I’m wondering. I’m from Holland. Maybe that explaines a lot. Best regards, Hicks

Now have 2 sets of rules with optional rules. Standard rules use a more Axis & Allies turn based system. In standard rules, all Axis move first simultaneously, followed by Allies. That would encompass 1 entire season (4 seasons to a year). Defender withdrawing still allowed, but can no longer move units into space the attacker is attacking (except for air units). No more initiative in standard rules. PM me to get an updated copy of the rules. Cheers

dude, i did it twice Actually, Upside-down_Turtle comes from my early Star Craft days. Basically, in a 3v2 game, I’d be the odd man out as Terran and essentially be a non factor. I’d maybe get off an expand or two, but eventually “turtle up” and suck all my minerals dry. Then I basically pray my buddies won the huge battle I had no part in. Otherwise, I was easy pickings. Best run I had was as the zerg. Captured, like, ten minneral fields in the middle of the map. Problem was, no one could attack anyone else unless they went through me. It was like a giant Hydralisk meat grinder. They kicked me out eventually, but it was a good run. 8-) Oh yeah, and I almost killed someone with a Zelot rush That settles it, I’m Googling Star Craft II videos…

We have introduced Oil rule la couple of years ago. In our 1939 game rules, Axis players doesn’t have oil so they have to fight to get some because they’re going to face a penalty after the 7th round. If you conquer a neutral oil territory you receive form the bank, twice of the value of the territory. Ex: Saudi Arabia = 2 IPC so you’ll receive 4 IPC. When you invade an ennemy oil territory, the player must give you twice of the value of the territory. Ex: Egypt = 2 so UK player must pay 4 IPC.
