out of the box rules take way too long since the tournament rules have been out that is all I’ve used. I really hope for a 2nd edition too. Bigger map,a few more unit types(heavy artillery,Bombers.) and Romania and possibly Bulgaria added as individual powers. This game and Anniversary are my favorite ones.

I do agree with you Flash we only play for about 6 hours. At that point we kind of come to an agreement who is the victor or call it a draw. I am with you that there should be a victory point system it would make achieving victory easier to calculate. After having multiple cocktails and the combat fatigue of playing this you sometimes lose track of what it takes for all of the countries to collapse.

I know you want to fix the OOB but I have found the tournament rules even this thing up quite a bit. I do think the game would have been better with more production zones per country and more victory city’s. We have had more central victories with the tourney rules because of the collapse system that Larry has come up with. I really like this game and hope he does an upgrade with new units and a bigger map. Cool game.

Got mine last week I put in the request on Dec 8th. I hope in the future this doesn’t happen again. Think of the time and manpower that was wasted fixing this when had they added a few more pieces. At least they made it right. I just wonder if this game will get a 2nd edition. I like the way it works I think the tournament rules are great. Played it 3 weeks ago with the guys looking forward to the next game.

The only neutral I attack is Switzerland for the Centrals. Persia for the allies. Don’t waste units if you don’t have to. Not to mention Holland then becomes the stepping stone for the British to invade Europe.

Did you play with the tournament rules? I don’t think it will take that long if you do.

I called them and talked to Josh and he said it would be 5 to 10 business days. It is at 10 days now curious when they will show.

I don’t agree with Shakespeare’s point but I definitely agree that these games are leaving a lot to be desired. Not just from a rules perspective but from a piece perspective. Battle board is tiny. No money and lack of German infantry and chips for both sides. I have played with the new tournament rules however and do love them. If you have the game Shakespeare give them a shot I really like them. I think you will too.

August will be here before you know it. Can’t wait for this one.

I know you guys are busy but I have completed my coaster set from you guys for WW2(AWESOME) Guys are gonna laugh their butts off when they see them. Real nice touch to the feel of the game night. Question are the WW1’s in the que? Would definitely order them as well. Thanks HBG.
