Keep all OOB units the same

Cruiser OOB is now Heavy Cruiser but moves 3 spaces no matter where it is
new Light Cruiser is a 2-3, which is in between 3-3 and 2-2, cost is between too, but does not move 3 unless its in port. Reason is they were slower.

Peeps might buy the Light because of defense, or if they had 9 IPC left

It depends on your need for mobility or force projection. Russia needs Artillery to punch back, Germany needs the 2 movers to force the issue for Russia. The middle game comes and things change. Russia needs tanks at this stage.

@Dagon81

Can we get this is in PDF, .ai or .PNG?

I want to print from crisp images an playtest these

Your Welcome!

If you engage such a round and the purchases were secret, Germany could do a G2 Sealion

I don’t like the tit for tat dice roller. This means say attacker misses on everything, defender likewise. Next round attacker may get 3 hits and last second all the defending units hit for same amount. Its not the luck i remember on MSN game zone when we played classic AA via Milton Bradley computer game.

But alas i am hooked. I think im playing in every online game, and training for the Harry Larris setup, which is terrible and gives nothing for the axis. The German Bomber is out of range of the UK fleet on G1. But what it may do is balance the game. But i win regardless. Don’t understand why more people didn’t sink $17 bucks. Its well worth it to at least support the possibility of a G40 version of this game.

Getting tired on the constant reloads and freeze ups. They need to fix this ASAP, and they need to address why it takes so long to load up available games online.

Your not my nemesis, just a spec of dust that i brush off occasionally.

I would prefer that Airborne units have elite weapons and short supplies ( short duration think). As a result one bomber dropping such a unit, that unit attacks at 3 in the 1st round, 2 in round 2 and 1 the rest of the rounds. You can have a limited number of such units or based on Historical, or based on the IPC you spent raising these units.

Cost to upgrade one infantry unit to airborne=2-3 IPC… off top of head each nation can have 3-6 units

Germany 6
Japan 5
Italy 3
USSR 3
UK 4
USA 6
France 1 or Anzac 1

1. Frogmen- once per game ( or 3 times per game) the Italian player may make one target attack against any ship rolling 8 or less to hit.
2. Bersaglieri -up to X of these may be built, in combat they have automatic hits ( they were sharpshooter units)
3. Rommel effect- When German and Italian units are in combat and the German player has armored units, they receive a combat bonus of re rolling X misses.

@the-captain need to add Volkstrum in the same vein as Soviet conscripts due to balancing issues. They would presumably be triggered by loss of certain areas of the Reich, or a IPC level decline. same stats as Soviet conscripts

@the_good_captain I have the scans and could give you a link?

@barnee Move them 3 spaces at all times, and if they roll a 1, it hits a plane. Now its balanced.

@imperious-leader I still have global and Pacific on scan for large format but im lazy to finish. Does somebody need a huge scan of map for these games and can do some grafix work to edit the scans?

@old_no7 Can someone do a entire series of Xeno games for You Tube? Europe, Pacific, and Global. Entire games using the pieces. I think a good teaching component of these rules would help and strategy. These are great games!

@imperious-leader
