@domanmacgee No, No. That i know. The King and Kaisers Rules.

1914 has very expensive prices in Germany. I wait for Renegade Games.

@Caesar:

You can’t liberate and then attack the same zombie territory.

What do you want to say?

It is technically impossible to do that during the same turn:
Combat ends in step 8 and the territory is liberated in step 9 of the General Combat Sequence.
You never liberate territories during combat steps 3-8.

Of course you may attack zombies present in the liberated territory during the next turn.

I’ll write a blog post around it eventually but the game ended in a stalemate of sorts. After 4 hours we wanted to play some other games.

I voted indifferent because I’m still holding out hope that:

The undesirable zombies can be house ruled out.

The map is a good medium sized map (a la Revised/42SE).

The “1939 Scenario” that the WOTC rep mentioned in his interview with A&A.org a few months back is fresh/worth playing.

I’m still willing to hold out hope because the only objectively terrible A&A games are 1941 and Spring 42, the latter of which is only terrible because the small map made the game unplayable.
