Yes, it’s a very good write-up.  There were one or two minor rules inaccuracies, though.  :wink:

Dammit, you can’t make such a statement, without spilling your guts! What inaccuracies did you spot!  :-D

One question I do have on his post…
Has it been determined yet if the Chinese can attack outside of their homeland?  I would have assumed they could.
Thanks.

That is a good summary. I can’t wait to get it in the future!

Hey, this forum has been around for some time, this one actually was linked to by Illustrious leader on another thread. And don’t believe the hype by Perry, he’s an old friend of mine…  :wink:

Seriously though I think we all can see Axis made some big mistakes in that GENCON game, which is good since then we know that the issue with balance might be quite good in the end. Right now I only have two worries:

1. Why isn’t Singapore included? I would’ve loved taking that place. But that’s minor, I guess Hong-kong will do…
2. Techs, are they balanced? Heavy bombers still seem to have game-breaking force and Germany can’t possibly stop that with another since it’s random. Rolling “Radar” doesn’t seem to be a very sure counterstrategy to those heavies.

All in all, this game is gonna be great! Can’t wait to get my hands on it.

Wait… they have TWO dice for technologies? That’s something I’d hoped for.
