    @crockett36 Yeah, in my previous upload I didn’t spend 10 ipc. I was at work and had no internet so my video and the game had to end when I did combat. I’ll post the video after I update it.

    I work 9-5 pacific time so in case we don’t speak before you upload your video, my response to the absurdity of US dollars being affected by a complex in French Indo-China would be the same as anyone asking “why do infantry get to shoot down aircraft” or “why is a bomber from midway able to bomb the West Coast” (both of which I have seen/heard made before).

    This is a game that is slightly more complicated than Risk. It’s more ‘game’ than ‘realistic war simulator’ and that is its appeal. All of the pieces and rules around axis and allies are in regards to a projection of military clout - almost nothing is literal at the scale this game represents. There is a lot more to discuss and I’m all for your response video, I just worry that you may accidentally misunderstand my argument by some degree. I’m fine with it either way though.

    Here is my “Defense of Classic” video that might clear (or confuse) things: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvoZqqUr1p0&t=438s


  • @the_good_captain I have no time to get to it anytime soon. Hopefully the week after Christmas

    six more days to go. I’m playtesting next week, Thursday. Question, are you the kind of guy that could drop everything and catch a plane, one day here, the next day back? Theoretical question.

    J12.tsvg I am open to flying over there, I just can’t do it the way you described. I would have to plan it out a bit more. I really appreciate the invitation though.

    RE our game: The sub in the Caroline Is. could be in the Philippines. The sub in the N. Pacific could be in Hawaii, Caroline Is. or Solomon Is. Feel free to EDIT either or both of those as you see fit.

    RE chat: Holidays got busy. I think/hope I’ll have some time this week. I’ll give you a heads up.
