@midnight_reaper that’s a cool idea and I might have to try it. However I don’t like the idea of getting advancements for free, which is why I like some sort of facility to buy. Since the G40 R&D board seems to have the better advances on one side I’d say you have to roll a 1-4 to get the 1 column, and 5-6 to get the second. Maybe even through in an added cost to get 1-3 & 4-6. But again with that, I think countries should have to build the facilities in their capitol instead of anywhere and starting with them.
IL's new KISS AA50 and AA42 House rules 1.1

KISS = Keep It SIMPLE, Stupid
Well, um, simple means:
sim·ple /ˈsɪmpəl/ Show Spelled [sim-puhl] Show IPA adjective,-pler, -plest, noun
–adjective
1.easy to understand, deal with, use, etc.: a simple matter; simple tools.
Easy to use? I guess after you use these rules in several games, maybe they might be2.not elaborate or artificial; plain: a simple style.
these rules are quite elaborate3.unaffected; unassuming; modest: a simple manner.
these rules are not very modest either4.not complicated: a simple design.
5.not complex or compound; single.
Level of complexity can be argued, but there are definitely more complicated than simple rules6.common or ordinary: a simple soldier.
these rules are not very common (dice challenges?) -

This is a rather impressive list of Techs IL… Very creative and relate to the spirit of the game components rather effectively. None of them seem too exaggerated. They usually also come with an interesting story-telling caveat as well. I could live with these.
Hey questioneer…
If I’m not confused it’s definitely not too complicated… :lol:Well i guess they are KISS then :mrgreen:
let me try to make it more clear.
The question was not what KISS means, but what i posted above your response is too complicated and not in keeping with KISS?

All of it.
My point was you are calling all of these changes SIMPLE, and they are not SIMPLE, IMHO.
The rules are probably fine. They’re just not simple.

Well thats fair enough.

just had another idea for the research roll
It decreases each turn, 6, then 5, then 4….etc
but get this…you only get to pick your tech on that tier on the roll of a “6”…all future turns may sucesses may or may not be decided by coin flip
So if you roll a 6 in land 2, you pick…if you dont succeed, and next turn you roll a 5, then your tech is decided by coin flip.
I tried to modify your techs just enough so that every power can use each one (russia might not be using tactical bombers much over water so I added Divebombing to the Torpedo tech you had)
Bravo Oztea
I love the techs and the research system is one of the best I’ve seen. -
He hasn’t explained it with examples. Too me its not clear what he is saying.
I think he is saying within the same tier you don’t get a choice unless you rolled a 6 and in the case you didn’t the tech is determined randomly?
-
Yes IL that is what im saying
Id at least like some element of randomness in the tech if you can succeed on more than just a 6any “non 6” success should have random tech determination.
-
ok along these lines:
tier 1 can choose which one you want- no roll needed
tier 2 can choose if you roll 3+
tier 3 can choose if you roll 4+
tier 4 can choose if you roll 5+
tier 5 can choose if you roll 6 only??
-
interesting….
a little more rules added to the mix, but interesting -
Russia only has 5 Techs. They are numbered 1-4 and 6. Maybe add Katyusha Rockets(modified Heavy Artillery).
-
Russia only has 5 Techs.
what does this mean? Techs are the same by nation, not individual.

@Imperious:
Russia only has 5 Techs.

he means NA
-
Yes, Thanks. 5 NA’s.
-
yes i need one more on that.
correct. -
@Imperious:
yes i need one more on that.
correct.I have an idea.
Urban combat, Russian infantry defending a victory city defend on three for the first round.
Or
Stalingrad, any German territory completely surrounded by allies will have one unit die of starvation each turn. The German player gets to chose the causality.
What do you think. -
Urban combat, Russian infantry defending a victory city defend on three for the first round.
This is better, but powerful. Sounds more like a Russian winter NA

bump

@Imperious:
bump
What does “bump” mean?
-
Means i got requests for what these rules are, so i post to make it easy to find for those who asked.

Are the updates that you were posting included in the “pretty version” that is downloadable on the first page?
