Not yet. They’re working off pictures of the map.
I love how you need to play before the game’s even out.
Looks like the game might be restarting

You’re less guilty of wanting to play. :roll:
I was the German player. It appears the developers playtested this game very well! Germany is short always 1 unit here or there. Sea Lion is possible, but only if everything goes right, and there are a bunch of things that have to go right. If you do not credibly threaten Sea Lion, then the Allies can do other nasty things…whether and how you follow through with it…that is the question.
For those of you who have played AAP40 and noticed Japan always wins…well, with the USSR active…as you may have surmised, pretty much keeps Japan busy and China probably will not be taken out. Japan has to watch what happens in Europe as events there dictate how and when Japan attacks.
Its a fun game and looking forward to playing again.
Straight beast mode guys, and it is good to hear that the game is pretty balanced.
It may be balanced, but I hate how the entire RN in the atlantic save the carrier(a total of 3 DD, 2 CC(plus 1 French), 2 BB, and 2 tr) can be killed on G1.

Yes but the point is the game works. Germany may be able to wipe out the British fleet but they have to take units away from other areas of the map to do so.
I’m trying to get the game started up again but I’m not sure if we’re considering it a test or actually playing for real anymore, there’s just too many options for G1.
It seems the standard opening move of creaming the Royal Navy while its spread out G1 is still a winner. Sealion looks like it will consume just about everything Germany has on the board to pull it off sucessfully, however. It may just be best to build all inf for Russia G1 followed by tank and mech rushes with the loot from France.
We’re looking at 68 IPCs with the fall of France, so Germany does have some oomph to compete with the other Allies at first.
I have posted a new R1. Lets play the game!
All that is needed to destroy the RN is the Luftwaffe for one turn when they do not have that much else to do. The Germans losses are limited to a few subs and a plane or two. It is a bit extreme but i understand why it might be needed for balance.
