Thanks Tex. This is just what I was looking for. I have gotton so frustrated with IPC errors that I did stop our last game after six rounds. Too many mistakes in IPC totals.

Where’s France’s total number of pieces?

This is the setup for the Anniversary Edition. France is not a player power in that edition.

Also, from a penalty standpoint, there’s no reason for Russia not to declare war on Japan on R1. Declaring war doesn’t require them to make an actual attack, but it does open their territories up for friendly occupation, making it that much more obnoxious as a US bomber base.

Thanks for the post, Frank. Yep, you pretty much summed up a few of the many reasons why OOB is fatally flawed, and you have the 30-35 games to back it up.

I get the feeling from my few games of Alpha2 so far (not going too crazy playing it - just a couple games at a time because it will probably be changed anyway) that the Allies still have a significant advantage in Alpha2. But I have to admit none of the games have lasted even more than a few rounds (with the Axis getting obliterated each time) so maybe those oil field NO’s could really come into play sometimes I suppose.

To me, Russia and USA have suffocating power (Russia is very deep, and as Larry himself acknowledged - he wondered if it was 1 territory too deep), and the UK can be very powerful as well.

Clarification on Alpha 2 Rule Changes pls.

I started working on a rule change aid since I’ve had some requests from a bunch of people on it. I wanted to post my wording for you guys to confirm accuracy before posting the chart. I’m trying to keep it all to one page which is proving difficult.

Note: I did not add the IPC shift for UK, nor the reduction in AA gun cost as that is reflected in the Game Aid already completed. The text will be as follows:

1.) AA Guns are removed from play if a territory is captured.
2.) Major Industrial Complexes are reduced to Minor Complexes upon capture. Only the ORIGINAL owner may upgrade it back to a Major if the
territory is liberated. Major IC’s cannot be built on foreign territories.
3.) The Soviet Unions Neutrality is not effected on opposing maps when only at war with European, or Pacific Axis powers.
4.) Scramble Rules have been changed to the following:
1.) Takes place at the START of the Conduct Combat Phase for powers AT WAR ONLY.
2.) If there is an active Air Base a total of 3 Fighters and/or Tac Bombers located on an island or coastal territory may scrambled to the adjacent
Sea Zone. Rare Sea Zone cases that are adjacent to multiple active Air Bases can scramble 3 planes per Air Base.
3.) Can help friendly naval units under attack or to resist an Amphibious Assault even if the Amp. Assault is on a different territory.
5.) Victory Conditions are as follows: AXIS - 6 of 8 Victory Cities on Pacific Map OR 8 of 11 Victory Cities on the Europe Map
ALLIES - Control of ALL Axis Capital Cities
6.) Unites States’ Minor Industrial Complexes are upgraded to Major when the US is at War. These IC’s can be upgraded for the 20 IPC’s while Neutral.
7.) Strategic Bombing Raids now follow the following order of Combat. (Note: Strat Bombers can attack IC’s, Air or Naval Bases. Tac Bombers can
attack Air or Naval Bases):
1.) Any Escorts (Fighters) attack at 1 against any enemy Interceptors (Fighters). Casualties are removed IMMEDIATELY.
2.) Strat and/or Tac Bombers attack at 1 against any enemy Interceptors. Casualties can defend.
3.) Interceptors attack at 2 against attacker Bombers. Escorts may only be taken after ALL Bombers have been destroyed.
4.) Surviving Bombers declare which facility is to be targeted.
5.) Facility AA Gun Defense hits on 1. Roll one die for each Bomber attack the facility.
6.) Bombers attack. Strat Bombers add +2 to the dice rolled. Tac Bombers hit on dice rolled. Damage removal is on a 1:1 ratio.
8.) The United States may declare war on the Axis if London and/or any North American Territory is captured.
9.) Subs no longer can fire a ‘sneak attack’ at unescorted Transports. Transports cannot unload from a Sea Zone with an enemy Sub unless a friendly
warship was also present during Combat Movement.
10.) The United States Navy, while Neutral may only occupy Sea Zones adjacent to their territories, excluding Sea Zone 102 (No transports) on the
Europe Map. On the Pacific Map the Navy may not end movement in Sea Zones adjacent to Japanese controlled territories.
11.) Kamikaze Strikes can be used in any of the marked Sea Zones where an Allied player conducts Sea Combat or an Amphibious Assault is to take place.

Surrender isnt part of our vocabulary, correct me if I’m wrong in alpha2 when London falls that brings the US into the war, so why not fight or just give it away I game for the battles (Kursk) = big tank battles between Germany and Russia or (truk Lagoon) big naval battles between Japan and USA or the Battle of Britain/Sealion. and I like to win , to add or change the rules can be fun but this game was not designed to be redesigned by all of us, It’s a step up from the Anniversary edition. If because the Axis won the last 4 games means the Allies cant win , then I think you may be missing some thing but I dont think so from what I can tell the people on the forum are skilled, experienced players. There are a bunch of people who think the game is unbalanced with the Allies being the one with the upper hand. This subject might get ya to think that it is balanced the other way. In 25+ yrs I’ve seen where one side will get a bunch of wins only to be offset by the other, overall I would say that the score is about 50/50 we play on average 2 games a weekend. How did Hitler say it……fight to the last man I think Stalin said it to… Keep gaming and post the results.

@Krieghund:

Try using the same setup, but adding an NO for Japan that gives it 10 IPCs each turn that it’s not at war with any of the following powers: USA, UK/ANZAC, or France. Have fun, and let us know how it goes!

i will glad to see it in the next faq, because this “new” Japan is a bit weak. i think this new NO is a good point between historical accuracy and balancing. I hope that will be approved by LH.
