Our gaming group has come to the conclusion that some bid is needed to balance the game for the Allies. In reading through the posts it seems to me that the general consensus is that the Allies need a bid of about 9-12.
My questions are:
Is a bid of 9-12 the current and reasonable amount? As we will not want to bid for a particular side, we will set a certain bid point for each game and then let people choose which side they want to be as some Players enjoy playing particular Powers. So what is a fair bid?My group usually goes 10-15, some where in the ball park of 8 to 14 is what everyone does.
Is this bid added as starting income to be spent on Turn 1?What Siparo said.
Is this bid added as units and money such as the Revised FIDA bid?Never played revised, and what is FIDA? Another government agency?
Is this bid added as units on the board with remainders as starting money?Siparo doesn’t do it, but my group allows it.
For any units placed on the board are there any restrictions? For example:
a) Must have a unit already in the territory / sea zone?
b) May not place more than X number of units?My group has 3 rules:
1. Must be one unit per territory/seazone.
2. Can only be placed in a territory/seazone where you already have units occupying it.
3. Can only be a unit that power has access to (china can be inf and art only).I would appreciate your kind thoughts and comments. Thank you…

You have Germany starting with 2 Tac bombers and 1 Strat bomber. I thought it was 2 Strat bombers and 1 Tac bomber. I could be wrong though, just want to be sure of the correct setup. Fantastic work by the way! These charts and aids are awesome. Thanks for your hard work!

Good observation, we will need that fixed.

Wow, these are great.
How do you recommend printing them? On thick card stock? Laminating them?
Nevermind, you answered that in the 1st post. Thanks again! -
@ Little_Boot hehe no prob man :)
I have one last update for these charts, as i want them to be perfect. I fixed some sizing issues with the unit silhouettes on the Unit Reference Chart. This will be the final update for cosmetic fixes, however, I will be updating them for major errors, if needed be.
the new charts are designated with a “1.1a” prefix
thank you everyone, Enjoy :)

China’s capital in 1937 was Nanjing (near central coast of China), not Beijing. In fact, Beijing was the capital only after the proclamation of Chinese People’s Republic (1947, if I’m right)
Both cities were taken in 1937 by Japan but still you should correct that :-)
-
YES!!! COOL, AND TANK-YOU!!!
-
ty it has been fixed

Love the charts!
As a personal request, do you have plans to make a National Objective Chart where you could track NO’s with the nation indicator chips? It helps in keeping track of NO’s immensely during income collect phase.
Great work!
