I added using Tournament rules as an option - didn’t think of at first because I’m not a fan of the quick movement.
Which power are you most excited to play?
-
Austria-Hungary-The House of Habsburg shall rise again :-D
-
Every Power is exciting to me… Maybe most are OE, AH and IT
-
As a general rule, I suspect the earlier a power is in the turn order the more interesting it’ll be to play, simply because after the first few players have had their turn the rest are largely reacting to what other’s have done, rather than having the freedom to explore their own strategies.
By the time we get to Italy, its a question of how it reacts to Austria’s move, rather than where it would like to attack itself.
-
Austria Hungary, because they get to kick off the war (set the tone) and can let big brother germany deal with the real allies while it throws rocks at the balkans and russia.
-
As the allies, i will play as France.
I shall restore france from the endless butt hurtings of the 1940 edition to greater glory. :-)
As for the central powers, ill go with ottomans. New nation with an interesting position and many strategies to try out. Can’t wait till i get my hands on this game. Going to be nice trying out this setting.
-
I’m most exited about Austria Hungary and the Ottomans. Two new powers with new strategies. But I’m actually pretty exited about the US. Does it go all out on the Western front or send a few transports into the Med? Between the two sides, I’m most exited about the central powers.
-
Or does the US send troops to russia via a convoy
-
Or do they simply build giant stacks of their glorious looking infantry to stare at while everyone else complains they haven’t even bought a transports :-D (hint: that will be me)
-
Which is basically my suggestion for the US: it can build nothing and collects no money until it goes to war, then it gets a draft of 20 infantry.
-
It’s a tie between Austria-Hungary and Ottoman. A-H because I have always been facinated with the empire itself and Ottoman because of the challenge.
Everyone seems to agree that Ottoman Empire won’t be able to do much… I wonder. From looking at the map and the initial lay outs it looks like it may be able to make a good push towards Sevastopol as well as push into Africa. If Russia pushes back they weaken their “western” front and I do not see Italy being much of a threat.
That said… Preordered today… Yay!!!
-
I’m going to turn this into a poll.
-
WEll now that I have to actually choose I picked Russia, just because they’re cool lol
-
Poor Italy gets no love.
Viva la France!! =)
-
Lets play what if and let the US enter early…I’m all abouf that!
