AARHE: Phase 1: Final Draft

[tekkyy]

BO = Bomber
Maybe I should’n’t use abbreviations since there are more than one system. I recall you probably don’t use SS as submarine hence you asked what SS was that time.

Yeah we shall all go off and playtest a bit with friends before starting phase 2.

Previously I’ve only seen bmb or bmr for abbrev. for bomber, which is why I was confused. When I see BO I think “battle orders” or something. When I write up my version of phase 1 rules, I’ll start the writeup with a key to all abbrev. and terms.

If you haven’t started playtesting your rules yet, please start. I’ve still got to work out some stuff with mine before we can compare them.

Everyone’s pretty quiet. Playtesting right?  :wink:

The Anti-aircraft rule requires further clarification.

The ability to target a particular enemy unit is new to the game.

Select all search targets before performing any “search” rolls.
Select all attack targets before performing any “attack” rolls.

Inline with battles. You don’t get to see the outcome of one battle before deciding whether to have another battle or how many troops to commit. We model limited time AA gets to shoot at over flying enemy planes and you need to instruction them at the same time.

Yes important distinction. good point

[tekkyy]

By the way you can’t wear-down Germany over time any more with amphibious assaults.
The typical strategy is out the door.

With the new SS can’t kill SS rule…I just take it that combat ends when both sides only have SS left. I think thats our intention.

OMG have you been monitoring the forum? You replied 10 seconds later!

[Imperious Leader]

Yes! by accident!

[tekkyy]

I’ve updated to include the minor AA change of roll after all selections have been made.

[tekkyy]

Justifications for turn sequence, income and units rules added.

[tekkyy]

Finished writing justifications.

[Imperious Leader]
