@Tavenier:

Did you place the 4 free inf in Paris for France?

Yes. And I got a third round of good returns. I doubt I’ll see another game any time soon where France puts up that much of a fight.

These sound like really neat house rules. If the allies seem to win too many games over here we will probably use them. Potentially turning all of north africa over to the germans.

Tons of fun stuff with the french. Imagine the germans being able to move french soldiers around africa but the french turn back allied first time normany is landed in!

I play a bit of War At Sea as well. Reading the back of the french cards is entertaining. Ships escaping port and german capture with unfinished guns. Ships firing at americans landing in africa.

Heck, am i remembering right that the british landed in madagascar to liberate it from the french? Wasnt the HMS Barham or the Ramilles or some other old battleship there?

okay here is what I do take (1sub, 1fighter) to 109 (2subs, 1fighter, 1tatical) to 110 and 111 (battelship cruiser fighter tatical) to 112
(infantry, artillery) to Normandy (5infantry, artillery, 4 mech, 5tanks, bomber) to France

-this will let you take out most of the RN with just subs as loses and there will nothing that the U.K. can do take europe.

france will be controlled by Germany. just build a destoryer in seasone 112 to prevent fighter attack on your navy. build a minor factory in Romaina this will frist let you build units in a better position in eastern europe + let you build subs for the med. with this and Normandy you should be able to help out Italy enough

Even superpowers had a limit on the military establishment it could afford to maintain.

I don’t like the idea of adding units to a small country not at war; however I think the assignment of units to the neutrals could have been more imaginative, for example giving the likes of Brazil and Spain small navies, or Sweden some armour.  But these should be a once only build.

Unless perhaps you’d like to give Sweden a minor complex.

I’ve said it many times, by why not do it again! :-D

Yeah

Also in 5 and 6 China can be with the Russians.

I typically play with 2-3 people. Too many people makes the game waaaay to slow and too few makes it too boring.
