Fun Times with National Advantages

Or give all 5 nations 2 NA’s each, but let the Axis have ONE random technology, and once selected the option to determine which nation (Japan or Germany) would receive that technology.

That would pretty much even out the NA issue.

@Gerbilkit:

Um… I’m confused. How the hell are you stopping the Japanese from taking India round one if you’re pulling 2 infantry out, unless you have Colonial Garrison.

I ask at the risk of being obvious …

Were you playing 8 VC game?
If so, LHTR changed it to 9 VC.
So its ok to lose India to stop Germany getting Africa income.
Still an IPC win overall for Allies.

Not if Japan is able to build and fortify an IC there on the second round and be pumping tanks out towards Africa and the Caucus J3.  :-P

First Edition (though with 2nd Non-Weapon Prof added).

I have a LOT of dice, but in my primary set I have 25d4 for one of my character’s Cone of Cold :-D

I like those 13d4 Magic Missiles too :-)

The sound a Magic Missile makes… THWAP!

Asbestos’ Magic Missiles…
Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-THWAP!
Average Damage:  45 hit points… no save, automatically hit :-D

Remember when… Germany fell to Russian troops in a supreme 1-2-3 Allied effort. Just after that, Japan took Moscow, capturing the income of German territories too. As Allies had insufficient troops to retake Moscow and HOLD it, Moscow became a sort of Japanese no man’s land, because if Japan retook Moscow they would retake all German income again…

Still, I can’t keep up :-P

I don’t have that much time at work ;-)
(since it’s the only place I can look at the boards)

10 minutes for sure. We play a weekly game at the local hobby shop and it drives me nuts when some chowder head spends 20 minutes trying to figure out where to buy then another 20 minutes where to attack. Arrrrggggh! I usually loose intrest in the game because it is so hard to stay focused.

the dire rolling and combat resolution should be unlimited, after all there can be some pretty big battles out there and there may be times when you have to think hard on wether to push the attack or break off.

But yea 10 minutes for every thing but combat resoultion.

To add to ydavid’s comment, czech out the explanation that it gives, as far as “you could move a fighter from Hawaii to the East Indies in one turn, as long as you control both island groups.” Without Island Bases, your fighters couldn’t go anywhere near that far.

Basically it only helps the US in the Pacific.

normally use 6 but im having a game this weekend and were probably gonna roll for like 3 or 4
