3rd Edition Rules

@The_Good_Captain
Thanks Cap

Download the rules to 1941… that’s a modern version that should work with Classic (add-in any 1942SE rules you want).

In answer to #1:
No.  LZ’s have to exist for everything sent in.  “Planning” on losing a fig in terms of counting LZ’s would make 1 of the 3 FIGS a “kazee”

In answer to #2:
Anything NOT used in the naval battle CAN be used for the amphib.  The only thing that can participate in the naval battle that also is part of the amphib is the tranny, and that only to offload troops (thus not actually IN the amphib battle).

1 piece, 1 fight, per round.

So if your bomber did not fight in the naval battle, but has the range to reach the amphib attack area, it CAN be used.

…rules that is historically accurate and even makes sense…

Ummm……there is no way that Stalin would have put his forces under the command of the US or UK, or vice versa. Remember, after the Germans surrendered a large portion of the US military wanted to keep going to Moscow. Wisely they decided not to.

As far as the factories go, they are one of the most unrealistic parts of the game. The UK builds a factory in Persia and starts cranking out armor, not to mention aircraft carriers and battleships? Not an easy task.

Not playing by these rules is essential, as SUD said. I remember using them back in the dark ages and I could beat the axis without using the US at all. Russia holds off Germany while the UK pounds Japan and then turns back west and Russia and the UK run over Germany.

I take the same interpreatation as A_G, and so does everyone I’ve played against.

That wasn’t luck. That was STUPID STRATEGY on japan’s part. Take the Pacific isles, Alaska, and W CAN? GREAT! No pressure on USSR. Whoopie! :wink:
