IPC for each country in alpha 2

There is a usefull IPC chart available for use at the website  I Will Never Grow Up.  If you scroll down a bit and look for a APPS logo on the right side it will take you a spot that you might find helpfull.  The chart goes up to 104 and you can move the countries markers around. I use that a lot.

Wittman is right about the importance of taking Paris with Germany.  A couple weeks ago, my group had an interesting development– Germany failed to take Paris due to horrific rolls.  Usually, that would end the game, but the Italian Player ended up taking it, and he went wild with the extra income-- he controlled all the Med and knocked the Allies out of North Africa and was well on the way to South Africa by I5 or I6.  Despite Italy’s success, Germany was never able to get that subtle edge over the Soviets.

Without the income boost, Germany cannot mount a very viable SeaLion, AND the build-up to Barbarossa is too anemic to make the push on Moscow really strong.  It is amazing how vital that 17 IPC boost is for maintaining a good head of steam.

Welcome to A&A ccasey!!

what you do is you buy troops
you do your combat move if you win the territory you raise your ipc amount up as many numbers as the territory says
then at  the end of your turn you look at the National Production Chart and Collect that amount for that country
your countries DO NOT share there money’

Keep Playing

It’s difficult to say.  Only time and testing will tell.

@McMan:

We’re about to start a game of Europe. Should we use Alpha with the blue changes?

My suggestion is to go ahead and use the Alpha with blue changes.  Our battle group just played a game of E40 this past Saturday and we used that setup and rules.  We did, however, change US NO #1 to read:

1. Collect 10 IPCs per turn for complete control of the continental US (CUS, EUS).

Ok.

The original Rules Clarifications (copyright 1991 Milton Bradley Company. All Rights Reserves. 4423-X10):

Topic: Miscellaneous
If a country’s I.P.C value goes over 45, place two markers on the board. For exampla, if your I.P.C. value is 48, place one marker at 45 and the other marker at 3.

Don’t panic veteran!

We will survive this version, too. :wink:

@Funcioneta:

@UN:

I’m wondering if someone could clarify this to me.

I’ve heard that India and Great Britain will have separate IPC incomes. If that’s true, does that mean all British Pacific territories goes to the Indian IPC?

Does this also mean that there’s a possibility that there can be a houseruled seventh player as British India? Would it work?

I also heard that the United States has a split income as well between the Atlantic and Pacific. So does that also mean that there could very well be an (again, houseruled) eighth player playing as either the European American forces or the Pacific American forces?

Higher number of possible players is 10:

USSR France UK India ANZAC China USA Germany Italy Japan

You’re not going to have much fun playing one minor allied … just give to one player all the minor allies, so practical max number is 7 players

Knowing me I will do this, just like AA50 I sometimes broke out China from the US. Believe me I could get 10 people over, (a lot of them suck, but compared to a lot of people on here I guess I suck  :-P ) That will be fun!

I forgot Madagascar as  French territory, so Paris may be 4
