Russia and US AAE1940

@surfer thanks for that clarification

@Smack

Rulebook says:

When Germany Is at War with the Soviet Union:
• 5 IPCs per territory if Germany controls Novgorod (Leningrad), Volgograd (Stalingrad), and/or Russia (Moscow).
Theme: High strategic and propaganda value.

The “or” indicates that it is 5 IPC per territory. Be it one , two or three.

not in 183 games, the fall of moscow means the writing is on the wall.  germanys bonuses need to be reduced from 5 to 3 (except norway) imo to prevent an unstoppable income flop, and bm air interception rules can prevent the easy suffocation of russia.  these two changes make the game a bit more fair

but what I’m saying is that germany would use too much IPC taking england and would not have enough forces to take russia. In those extra turns russia will have the forces from moscow and Stalingrad on the front and will be a strong force. I was a little liberal with the strategy though. In my opinion if England can buy enough infantry to make it a 50/50 deal, and get the germans to invest the money into a Sea-Lion, than I would think it would be a gamble that the allies would be more than welcome to take. But I agree you should not give your capital too the germans… even though I recently said too… I= fool.

I thought I had seen one as well, but I was unable to find it……

We were strictly following the setup, rules and NOs from Larry’s thread on A2:

We didn’t want to make stuff up since the stuff we’d make up would naturally benefit the person coming up with it!

Too many rule differences are confusing and has caused many arguments while playing.  That’s why we decided to stick to rules Larry came up with - OOB, A1 or A2.

yes! war of atrition… :evil: :-D

@questioneer:

I can prove it.  If you take a look at the back of your board where the map wraps around the end there is a whole centimeter of map that continues out of the edge.  You can easily see a centimeter long border after Lake Superior ends where ALBERTA HAS A BORDER WITH CENTRAL US.

Technically, ALBERTA BORDERS CENTRAL US.

Wow, I’ve actually stumped Krieghund!!!  Amazing!!!  I deserve a cookie!!!  If this gets overruled its because they know I’m right!!!

:-D

Why a cookie?
