I’ve seen some people mention win condition changes to help better balance out the allies vs the axis. Does anyone have the pdf of the tournament rules people play with or know them off the top of their head? Also if anyone used them, did playing with the different win conditions make the game more fun for just casual play? Thanks!

@MindBlownAstronaut said in Rule clarification:

Lets say that Britain on their turn deploys a destroyer into a sea zone that has a german sub. On frances turn could they take a fighter and attack the subs? So that then in that battle there is a British destroyer and French fighter attacking a german sub. Would that work is is that not allowed, couldn’t find it in the rules.

Definitely not allowed. While multiple powers can defend together in the same square only the active power’s pieces are usable during the active Player’s Turn.

In essence, the British destroyer is completely ignored.

@barnee thank you

@TinCanoftheSea

Yes Anzac needs to help. Calcutta is going to fall regardless so either abandon it for Persia or set up a six plane scramble and make Japan lose lots of expensive equipment. If you are just building infantry Japan won’t even lose a plane.

A fun strategy is to drop AB on Borneo and get two inf and at least 3 fighters on it turn one. It creates a large expensive distraction if Japan wants the money islands

@dazedwit

It took a month but this game finally ended on J14

Axis were setting up to have Ottawa be final victory city but Russia liberated Cairo so had to keep going until Japan took out San Francisco

I’ve been doing some self play, and my preliminary estimate is that eliminating victory cities lets allies get away with about 20 less bid. That’s still a fairly rough estimate, but it does enable some very different allied strategies, it also lets them not have to force certain defenses as much as they otherwise need to, so they cna focus on income and positional advantage.

@Gargantua interesting strategy. What do you attack with your mobile force? Do you hit the main stack moving forward to moscow or do you wait from the flanks to attack his rear?
I think the succes of your strategy depends on how you use this mobile force, hence my question.
