The Yom Kippur War boardgame

@lydian
WE have done on our own longtime ago based on the xeno game but we change the rules, map and chart.278999193_2826327174327899_1594387835970128913_n.jpg 278671828_728074555207246_8848699411888115333_n.jpg 279156672_3237479476496915_4160741075211625688_n.jpg

Volko Ruhnke took a lot of ideas from Twilight Struggle.  But the two do play quite differently from each other despite their similarities.

I don’t plan to buy the expansion (and I’m an expansion whore, so this is a big deal).

I like the new ships, but I really dislike the cinematic combat (and I really liked the interaction between dice and tactic cards in the original system).

I do like the new ships and green dice, but the leaders - while I don’t dislike them - only serve to dilute our chances of recruiting each of the classic characters which I like a lot more.

I haven’t played this in a while. Maybe my group missed something. It always seemed to me thought that France could easily hold its coast while running over Austria and even Prussia if necessary and then slowly over power Russia since they are making so much money at that point. I always found that Britain’s only chance was to try to run through Spain and hopefully do it faster than France gets through Prussia and Austria, then kill France from both sides. However, it has been a while and my opponents tended to also make major mistakes so that could have lead to me finding this game very one sided.

Okay so I know what your all (okay maybe only a few people like me) are thinking. “Why don’t we have a good Axis and Allies WWI game?”. Well heres a thread to post all your ideas for the game. Maybe we can get Larry or Krieghund to look at it and maybe it’ll give them some ideas. Heres mine.

When they make it I hope they do seperate fronts. With a Med. board, a Europe board, and a Africa board. Maybe even Pacific.
