Version Alpha 3+ aa gun defending alone vs aircraft

In the latest printing, that last sentence reads, “Transports may not attack in a sea battle without being accompanied by at least 1 unit with an attack value.”

I believe that the celestial energy running from my third eye, through my chakras, and into my dice… allowing me to roll a 1 at will when facing an enemy strategic bomber raiding my factory… can’t be achieved with the automatic random dice roller machine used online.

So it’s table top for me all the way.

Let me have what your smokin…you need to share!!

Real simple, what are the ‘tweaks’ between the 2nd Edition and the latest Alpha rules?  Thanks.  Is it just the setup changes?

You do. I’m actually going to take out the changelist on those papers and put the full new deployment. Looking at the box then paper back and forth is stupid lol

Here is a conversation about this topic in the questions thread. Does “in Europe” refer to the continent, or the map board.

i think the continent, although initially i read it as board as well.

One step ahead of you.  More units for Germany, less for Russia, weaker US NO, and no more Anzac capturing the Carolines for the US, or UK/US threatening Berlin via seizing Denmark to open the straight.  Let me know if I missed anything major, I’m gonna go beat my head against the wall for a bit.

edit Russian Minor IC in Ukraine…interesting, and at least he removed the German initial Barbarossa territory grab N.O.  Overall though, seems to have strengthened the Axis slightly while weakening the Allies slightly.  I guess he went with what made the majority of players happy, can’t say I blame him.

Oh! So true, I just read rules again… obviously I misread it (and misplayed it) with my boardgames for quite a while

Thank you for the added answer! :)

@boboshonda:

Has anyone else noticed that on their boards the shade of blue in the ocean is different on the section that includes South Africa?  The other three boards are all the same shade.  It’s not a big deal, but it does drive me a bit crazy.  I have two set’s, and this is a problem on both of them.

Yes, it’s that way on mine too.  But if you scrutinize the water all over all the boards, there are a lot of different shades, and some of them appear intentional.  What bugs me is how the US doesn’t line up with itself.  Sometimes I like to set up the boards so that the US is all intact, so it’s easier to see the action there.  The break between Europe and Pacific seems to be a good place to have on the edges, as an alternative.  But the USA is nowhere near lining up on the side of the board.  :x

I see there are only 2 seazones between West Africa and South America still……  Kinda weird, considering there are 5 zones between Sumatra and Africa, but whatever…
