Does anyone leave Paris for G2?

Remember that France starts the game with 0 IPC’s. So on F1 they can not purchase any units, then collect 20 IPC’s! If paris does not fall G2 the Germany is definetly in trouble!

Tigerman,

I just looked up version 5.0 setup dated November 3, 2012, and it shows France with a starting IPC of 10.  Is there a more recent set-up I am not aware of?

:?

Me too. Just looked at the most recent set-up and it shows France with 10 IPC.

OK, so France does get 10 IPC’s as starting income. My bad…In the origional rules I had France starting at 0 IPC’s just to make sure that Paris would fall even if Germany had very bad battle outcomes. If it has been changed it was to make Germany go after Paris on G1. Sorry for the confusion!

Bad dice should be the only reason to take France on G2. Although,  if you failed to take out Paris like a chump,  you should probably just flip the board and start over.

If you dont take France G1 and UK is able to reinforce……your only option is to attack Russia and get Italy into the game to help take France.  EVEN THEN there is a 50/50 that will not work. Believe me I know.  France is a formidable opponent when backed by the UK.

You must destroy half of the UK Navy and take Paris at least by F2f or its an allied victory!

The only time I have put of Paris was not attacking the west at all. If that is the case, can the US attack Germany from French territory if France is only at war with Japan?
