Larry Harris 1914 Tournament Rules ( "potential rules" using his language)

@Mutu98 said in 1914 contested territory multiple countries combat question:

Which units will fight on germany side?
Just the german 6 inf 2 art and 1 plane or the combined 11 inf 4 art and 2 planes?

Only the German units attack. See page 22 of the rulebook.

Does it matter who controled the contested territory prior to contention?

No.

The Turkish Straits are entirely contained within the territory of Constantinople, so moving from Constantinople to Bulgaria does not require crossing the straits. As the straits are contained within a single territory and not at a border between territories, transports are never needed to cross them. It doesn’t matter what the odds are. Fighters may attack a hostile territory as long as at least one infantry also attacks (all of the units end their move in the same territory, so the infantry satisfies the fighters’ land unit requirement). Of course, if there is only one infantry, all of the fighters will have to be taken as casualties before it can be taken (see page 19 of the rulebook).

Interesting read!

Hello All,

Don’t know if you’re interested, but right now at Massdrop you can get A&A 1914 for $54.99 + $10.00 shipping. If enough of us join up, we can get it for $44.99.

Just thought I’d pass it along to you guys, Enjoy!

Nice job. I wish my wife would let me buy it, haha.  I think the beer is necessary for playing AnA!

You’d have to make SZ 20 two zones for Constantinople to be able to block movement like Suez.

@Flashman:

So no contested SZs, then.

Does that meant that, when a player with ships in a SZ that an enemy has just built a new ship into takes his turn, he must either fight the new units to the death or withdraw?

If I remember correctly, ships can avoid battle in previous A&A versions, but perhaps he’s changed it to simulate the necessity of breaking through the blockade?
