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

I don´t need a strategyguide for the Allies ,because they win all the times.

What I really need is some input for playing the Central Powers especially Austria and the Ottomans.

You should impose a 15 turn maximum for each game, to prevent players from farming points to much.

There should be national objectives which nets players points. However, anyone can get them, which makes for a king of the hill style game.

E.G:
+1 point to whichever player controls Berlin at the end of the game (If its contested, nobody gets it)
+0.1 points for every IPC you collected during the final phase of the game
+1 point whenever you conquer an enemy capital (one time only, for each player)
-1 point when you suffer from economical/political collapse (one time only, for each player)
Etc.

I have European war 3 for Iphone. Its ok and kills time when needed. I do like the map.

That’s the nicest thing anyone’s ever said about me.  :-D

I want to sign up for Flash fan club.

I think that he is a political laxative.

@goalievogel:

How do units move from space to space without a non-combat phase? Sorry, I never saw the FAQ!

1. Can the Russians that were being attacked retreat from the territory? Or do they have to stay put?

There are fewer phases in this game.

Purchase
Move
Combat
Deploy purchases

Naval changes things up a little, and Air power adds in some twists, but in general that’s all there is.
You cannot retreat after combat (in the same turn) as there is no non-combat movement phase.  You have to wait until your next movement turn to retreat any of your land based units (including fighters).

All of these rules are very well spelled out in the book (minefields, movement, transports + planes, etc) though it MAY require 2 or more readings to understand how they all interact as not everything is laid out in a simple format.

@DrLarsen:

Oh, and keeping the same scale (or close to it) is important not just for WotC compatibility, but also so that it fits on a game-board and so that guys like HBG can keep doing what he does so well…

@Imperious:

Yes exactly.

Love that :-D  (self confessed Scale Addict)

Would be neat to see the Chinese communists represented, they should have special guerrilla abilities (may be placed in an occupied territory, attacks on a 3 for the first round). They should also get an IPC bonus (maybe 3-4) if nearby Russia maintains nearby territories. Goes without saying they can’t occupy the same territories as Nationalist units.

Canada is definitely a no-brainer, I would let them start with what’s on the board and just add a destroyer at SZ1, and they get a 5 IPC bonus if they control all their original territories plus Newfoundland/Labrador.
