No the rules we played under are flawed and need to be reviewed. Gamerman made notes and these notes need to be implemented before we start a new game. Also if you are going to take a win, then we continue playing. Bring up Japan. I will tear you to shreds.
Fine with me. �I just can’t tell the intent of what you’re writing sometimes. �And the reason I suggested to play by the same rules was for the fairness aspect, since the current rules appear to disadvantage the Allies.

OK, I have an idea for the rules changes
I will highlight all changes to the document from the ruleset you played game one with, in yellow. So you can just look for the yellow highlight to see the changes.
I’m done updating the document, so you can review it whenever you want.
Whenever you are going to start game 2, please be sure to review the yellow highlighted items. Everything else is the same. Don’t hesitate to let me know if you have concerns. I’m very happy you guys are planning to play another game, with tweaks.
One minor change that you might consider - Perhaps Korea could be a VC rather than Manchuria? It’s generally traded with the Allies more often, so it would be more interesting.

Fine with me. �I just can’t tell the intent of what you’re writing sometimes. �And the reason I suggested to play by the same rules was for the fairness aspect, since the current rules appear to disadvantage the Allies.
So let me get this straight. You admit the allies are at a disadvantage during the current rules (which is true afaik and which is why I wanted to start a new game under updated rules), but you still wanted to claim a win :P? It is like testing for the formula 1, ending first and then saying won the championship.
Also, this allows Japan to win the game without going more than one space away from Mainland Asia, which seems wrong. Maybe take out Sumatra as a VC and add NZ, as Noz mentioned before?
@Shin:

Korea is easier to defend tho if Japan really wants to hold out near the main island, then it is really easy to defend.

NZ is a better VC t.b.h.

It’s still a game, isn’t it? �What are we playing for, if not to win? �The fact that I won playing the Axis is perhaps an indication that the Axis is too strong here, I’ll admit. �Saying I won the game does not mean I’m saying I’m a better player - Hell, I freely admit you’re better than me - it just means that I will, after Germany’s next turn, hold 8 VCs in the European side of the board, and thus win this game.
And all that means is “Hey, Shin Ji won that game and it seemed a bit cheesy/odd. �Let’s review the rules and go again.”

How many hits 0, 1 or 2?
Sigh. 0. ANd you shot down two with your AA.
1 hit on the second round. Man, what a waste. :lol:

Well go for 1 infantry. I need to save my AA for your German airforce. They need more targets.
