I don’t remember the sz, but, the BB that starts with the FEC navy, is that British or Fec? Doesn’t really make a difference, but since the FEC cannot produce BB at the start, the question came up.
Vichy is a must in my opinion, even if you get the worse case situation and get nothing. Southern France being Vichy blocks Italy from being conquered through France. This is a good reason why you may not want to take Switzerland as the Axis.
I believe it for the gamesmanship. It makes Greece a little more of a fight. One legitamate territory is now split into three destinct territories. Exagerating the canal into a full blown body of water makes the British or Italians produce or keep transports just to get to Corinth instead of just walking in. Hightens the challenge. The map is not exactly geographically accurate in a couple of places but it adds to the playability of the game. Look at North Africa. In Global 39 the Sahara desert is reduced in comparison to Europe 1940 in order to add more French territories to fight over.
i like the convoy zone optional rule, however i believe there should be a qualification that the axis still only gain the income on an actual roll of a 1. this would represent the fact that subs can’t steal cargo, their sole goal was to destroy merchant ships not seize them.
I think if Denmark is neutral then the straights should be open to any country. Germany should take Denmark to keep the UK fleet from entering….I will add this in my 6.1 rules coming out this weekend.
Thanks guys for answering all the questions for Wild Bill. From what I read you guys are correct on all fronts! I’ve not been able to get on the forum as much as I use too but hopefully that will change. I am glad you guys love the game!
