A Classic Spring 1942 timelapse video

@Death_FromAbove When you say “meet me” what does that entail exactly? I play by forum for the most part so is that what you mean? Or are you thinking of playing live?

My preference is the following: 2nd edition rules, no bid, RR, no IC (all rules from the OoB rules)
+strict neutrals (as mentioned in my YouTube video)

I haven’t played 3rd edition since the computer game came out. In my opinion that would be quite a different game than what I’m familiar with. If you insist though, I’ll play a Utah with you if you play my pref above?

Im looking for an experienced classic opponent, any variant will be fine.

IRL on triplea or pbem.

I’m just curious what the community thinks.

I’ve been looking for ways to speed up games. Most people don’t have the time or interest for holding a marathon. This seems to be a way to get a game of Classic settled quickly.

Mobilty has a bigger impact on a board with fewer spaces. It gets you to capitals more quickly. That’s a bonus for the Axis to use against Stalin. The Allies can overcome the Luftwaffe faster by buying cruisers and destroyers. Then they knock on Hitler’s door faster.
Here is a pic of the beginning of turn 7. That’s where it will stay while I go adult. I’ll mess with it more when I’m done adulting.

thank you Krieghund,

once again you have answered my rules questions within a day of posting them.  you are awesome!

If anyone is still interested in playing these, we’ve been setting up a site for PBEM play (through TripleA) for finding opponents and rating games.  If you usually play here, no need to change anything, just post that you are playing and would like your game rated in the Opponent’s Wanted Forum.  A full explanation of each rules set is also available:

I would be more than willing to play anyone any of these variations via TripleA, especially 2nd Edition, Omaha (3rd edition) and Utah (3rd edition Russia Restricted) – PM me if you are interested in playing!

Easy and it is what I did immediately upon seeing the ABORTION of a map that A&A had at the time. Make the boundaries of these 4 places realistic……

Have the Caucasus be the actual mountainous area plus the southern plains to the immediate north only. Have Ukraine  directly border Caucasus, Moscow & Eastern Europe (& Balkans) Have Eastern Europe border Ukraine, Russia, Karelia (& Southern Europe & Germany) Have Karelia border Eastern Europe, Russia & Khanty-Mansi (as it should)
‘Easy - peasey’.
That original map was a giant turd! One of the worst, if not the worst, map produced for a very popular game. The game is great - that map crap.

Yard sale.  eBay attempted to plunder my bank account when someone claimed they didnt get a package I shipped, even though I had the tracking information proving it arrived at his registered address.  Luckily, I had closed the account, so now I have the cash, but can’t use ebay or paypal.
