If newbies are playing their first game…

thanks to all

@DarthMaximus:

Well your trying something may effect my trying something such that I may have to try something different depending on what you are trying.  Unless what you are trying doesn’t effect what I was going to try so then I will be safe to try whatever I want.  :-D

Do, or Do not.  There is no try.

@ncscswitch:

…I DO like those VT’s that Craig posted though.  I may give those SERIOUS thought for our next Tournament.

You are a man of wisdom! :wink:

I am glad that someone has seen the light. :-D

Although I sort of like Craig Yoper’s territory idea, I would like it a d*** sight more if it were officially recognized and accepted by Avalon Hill as the tournament standard.

Actually, I would like ANYTHING to be accepted by Avalon Hill as the tournament standard.

As it is, there are different tournaments, but no OFFICIAL tournament standard.  LHTR is close, but it is not the Official Deal.

WOTC/AH pays for Greg’s FTF tournaments at Origins/GCI. They consulted Larry on “tournament” rules specifically for this purpose. I’d say this makes LHTR the prominent ruleset.

Look here for the best FTF tournaments in the country…

We’re using a different Luftwaffe I found on these boards somewhere…bonus to each tank accompanied by a fighter…both attack on a four during the first round of combat.

So three tanks and three fighters is six fours in the first round…bad part is that it doesn’t work against ships.

But that game is over…all three Allies got Rockets, and Germany was being hit by six Rockets each turn…effectively no income. Japan’s southern force through Persia was hit 1-2-3 by Britain, America and Russia…India was likely to fall on Britains next turn…and Japan no longer had enough to break through on the other two avenues of attack…we just conceeded rather than wait for America and Britain to get their act together and take Berlin.

G1 Sea Lion is one of the major reasons why Larry Harris Tournament Rules are used rather than the box rules.

Leet is just short form of elite.

when you open battlemap, right click on the mouseholding it down and move to the right, when you do this, the map will move and show the western half of the gameboard……any other questions you may have can be answered in a more timely fashion in you post in the games section under the heading 1 on 1 help with pbem,…pbem means play by e-mail

If things are going to hard for one party…
try restarting the game :-)

If you’ve made one mistake early in the game, it’s possible you will see the devastating effect of the mistake you made some turns later…
here you can see it already:
apparently, your allies did not work as ONE team…
I believe that’s the first and best strategy to keep in mind!

Otherwise, I can only recommend reading soime topics at the forum :-)
