Revised Diceys

Omg thank you so much!!! I will definitely donate, thank you! @Midnight_Reaper !

Did you try doing a closed auctions search on Ebay?

For the most part though the folks who end up with those things in the first place are ones who’d keep them. As opposed to a lot of the other types of convention exclusive items that will end up in the hands of resellers in the first place.

Y’ like that? Here’s another I just printed for a customer…

I’m betting your going to all recognise this one…

The map from the other thread that people are are going on about…

The detail turned out pretty well considering this was from a bit image as opposed to a vector image.

36 x 75 inches.

So, how does one play on this map? How are the rules different and how is it initially setup? And, what are these convoy boxes? I’m completly out of the loop on this thing.

Is the guy that created this still around?

Wait a sec. I can’t make an image show up here?

@Perry:

Thanks!
A few more Q:s though, regarding FTF Tournament formats…

You usually play in teams consisting of 2 persons? And if the team loses, both people are eliminated from the Tournament? I thought five persons played the game, and only

What if no side has lost the game after 4 hours?? (should be fairly common)

What the h**l does Single Elimination stand for ?    :?    (English is not my native tongue)

As an example, AAR starts at 8:00 a.m. By 10 pm you are burned out. And you may still be playing. This is why 2 team members are needed. You will be at a disadvantage playing solo.

Yes, it is one loss oan out at Gen Con Indy. Swiss at WBC, which means you will play 3 games.

After 4 hours, you add IPC totals + VC points, and that causes a winner.

Everyone experiences something different.

Guess the point is, find a dicey you like and stick to it.  I personally hate DAAK.  It’s the most flawed dicey program I’ve ever encountered, when applied to massive dice rolls.  For minutia rolls it seems to do okay at times.  (Like if you want to find the result for 1 infantry, 1 artillery vs 1 infantry, you’ll win about 70% of the time.)  but it’s those massive battles that seem to go horribly wrong for me or my opponent on DAAK that scare me from using them.  Almost always it results in 33% accuracy with attacking infantry vs 40% accuracy with defending infantry.

So yea.  Use whatever system you want.  I like FROOD and Flames of Europe.  But DAAK’s the most popular on here.  (Maybe that’s why I massively harder time winning games from AA.org opponents on DAAK then I do on any other dicey?  The tactics are almost identical, only the dicey is different, yet the DAAK dicey always throws the battle to the attacker, not the defender.  And I’m a very defensive player, usually.  I’d rather force you to attack me, then move out to attack you (other then for territory trading) if I can.)

I think it is a perfect match to let the Germans have Jagd Panzers (Tank Destroyers) to counter the Russian Assault Gun advantage, not vice versa since now the Russian player control the game! When I say “control the game”, I mean that the Russian player can choose when and were the German Jagd Panzer advantage will come in to play! The attacker always has the initiative! But at the same time the German player may safe his advance against counter-attacks on his way into Russia!
