1914 Gen Con Rules

@Wittmann Thanks!

@Krieghund said in Latest Tournament Rules?:

I have created a new topic with a file containing the rules. Could someone please “sticky” it? Thanks.

Done, thanks a lot!

Thanks  :-)

That might make sense.  Either that, or have contesting the capital as a precondition to checking for them.  However, in all three cases, the situation was caused by sneaky moves of troops to places just big enough to cause them to be contested, which is why I suggested giving the country the entirety of its turn to try to correct the situation (like in WWII games of A&A when a capital is captured).  As it was, we sent armies on suicide missions right before the turn of the country in question just to trigger the collapse, even though the moves would otherwise NEVER have been made (like sacrificing a considerable army just to have 1-2 units survive, thereby contesting a territory).

Hey guys,

Did anyone play in the Tournament at Gen Con last year?

Keen for feedback on the tournament rules?

How many rounds on average a game lasted?

What was the average bid and who did the bid go to?

Looking at purchasing this version but doing my home work first so any information will be quite helpful as my play group is time poor and games with set time limits work in nicely.

Thanks heaps!

I like the diddy dice. But there needs to be more of them, and in 4 different colours.

Thats them. just add Lazers and roundels.

@Flashman:

Germany did a lot of trade with adjacent neutrals, especially the Netherlands and Sweden, so maybe Germany gets a certain ammount of IPCs from these without having to invade.Â

That will be interesting. It seems like a Norway-Denmark NO-type rule would be good, except supposedly the game was said not to be complex enough for NO’s. Maybe to avoid confusion one of the German seaside territories will have a larger than expected income. I’m not sure if the Unrestricted Submarine Warfare phase will be for more than just Germany, but if it were, then the allies could take out the “convoy” between Scandinavia and Germany.
