AARHE Historical Map

IL, Could you also mail me the player aids? (after adjustments)  Thanks!  :wink:

they are on BGG. on PDF. BGG= board game geek.com

Are you making imrpovements to the player aids or we leaving that aside for now?

Ill get around to that. besides its minor stuff.

Yeah actually we should be focusing all efforts on playtesting phase 2.
Quite a few new ideas, duno how they would go together.

I have playtested all of the parts seperately. On that basis they work well.

Yeah just need to see if any dramas when all used together.

As for the optional rules, for me the important is the destinction between FTR (fighter) and NAV (naval fighter).

The naval fighter goes along with the idea of cheaper naval units so that the carriers will not be out of place because all the other catagories went down in price and the carrier didnt. The cheaper fighters reflects maintaining distinct air capabilities that dont include expensive 10 IPC planes.

there is a strange side effect with snowy and mountainous terrain

we wanted to make it harder to fight
so we made it
*tanks can’t blitz
*land units’ fight with -1 modifier, but not reducing below 1

now it made it harder to defend those terrain !
since both attacking and defending INF fights at 1 now

how to fix this?

well terrain only should be helping the defense. thats all. I think you made a typo on the rules because thats how i allways played it. I dont remember any idea that terrain would aid the attacker.

oh I see

crap
I just realise the phase 2 map has missing VCs (phase 3 ok)

and I’ve printed the map too :cry:

huh?  whats missing. both maps have the VC’s

phase 2 missing…

Germany

Warsaw - Eastern Europe
Bucharest - Balkans

UK

Toronto - Eastern Canada

oh yeah when you add missing VCs to phase 2
would nice if there are in the same place as phase 3
a small touch
so far I think the VCs are in the small place where possible

duno how you make the two maps though
template or shared resource between the two maps?

ok thats sorted now

by the way I can see the old compass from the OOB map sometimes

is that actually in there but behind the the other layers?

It may be what i used to trace but im not sure. In any case it wont print that junk.

By the way can you make a technology chart too :lol:

Also can you send me illustrator files of the player aids too.
You can send illustrator files instead of jpeg from now on.

OK coming up.

By the way a photo of my enlarged A0 (16 A4’s) map.
