Dragoon happens off board. Starting on turn 8, allies roll to see if the units from Dragoon show up in designated spaces on the bottom of the map coming up from southern France. Chance of success increases every turn until the roll is successful. These units are placed from the US and French forcepools. If playing with event cards, there is a chance that Dragoon fails and no units show up at all.
SQUARES

I thought a sample match of SQUARES would help answer some of the questions posed in the other thread (http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=11897.0). If one of the mods would prefer not to have it here, just let me know where it goes!

Okay, I’m ready although I’ll probably be demonstrating what not to do :lol:

I haven’t played SQUARES in years either, so no worries.
I’ll take the North (1st player) on Odds, and the South on Evens

I seem to recall I used to have more of a plan when I played this in the past…though I guess its early, and it certainly was always the case that the first 10 turns as the units advance into the field always felt slow. Once enemy contact is made, that’s when it gets tense!

Agreed, it’s like a lot of battle games - both abstract and wargame types - first there’s a developing period, then the action!
