Lets Talk Partisans!

:-P dude, i did it twice  :-P

Actually, Upside-down_Turtle comes from my early Star Craft days.  Basically, in a 3v2 game, I’d be the odd man out as Terran and essentially be a non factor.  I’d maybe get off an expand or two, but eventually “turtle up” and suck all my minerals dry.  Then I basically pray my buddies won the huge battle I had no part in.  Otherwise, I was easy pickings.

Best run I had was as the zerg.  Captured, like, ten minneral fields in the middle of the map.  Problem was, no one could attack anyone else unless they went through me.  It was like a giant Hydralisk meat grinder.    :-P They kicked me out eventually, but it was a good run.  8-)

Oh yeah, and I almost killed someone with a Zelot rush  :-D

That settles it, I’m Googling Star Craft II videos…

Here’s our WAW rules.

Mechanized infantry=

Move 2 (units can retreat after one round of combat).
att = 2
def= 2
Cost = 4

(Japan,france and China cannot produce mechanized infantry).

@Upside-down_Turtle:

Rocket Tech now has two levels: V1 and V2.  Rolling Rockets gets you V1s.  A second roll on rockets get you V2s.

V1 costs 1 IPC, has a range of two, and does damage = 1d6 halved.  Radar makes a country immune to V1s.
*If you think this makes Radar too powerful, AA roles 1 die against each V1.  A role of 1 fails to shoot it down
**If you think the above rule allows too many V1s to hit, use a d10 or d12 for more realistic statistics.

V2 costs 2 IPCs, has a range of 3, and does damage = 1d6.  Theses rockets are unstoppable.  May carry an Atomic Bomb.
*If you think that is too powerful, make a V3 level for nukes.

these are good rules, i think AA guns and and fighters should be able to intercept them like regular aircraft though. i was able to shoot down a V1 buzz bomb in a WW2 flight simulator game.

I think the V2 rule are good to, although i dont think they were as effective a stratigic attacks as a whole bomber group. Maybe half their damage and keep them costing 1.

I like the idea of V3 and maybe even V4 rockets that can launch nukes even long distance

@Imperious:

slippery slope will follow that kind of rule. it should be one and if you do with 2-3 or even 4 it turns into WW3 ICBM game. Thats not really AA. It could be fun once, but a trick to be exploited. In all house rules you have to get away with the idea of allowing players to buy tons of items that can break a game. This would be the case with the old discussion on paratroopers and that “buck Rodgers exploit”.

I willl try to play a game soon with my a-bomb rules( which is really yours) , and tell you how it goes

enough space, but not enough money from WOTC to develop both.

yes sir.

Actually, it refers to the type of bathing suit worn by the girls painted on the plane.

What are we considering as SPA, becasue if you include tank destoyers i would say they should be good on the defensive, but if you are including rocket artillery they would be good on the offensive.

What if you didn’t have SPA, just a tank destoyer unita and a rocket artillery unit
