Call of Duty!

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.

Something new coming to Combat Miniatures:

I am on a quest to convert most of my “pushing plastic” games’ maps to a larger roll up format. I have been able to do that with all of my A&A games thanks to this site! Does anyone have a hi-res scan of the History of the World Map? Either the New Avalon hill version or the Z-Man Games reprint is fine.

11. Now it is the Allied turn. The same procedure is followed as before. The defending CAP fighter shoots at the incoming planes, and they get to fire back.

12. The Japanese CAP fighter misses, but the Allied planes shoot it down.

13. Both planes select the same carrier group to go after. The ships miss their AA fire, so the planes are free to attack.

14. Both planes score a hit on the carrier and it is sunk. Planes must now return home.

15. Planes on both sides must land on their carriers. The US plane lost its carrier, and so must ditch at sea (destroyed). Both sides may reshuffle the composition of their groups. At this point, the Japanese player decides if they wish to retreat, and they choose to continue the battle instead. The Allies, however, choose to retreat, The Allied ships return to port and the Japanese fleet continues on its original mission.

there are two rulebooks, right!

@FieldMarshalGames:

Does anyone know of any home made set-ups for this game?

Played it for the 1st time last week-end and it was very fun.

We thought we would try bidding for territories next time.

Exemple: each player has 200 “credit” (total) to bid with.
We draw the 1st territory card, and players can bid for it. when nobody wants to top the last player bid, he got the territory, and so on…
so good bidding strategy is rewarded by better positioning at the beginning of the game, or more territories (ie more cash to spend).

Ok i will Pm you id like to play multyplayer cod2 evenings around 9-1130 Pm PAC. I will Pm you just before and announce exactly which server i play at.

I’ve always found the history of the War card game quite interesting, especially when you compare it to Solitaire. War is one of those classic card games that is so simple yet engaging, much like Solitaire. Both games have been around for ages and have a sort of timeless appeal. War is thought to date back to at least the 19th century, and it is often one of the first card games kids learn because of its simplicity. Solitaire, on the other hand, has a rich history that goes back even further, with origins in Europe in the late 18th century. What I find fascinating about War is that it relies heavily on luck, while solitaire requires a bit more strategy and patience. This makes each game unique in its way. War is straightforward and fast-paced, which is great for quick, casual play. Solitaire can be more relaxing and requires a bit more thought, which can be very satisfying when you finally win. Both games have their charm and offer different kinds of enjoyment. War might not have the depth of solitaire, but it has its own appeal in its simplicity and the way it can quickly decide a winner. I think both games have survived for so long because they are easy to learn and play, making them accessible to everyone, regardless of age or skill level.
