Hello all!
So I found some weather tokens/pieces on HBG and I love the idea of incorporating weather into the whole mix.  After some deliberation the only fair and simple way I can think to do this is to do it via cards at the end of a round (affecting the next round; shuffled and drawn randomly, one from each deck).  The pieces I ordered consist of: Snow, Clouds, Fog, Rain, Heat (looks like sunshine, lol) and can be easily placed on the board.  I figure you could print the territory or sea zone on one side of a card and a color code on the other - corresponding to the territory that weather system would affect.  So essentially you have 5 decks of cards - the simple way being to just take out the ones from each deck that don’t apply to that type of weather (i.e. snow in the Congo).  These weather systems have simple application - to impede movement or degrade attack and defense.

Thoughts?

Hey all,

I just wanted to say that:

1. Where has this page been all my life (since I was like 7 and snuck my brother’s 1984 game out of his room at night). And
2. Holy Crap there are some AMAZING customizations and ideas on this page.

This is awesome!
