Hitler had no understanding of the economic power of the Soviets. They outproduced the Germans many times over. In fact when Hitler realized how much the Soviets could and would produce he said to paraphrase “I would never have attacked them”.

By the time D-Day rolled around the war was already over (excluding some miracle weapon). WW 2 was really a battle between Germany and the Soviets. Had Hitler been able to knock out the Soviets quickly he would have won WW 2. Had he forced a Soviet collapse in 1941 which by the way he did have a real chance of doing WW2 would have ended then and there. The Germans would have been able to redeploy their forces against the Brits and wipr them out in Africa as well as the Middle East as well as join up with their Japanese allies. Had this happened the combined forces of the western allies would have no prayer of defeating the Axis. After Hitler attacked the Soviets (June 22, 1941) a minimum of 60% of German strength was devoted to fighting in the east. Had even half those forces been avaible to fight in the west it is obvious that at best the western allies could have hoped for was a truce to avoid outright defeat. As Hitler never wanted to fight the western allies this is probably have been the end of the war.

HI, i just purchased this game because it looked fun….and challenging, and by the way the rule book isn’t really clear.
I do have several questsions as i am new to the game…

1. can air units be attacked by ground units and if so which ones can attack them…(excluding anti aircraft guns, i get how those work).

2. how does the ipcs system work, in each round does the icp reset itself, to 40 or 30 or whatever amount of territories one may have. or does it add up to the next round…it would seem to make more sense of a reset system, but i could be wrong…very wrong, in other words gently correct my errors.

3. Someone for the love of god explain how combat works… for example if I attack with say a soldier, do i have to roll anything lower than its current attack rating to do damage, and if so how do i apply damage, i get that they the opponenet choose which ones get the **** fan. but is their health their defense rating? how do these people die?

4. and why does Russia have 24 ipcs, is it because they get to go first? it seems unfair… …and is there a way for everyone to go 1v1v1v1v1?

sorry for the trouble, but otherwise, that’s why i’m looking for i hope to get some answers because i want to play this game, it does look really fun.

Fantasy football is played online.  A “league” is formed, usually having 10-12 teams (players).  There is a draft, where each team drafts players from the NFL to be on their team for each position.  In my league we must draft 1 quarterback, 2 running backs, 2 wide recievers, 1 tight end, 1 kicker and 1 defense.  And 4 extra players for any position.  Some leagues differ, making you draft coaches or specific defensive positions.  During the NFL season, the players that you drafted get points earned or deducted depending on what they do in real life games.  They usually get points for yards and touchdowns.  Lose points for turnovers.  If your defense causes a turnover, then you get points for those as well.  The points that all of your team has earned are tallied up against whichever fantasy team you are playing that week, deciding a winner.  Hope that info helped!
