Outstanding work Minor Threat!!

Fantastic job!  Thank you!

I think the new changes are great– just wish I could print off the Alpha +3(whatever version) and be done.  Seems like it would notify everybody at the same time.  Right now the official proclamtion that these new changes are final are buried in a post somewhere.

So the New Russian NO say each original German, Italian, and Pro-Axis.  Does that include the Italian Territories in Africa, and the ones with no IPC.  Hmmmm Originally this NO was just Europe centric–- did it just expand?

Okay, so we need clarification on the Russian NO related to the +3 for each Axis or neutral territory captured in Europe, including Turkey.  Our group thinks this means Continental Europe (including Sweden, Finland).  However, in the rules when the say Europe in some sections they mean the whole Europe map.  Or put another way–- what territories really count for the +3.  Besides the obvious ones like Poland, Rommania-- is it also the crazy possibilites likes Portugal, Spain, Sweden and Eire?  What about Northwest Persia and Persia that are on the “Europe” map?  Does Larry or Krieghund have a definitive list?

Sorry I did not follow proper journalism protocol Calvinhobbes.  I guess I will forward all emails to you for your perusal.  C’mon

I think we all agree that changes through playtesting are good.  My point is enough is enough.  I think Larry has at least 10,000 posts from people with their point and counterpoints.  We can’t seriously need more input.  Larry–pick a final setup and lets go.  My frustration, and I think others based on some feedback here, is that this game seems to change every two weeks.  Not only is that inefficient, and perplexing to the casual A&A player-- but it makes the product currently put out seem like a pre-production model.

Larry has designed a great game- but to play it now you have to ask someone “what setup are we playing”.  All I am saying is that the time for a decison is here.

The continuous “we need to balance the game discussions” has worn me down.  To paraphrase Winston Churchill– “Never was more said by a few and read by so many”.  I am going to just play the game, and have fun with my friends in our group.  Maybe we should all try that in 2011.  When Larry publishes an OFFICIAL rules change I will adopt it.  But the incessant lobbying for new setups based on your own game play preferences is just crazy.  I guess when all of you “Larry Lobbyists” win every game every time then in your mind the game is perfectly balanced.  Imagine if the creators of Monoploy had to put up with this-- we would be on Zeta #45 setup.

Raise a glass to one of the greatest games every made!

Thank God for the AA Gun rule change.  That drove me nuts!!!  Nobody would abandon a fully functional gun as  gift for the enemy.  Occasionaly I will buy an extra AA gun to move to the front- especally if an opponent goes Lufftwaffe crazy on me.  Thank you Larry!

Excellent video!  I thought I was listening to one of those old Time/Life Books documentary.

Great work!
