exactly, it just makes it that much easier for the allies to win. russia dosent have to worry about japan for awhile, so they can use even more of their troops in germnay.

RE: Fortress America, Conquest Of The Empire, and Shogun
is that IMP WW1 game done yet? or has it been done? do any of you know where you could buy it if it is out? i saw this 1 pic of it and it looks pretty fun.
yanny, have you played any of the expansions for settlers? i have the seafarers one, and that adds a new twist of islands that you can build boats to get to.

RE: German navy T1
i’ve seen amphibious assualts on karelia on german turn 1, but it almost never works, plus you lose the cannon fodder

RE: Quick question
i’d say best beaches on east coast as far south as VA beach, cuz maryland/delaware beaches are awful (only beacuse they aren’t in VA) :P

RE: Scenario Editor
there are a few kinda stupid scenarios that they give you, notably the 2 where russia is neutral(stupidest game i’ve ever played) and the one where US is neutral(which sounds really hard for the allies, but they give russia like 3 more fighters and they give britain like 3 aircraft carriers so the allies win anyway.) i don’t really like the PC game, beacuse the AI is so incredibly retarded, they lose EVERY game, even on the hardest setting. i wish hasbro would come out w/ a new version, w/ better AI and maybe some better scenarios

RE: No attack between Russia and Japan
it DEFINTIELY helps the allies. just about the only way for the axis to win is to hold africa and have germany stay strong on defense and maybe attack russia a little, and then have japan mop up asia( and eventually moscow ) and go for the IPC victory. that would defienitely tilt the scales WAY towards the allies; the game would be over before it even started.

RE: Scenario Editor
are you sure? go into the options menu, then down in the lower corner is a button that says"map editor" maybe it just isn’t there, or maybe you just missed it. that’s what happened to me when i first got it

RE: Quick question
have you been down to the avalon/stone harbor area of NJ? i went there last summer and it was a pretty nice beach. (water was a bit cold) i think it’s down at he very southern tip but i’m not sure.

RE: German navy T1
i usually use it as cannon fodder for the planes in the north sea attack, but i’m sure the more experienced players have better strategies. once i had this CRAZY idea w/ russian navy that i’ve never heard anyone talk about. on the first turn i put 2 men from karelia on the transport and invaded morroco. it’s a 2 on 1 infantry battle there, so it’s pretty close. theres also the chance that the german sub kills your sub, so then you have to retreat w/ the men to england. it also takes 2 men away from karelia, but i usually don’t find that as a problem beacuse i still have 17 men there at the end of the turn(4 from russia, 4 from caucasus, and buying 8 more ) along w/ the 2 fighters and tanks.

RE: In our game Germany ALWAYS wins- help us
there’s only one problem. in my games, germany ALWAYS takes leningrad on turn3, to stop russia from landing planes there. there is almost no way the russians can stop germany from taking it on turn 3, so that only allows you to get the 2 fighters from england in and then back out in time before germany takes it. the fighters HAVE to be in the space where they landed for a full turn, so anything that gets there after allied turn 1 will be killed there on turn 3. in my games, russia usually has 4 fighters and 3 bombers by the end of the game, the 2 english ones, the 1 from malta(after clearing up africa you fly it to iran and then to moscow, but this is usually just about at the end of the gane, turn 5 or 6) and the 2 allied bombers.

RE: Fortress America, Conquest Of The Empire, and Shogun
i have that britannia game, but i’ve never played it (it’s actually my bro’s and he used to play it alot) is it as good as A&A or diplomacy or settlers of catan?

RE: Ppl refusing to balance the game
it’s a pretty good beginner strategy, but i think it’s more useful(IPC efficient) to ship men over to the mainland in transports

RE: Ppl refusing to balance the game
i used to build IC’s in manchuria or kwantung all the time as japan. it’s pretty helpful, but the 15 IPC’s is a steep price early in the game

RE: Quick question
colin mochrie is pretty funny, but he’s nowhere as funny as Chevy Chase, Bill Murray, Chris Farley, or Ben Stiller(isn’t he american?)two of the funniest movies i’ve ever seen are bottle rocket and the royal tennenbaums, both w/ luke and owen wilson, and monty python and the quest for the holy grail is really funny too (i think he’s british though)

RE: What Other Strategy Board Games Do You Recommend???
i know you said u didnt want a WW1 or 2 game, but diplomacy is a very fun board game. it takes place in 1900 (so its not really WW1) and it has 7 european powers and there are no set alliances. you can make alliances, backstab, and the best part is that there are no dice. it’s like a game of free for all chess for 7 people
