Balancing the 42.2 game without the need for Bids

  • '22 '21

    Since I really Hate Bids with a Passion, I propose to move existing units around some just to balance the game!
    GERMANY: Move Norway fighter to Baltic St, move NW Europe fighter to Germany- this will Dumb down the Attack in sz 7!
    UK: Move W Canada+New Zealand Infantries to India, move S Africa Infantry to Egypt, move sz 14 Cruiser to sz 10- this would beef up their Defense in those New positions!
    US: Move Central US+Midway Infantries to Sinkiang, move sz 19 Cruiser to sz 11- since those units are useless in the beginning setup, they would make China+Eastern US coast more defenseable!
    Me thinks it could be an improvement on the Larry Harris alternative setup IMHO, gracious thoughts if you please!(I edited out moving the German Subs)!
