@superbattleshipyamato said in A&A: The Blockgame? (Axis and Allies Eurotrash Variant):
I don’t get that last part though. So tipping them down shows the unit and the number of units is shown on the side facing the opponent?
Yup
U mean this monday? The 7th or the 14th?
hey reloader wat did u use for your version of the map? it looks like Paint
the 14th
awwwww :cry:. That makes me sad. all well the loger it takes the better it will be. Good Luck Spartan. I cant wait for Winter War
About one week until Greece rules!
I love how were all stoked about this game. Hey nice pic Sun Tzu. I need one now.
posting so I get notified for new posts.
Hey spartan any work on the initial set up and also it would be possible to make the map into a battlemap mod. If you want this pm me and I will start work on it (it will be slow because of my own AAX project and online games).
whats a battlemap mod
battlemap is the program used to play axis and allies through the forum. A mod is the module. So if I created a battlemap mod we could play via the internet uploading the maps and using the forum dicey.
How do you get this program?
Sorry got slammed with homework this weekend and could not finish rules and set up :cry: :oops:, should be done in a week or two though :-)
I am creating battlemap mod as we speak and once the initial set up has come out I will finish it off.
Quick Question are Yugoslavia and Turkey neutral and will they be able to move or will they just have initial units and play no further part except as a distraction???

Historically, Turkey was neutral and Yugoslavia was invaded around the same time as Greece was.
He’s incorporating Yugosalvia (Operation Husky) into the game. Idk about turkey but it was neutral throught the majority of the war.
Husky was the invasion of Sicily. The invasion of Yugoslavia was called Operation 25 (also known in some sources as Operation Retribution or Operation Punishment).
Huh? I thought Spartan said it was Yugoslavia. Maybe I didnt read it right. Your our local WWII History Expert though CWO so I guess your right :-D

In terms of the game I was meaning(I know that historically that Turkey was neutral and Yugo was captured.)
I hope Yugo has troops. Turkey would be cool as like a extra objective for the axis.

Turkey’s two main values to Germany (if Germany was willing to ignore Turkey’s neutrality and was able to mount an effective armoured attack across its difficult terrain) would have been:
To provide the route for delivering the right hook of a pincer attack against Egypt and the Suez Canal, with Rommel’s forces west of Egypt providing the left hook.
To allow Germany (once Britain had been knocked out of Egypt) to drive into Iraq and Iran in order to seize their valuable oil fields.
John Keegan explores this scenario in one of the chapters in the book “What If?: The World’s Foremost Military Historians Imagine What Might Have Been”, edited by Robert Cowley.
If ever the Express game series ever branches out into the realm of hypothetical WWII scenarios, that might be an interesting one to explore.
