Where Can I Order Game From California?

@SuperbattleshipYamato If germanany does’nt send enough units to 110 and 111,I would consider scrambling.Generally if the number of dice I get to throw is equal or more than my opponents,I will scramble.
Of course that does’nt happen often.

@Gargantua:

USE THE ALPHA 3.9 RULES FOR EUROPE - They are substantially better.

Everything works properly and is covered by Alpha 3.9, with 3 exceptions.

1. France starts with 2 less IPC’s (17?) becuase French-Indo-China is not included
2. Russia gets + 9 IPC’s a turn from it’s eastern territories
3. USA only collects NO’s represented on the European side of the board

Don’t ask me why Krieghund/Larry thinks it’s ok to give Russia + IPC’s from other maps, but not America or France. :p

They’re response so far has been that ‘somehow’ it makes sense.

They get +9 but lose the 2 infrantry bonus each turn comming from novosibirsk so they only gain 3IPC per turn.

It’s for Global, but I don’t think there is a Europe-specific version yet.  You should be able to just ignore the stuff regarding the Pacific.  The 2 ANZAC infantry in Egypt become 1 UK infantry, and the USSR gets 9 extra income from the Soviet Far East.

@dinosaur:

Seven Cities is too easy for Axis and eight is too many.

a ‘city’ too far  :wink:

thanks for your answers guys!

These sound like really neat house rules. If the allies seem to win too many games over here we will probably use them. Potentially turning all of north africa over to the germans.

Tons of fun stuff with the french. Imagine the germans being able to move french soldiers around africa but the french turn back allied first time normany is landed in!

I play a bit of War At Sea as well. Reading the back of the french cards is entertaining. Ships escaping port and german capture with unfinished guns. Ships firing at americans landing in africa.

Heck, am i remembering right that the british landed in madagascar to liberate it from the french? Wasnt the HMS Barham or the Ramilles or some other old battleship there?

@CWO:

@Make_It_Round:

Players: 2 - 5

Well, if France was a playable ally, it should have read:

Players: 2 - 6

Perhaps what they mean is that France, although it’s playable, is controlled by one of the Allied players, in the same way that China in Pacific 1940 gets its own game turn but is controlled by an Allied player.

Agreed, this is only logical. As for game time listed, I’ve always found estimates on wargames are WAY OFF.

France shouldn’t be allowed to do anything. That would be realistic.

@questioneer:

No, Larry confirmed it will come with the Europe game- NOs Tech and all in June 2010.

Where can we get that confirmation.

I think that Questioneer is referring to comments made by Larry on his site.

I will confirm it as being the plan last I talked with him.  Now that doesn’t mean that WotC won’t screw it up by doing something else, but even that doesn’t seem likely. :roll:

I beginnig to believe they can screw anything up.
