Yes 2 tanks might not be enough…I find it is important for Russia to have some tanks as well so when necessary, it can run to India for temporary support. Just UK and US planes alone are not enough to support India at first few rounds.
Add another destroyer for the States in sea zone 11. I believe that should bring it close to balanced. This will allow the 2 transports to survive putting a lot more pressure on Germany earlier in the game.
Actually, I have come to reverse my previous position on the aesthetics of the map. It’s not that bad. Just a few things stood out to me initially, like mongolia, or saudia arabia’s nipple.
But I got a refresher of an old pic from an ex (MB and even Revised). And I’m quite happy with this new picece of tail.
Agreed. My game Europe at War I decided to use the same stule of colouring for ease of use. The original is the most player friendly. (Battle of the Bulge - even though I like it - is the most player unfriendly map I have seen from them)
Bulge isn’t very aesthetical but I think that is due to more to the hex system, still it could use some colour but then again the battle was fought in the middle of winter…
But Spring 1942 1st Edition has the worst board of the games I own. Size, everything seems to be crammed into it (IPC chart) and the borders in Europe aren’t very clear.
