British Blockade: What Happened?

@DoManMacgee

Agreed.

Has anyone found proper colors to use for custom units for 1914 for each power ? I’ve had no luck finding anything so I try to color match to the best of my abilities but if there was RGB or CMYK info out there it would be awesome for modders.

@SuperbattleshipYamato It cannot.

@Mutu98 said in 1914 contested territory multiple countries combat question:

Which units will fight on germany side?
Just the german 6 inf 2 art and 1 plane or the combined 11 inf 4 art and 2 planes?

Only the German units attack. See page 22 of the rulebook.

Does it matter who controled the contested territory prior to contention?

No.

@SuperbattleshipYamato You’re on. And no offense taken. I look forward to being handed a solid walloping.

I have not played a second game, but my first went like yours.
Is good to know the second is better for the CPs, with a different opening move.
Do say if you get that victory, thank you.

The one exception I might make to colonial builds being infantry only would be that Canada can build one transport. This would count as 2 towards the colonial maximum of 3 for that turn.
Perhaps, though, that must mean bringing Canada into the “even builds” rule; so that if the UK wants to build more than 4 infantry on a turn one of them must be in Canada.
It seems a fair way of representing British dependency on Trans-Atlantic shipping.

@Flashman:

No allied surface vessels (other than Russia) may enter the Baltic.

I do not like arbitrary rules such as this. The Germans should have to do something to prevent Allied ships moving into the Baltic. If the game is correctly balanced, they should have the means to do this. However, if the German player chooses to, for example, use the fleet to support an invasion of Russia, then the Allies might be strong enough to force the Skagerrak.

I agree. The more you base rules on what happened instead of what could have reasonably happened, the more you are acting out the same old tired thing every game.
