My 3rd playtest Turns 1-8 review

@The_Good_Captain

Thank you so much!

I agree. Larry isn’t trying to send us a message, this just wasn’t playtested enough. No way was the outcome of WW1 inevitable. Either side could have won the whole time.

@Razor:

Austria cant afford to lose Albania, but can USA afford the extra trannies it takes to contest Albania rather than shucking units to France ?

It would take the same number of transports.  France and Albania are both two movements away from the US.  Shucking to Albania puts US troops within 2 moves of 2 different CP capitols.

I guess russia forgot that he should not let the enemy get in between him and his capital

Here’s an idea Shakespeare; stop stealing the Admin’s show and actually ASK him if you can post such information.

You know, he runs this site, puts in the effort to show us everything, and then someone comes along and spoils his work. Not very nice.

TVW, also dealing with a similar issue on another forum.

Yeah I know your map was updated, but that PDF version was easiest to print

I once had an idea for a version where hit points were equivalent to firepower, so:

Battleship 4-4-2 (4 hp)
Cruiser 3-3-3 (3 hp)
Destroyers 2-2-2 (2 hp)

Each ships would have the appropriate number of gun turrets, which can be removed when a hit is taken to indicate damage and reduced firepower.

Two hits slows down a BB, one a destroyer.

@Shakespeare:

Exactly how did the convoy rules work in Axis Allies Europe?

Weren’t there convoy boxes all over the North Atlantic?

Couldn’t we apply them here?

There were “Convoy territories” for lack of a better term that could be denied by German Subs that went through them.
