Where can I find a copy of Iron Blitz

Mine still has the $2.99 Goodwill price tag on it. Semi-pristine condition, most of the country markers weren’t punched out of the cardboard yet.

Wouldn’t do it unless you’re a collector. Rules are available online and pieces are available on ebay or HBG. just my opinion

i will do, when i get time.  Life is keeping me very busy.

@ncscswitch:

But again, that is a Revised rule, not Classic.

And Mattylite, just making sure which version you have…  If you have the Milton Bradley Game Masters game from the 1980’s, you have Classic.  If you have the Avalon Hill version (your game board has numbers in the sea zones) then you have Revised, and would want to look in that topic area for answers to any other questions you may have.

I think it was all clear when he mentioned this :D There are no West-Russia or Belorussia in Classic :P

@mattylite:

Or a not-so-abstract example: Say I’m Germany and I have 10 tanks in Belorussia.  USSR has a couple infantry in West Russia.  On my turn, can I:  1.) send three or so tanks to kill those West Russians

boo, way to ruin my fun. I was hinting towards www.the-underdogs.org. They have it.
You like catch 22? my favorite quote is: He had decided to live forever or die in the attempt, and his only mission each time he went up was to come down alive.

After playing both versions, by far the Iron Blitz version is much much better, if not for the simple fact you can basically setup the game in any manner you wish. Just having the marines changes the way you do things in the game, the way you think thing through and whatnot. Plus as a bonus the AI isn’t completely horrid, it still is dumb and can be destroyed rather quickly but isn’t as bad as in just plain A&A.

I just want to point out, that this even aplies if the transport doesn’t have to move. If the British want to use the Russian transport to ship toops to Norway, they have to wait on the boat for one round.

The Japan isn’t the main problem. With a decent size Navy (2 hit BB’s hopefully) after Pearl Habor and maybe a buildup of some supporting ships (a few subs or destroyers), the Japanese can hold WUSA at bay even without blockading. However, it’s the German I’m more worried about only having subs and maybe a carrier to contend with).
