From Eastern US straight into SZ106?

Thanks for the confirmation!!!

We were strictly following the setup, rules and NOs from Larry’s thread on A2:
http://harrisgamedesign.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=4167

We didn’t want to make stuff up since the stuff we’d make up would naturally benefit the person coming up with it!

Too many rule differences are confusing and has caused many arguments while playing.  That’s why we decided to stick to rules Larry came up with - OOB, A1 or A2.

@rock`n:

on page 23 there is written:
germany
“5 IPC if Axis powers control either novgorod or volgograd.”

does it mean, that the german player can get up to 10 IPC when controlling both cities?

No.

@rock`n:

United kingdom/United states

“collect a one-time payment of 5 IPCs if the first time UK/USA forces capture or liberate one of the following territories: normandy, holland or western germany.”

does it mean, that UK/USA can gain up to 15 IPCs or maximum 5 IPCs? for me as not a native speaker of english it is not quite clear.
if someone as UK or USA captures holland he gains 5 IPCs. okay, but when the same player occupies normandy next round or in the same round. what is then? etc.

The payment is received only the first time that one of those territories is captured/liberated by each power.  Nothing further is received for capturing or liberating another of the territories.  Each power may earn only 5 IPCs per game from this NO.

beauty, thanks Krieg!

@questioneer:

I can prove it.  If you take a look at the back of your board where the map wraps around the end there is a whole centimeter of map that continues out of the edge.  You can easily see a centimeter long border after Lake Superior ends where ALBERTA HAS A BORDER WITH CENTRAL US.

Technically, ALBERTA BORDERS CENTRAL US.

Wow, I’ve actually stumped Krieghund!!!  Amazing!!!  I deserve a cookie!!!  If this gets overruled its because they know I’m right!!!

:-D

Why a cookie?

They don’t touch.

Ok.

The original Rules Clarifications (copyright 1991 Milton Bradley Company. All Rights Reserves. 4423-X10):

Topic: Miscellaneous
If a country’s I.P.C value goes over 45, place two markers on the board. For exampla, if your I.P.C. value is 48, place one marker at 45 and the other marker at 3.

Don’t panic veteran!

We will survive this version, too. :wink:

Yes definitely this is not only a good idea for US, but for any country with a strong economy.
