Perfect,

I’ll start planning.

We are already 2-5 players who would like to come.

I’ll send you pm when I know more:+1:

We would need to start training with your 1941 game during this spring and summer.

Oh wow that would be super sweet ! Ya let me know.

Here’s the end of turn 6 when the axis conceded.

Here’s pic of the tech and income with the 2 NA each country got to use in game and victory points. Axis down to 150 income. Not good.

Changes to game are a few territory values were moved to other territory values to help Japan get a few more icps.
Also added 12 japan inf to setup. They just still don’t quite have enough on land it seems from last 8 games played. Also Hawaii lost 2 trans and an Art to slow them down a bit. Still seems they get to money islands a bit to fast or a bit to strong on ground.

Still maybe a tweak yet but next game Feb 19 the plan. Did some more map tweaks with borders and added an AB to Tobruk with the CW-30 desert rats. Nice to see movement a bit in desert to help with more of an N Africa campaigns.

How long time does it take for you guys to play 6 rounds?

Depends on how many players we have.
4 players 6 rounds probably 8-9 hours

6 players best. 4 on Europe side and 2 on pacific side. The 7th player would then go to FEC/Anzac. About 9-10 hours for 7-8 rounds.

Putting in damage 1 icons for damaging a convoy box on outside also. Be easier for players to see. This rule has been in game since day 1.
Inside the boxes only count towards starting income. Not outside of boxes. Why it’s a different color.
May change design a bit if I get a better idea.

@general-6-stars I see the Rat Patrol rule was included

Ya used the rules in the post at top of page.
Used the 30 trucks and had just a bit of time to throw on a coat of paint. But will change colors and add guns.

Maybe we could use something really distinct like a flaming marker for convoy box damage so that it is clear and obvious. A lot of times there are so many units on the board you can’t really see the map. Just an idea. The map is so good and has so much on it really don’t want to see it changed.

Ya. Other option is using enemy country tokens too. I do have damage flame markers too.

Cannot buy in game. Once killed there gone.

Can move into and out of the Sahara desert.

Gets a first strike shot if attacking alone or with another desert rat unit and defender is removed with out a return shot.

Gets a first strike shot attacking with other UK units and or Allie units. Defenders choice of casualty with a no return defend shot.

If they miss shot on attack the defender gets a defense shot. If defender misses desert rat, it can retreat to the desert or other territory.

They can only attack the northern territories of Africa. Morocco- Egypt.

They can travel the whole desert and come out and attack any Northern Territory. Traveling across the desert does not count as a move.

They can damage an air base. Roll a d6 for damage.
If the desert rats do a TSA on an airbase with enemy units there,
the enemy units would get a -2 on there defense rolls based on
desert rat speed. If they survive then each rat can do a 1d6 roll for
damage on air base.
So like they can pop out of desert or Egypt into Tobruk and hit
airbase if they survive and then move back into desert or another
land territory.

Cannot control a territory.

Yo’s. “Operation Do Wrong “ this Saturday at 8 am central at the Generals Fortress. Game is dedicated to SS spy Duds ( do wrong ) based on we had to lay him down to rest. He was there always for every game.

Game will be live streamed on Twitch. Type in ssgen69.

Thanks barnee. Trying to get new recruit ready but may not work out. Lol

Ya. I’d call that a few nukes were dropped. This hound is shorter so no need to worry. Table high enough so you can sit in computer chairs and roll under table. More interested in this pic then spying. Traitor ! Lol
