I wonder if there any WiF gamers in Melbourne Australia who might be interested in joining a game of DoD + WiF which has already begun? We are using some...
To all Wargamers, Today is the deadline to submit a game to run and get a free badge for entry. The priority right now is. 1.GMT Combat commander Tournament (I...
Having poked my head into the group momentarily, like a whale breaching into the air, to read a few comments, I provide one of my own, then leave to lurk below...
Bill, nice to hear about you ! Farewell too ! Patrice 2009/7/1 William Popovich <popo1@...> ... [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
All, Offered for your amusement: My sons and I (Victor, Edmund, and Neil) like the superpower scenario, but dislike the high (and very a-historical) costs of...
The RR movement rule option 37 should not be used unless there is a need to heavily bias the game in favor of the Axis. It is not broken, but it does effect...
Some of these points are valid. But they almost never happen or are not a big deal: 1. breakthrough into woods happens occasionally but the extra hex is very...
1. Having been blitzed in the hex W Moscow (Moscow was empty) in a Ru40 campaign I don't think this is so trivial. 2. In effect the Japanese gets an interior...
I really don't see it like this. The advantages are just as great, if not more so, for the defender. particular the Chinese who have at least some 3 Movers but...
I'd love to learn how to play - however the rules are rather daunting for a guy starting out on his own. Anyone in the Canberra area keen to start up a game,...
We always use motorized movement, and I think that option should just be part of the base rules. I do not think that rail movement is pro-defender in any way....
Vince: interesting HRs. I would be interested in hearing how it plays. But on the Communist spies giving the Soviet Union ½ the difference in research ...
Hello all. I have a situation in a game I am playing that I was wondering if there is an answer for. Russia and Germany have a level 2 Treaty. Gemany and Italy...
We have always used motorized movement. Anything else we viewed as totally unrealistic. HQ movement is a good point, we have not used it and I agree it would...
Chinese movement is critical when you set up a forward defense. You need to get back to woods/mtns., preferably without flipping. Similarily, HQs in northern...
I like the RR movement rule mostly from a realism POV, but only as long as it is modified such that the minimum cost on the asian map is still 2 points....
As to balancing USSR/GER: the GBA armies and divs help a lot. Also recommend trying Stalin's War: +.25 for USSR when GER DOW USSR or 1942, whichever is first,...
I don't think that the Allies need any more advantages (such as a RU economic boost) in this game. They already have the advantage anyway. ... I like the RR...
This is a weird situation. I suppose you play DoD/WiFFE and that the german hexes are german controlled but not in Germany home country, as Russian could not...
Question to the group: S/O 39, 2nd Axis impulse. GE at war with FR/CW, Italy neutral. Italy DOWs Yugoslavia, gets effects for surprise impulse. Can GE also...
The way we play it is as follows: If Germany DOWs at the same time as Italy they both get surprise, but usually that would be 2 USE rolls. If only one of...
Hello, 2009/7/3 kenzclark <kenzclark@...> ... I believe this to be the right way too. ... You declare all war first (all majors, then all minors), and do...
... Speaking from the Asian perspective in WiF, Japan has to deal with a lot of mountainous terrain in China. IMHO, the RR movement bonus is the only way Japan...
The option was added for America/Patton in Flames but worded as applicable to the other 'in Flames'. So I lack your faith in the all-knowing, all-wise...
If you need to get back to the woods/mtns, then you shouldn't have set up forward, should you? Especially knowing the Japanese will use the same option to...
Just a General announcement at pacificon this year we have four Monster games running all weekend. 1. Storm of Steel World war one corps level 2.Decision games...
I agree, I always use motorized movement and RR bonus with the proviso that the minimum cost = cost of a clear hex in clear weather, i.e. 2 MP along rail in...
The Italians are in Germany and want to rail back into Italy. The Russians are in Czechoslavia and Austria in such a way that they are literally sitting on...
I like the RR bonus rule. One of the things that has always bothered me about Wif is that a motorised INF cost 1 more BP and takes a turn longer to produce...
