Some people play to win even if this means stuffing the border or building super balbo, to not play against a player who tries to win is not as fun, and to not...
... Some Italian guy with a goatee and a big red "S" on his Regia Aeronautica uniform who can summon hordes of Caproni and Savoia Marchettis to bomb the...
Very close. However, Super Balbo refers to a strategy wherein the Italians send at least one HQ (the best being Balbo) and lots of planes. The Italians may...
... This theory may hold true in a close-the-med-41-barb-42 strategy, but the assumtion in this discussion has been that Germany tried to break garrison in 41,...
We are playing with DoDIII and the US did not play the ND40 election. As a result the Republicans came to power. IPO10 seems to be stating that the US has an...
I disagree. I made no assumption on closing the med in '41 (which is an entirely different ball game, IMO). Well...I take it back, I assumed that the Axis...
I understand that according to the rules I am stuck with an uncooperative France. Yet it seems to me that if France sis conquered that the survivors would be...
Maybe your experience is based mostly on 41-close-the-med strategies, then? In my experience, it is usually the WAllies that go on the offensive first, usually...
... You may confuse Democratic ideology (one of the 3 ideology of DoD among Democratic, Communist and Fascist) and Democrates/Republicans administration of the...
To grossly summarize, Free France came to be as a counter balance to the official French government that was in Vichy. And even then it came very slowly as a...
Unless the reason the stuff actually worked was that Germany was being smart and building a mixed force of land + naval assets....in which case, the CW could...
Sure, but in that case I would say that Germany didn't even try to break the garrison, which means that you're moving outside the context of this thread. ...
But Free France does not equate to incompletely conquered France. France is still quite useful in that all its navy on the map can be used for convoy escorting...
But which side actually won the game? ... From: Kevin Bernatz <redjac2003@...> To: wifdiscussion@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tue, 2 Dec 2008 9:10 am Subject:...
I seem to remember that about a year ago, with the new print of MiF, that the rules regarding the nationality of city based volunteers was changed, so that CBF...
You can usually save almost all the French Convoys and often many of the cruisers and even the 2 subs - to become FF. A FF that has this is an excellent...
Hello, The latest FAQ file is here : http://www.a-d-g.com.au/download/WiFFE_FAQ_v1.2_12_Nov_2008.pdf I think it is not wise to cross post it elswhere, because...
I believe it was 201. Quite impressive. And I agree about a '42 Barb being dangerous, assuming Germany doesn't spend all of 1941 in a coma. Which it...
The CBV question is answered curiously enough in the section on CBVs (22.4.8). Quote: City based volunteers that arrive in cities in an aligned minor country,...
Here are the FAQs I was thinking of in reference to Hakon's Q2 (Note the question numbers may be off by one or two from the published version Patrice linked,...
What happens to these units on a 1939 standard scenario? The country begins aligned so its units must be placed on map and used by germany with the typical...
No, It has a special aligned status. from memory it is written in the scenario book. The minor is aligned but GER cannot use its units Ā EC "Victory needs no...
... As stated in the scenario booklet at § 24.1.5, austrian and czech units are only used when playing with DOD (1936 scenario). But Germany can setup the...
I am aware of the points below from the faq, indeed I was studing that document quite closesly just before posting. The critical part related to reversion to...
Yes, I was aware of 22.4.8, too. I was just convinced that I had heard, possibly here on the forum, that this was changed in an errata around the time the new...
Ok, something I am not clear with then. Let's assume Algeria was Vichy and is later conquered by the CW. Can it be reverted to Free France? Or does the CW has...
The allies CAN revert to FF, as said in the faq, and also on this forum today. I don't think the Axis can revert to Vichy, at least I haven't found any such...
