Sell it to me or Seedy.   :P

It is entirely in French.

English rules are online.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.
-J. R. R. Tolkien

SIgh. Maybe I should figure out what is wrong with VASSAL...

:rolleyes:

Yes, you should

You could team up with Habbaku. Solmyr and I would kick your asses.

Wouldnt Berkut have to complete the turn in which your foot makes contact with his ass for that to happen?

Good point  :(

At any rate, Solmyr, try getting familiar with the rules. You can pretty much limit yourself to the movement war rules and diplomacy for now. Rest comes alive in September or October.

I will take a look at fiddling with the vassal module itself. as I can see the tech chit selection is not random in it, which is a bit of bummer. Not a show stopper by far, but still kinda annoying.

Because, BTW people, that is how research works: each turn (from October) you draw a number of chits (two IIRC) from a pool that is year-dependant (no tanks in 1914, sorry). Then you select which one you want to research. So it definitely leaves room for a custom route yet you cannot utilise historical hindsight.

Did he really just challenge Berkut+Habs?

Seriously?

Still haven't found a decent copy priced less than a BMW car payment.   :glare:

Damn it I never should have punched the counters and opened the box and played several games should I?  Probably lost thousands.

Well I know it is not entirely balanced, but I will give you two some advantage to compensate.

It has the advantage of at least one side always handing in its turns.

Tamas isn't that bad - he almost never forgets his turns until he starts losing badly.

Depends on whether you can prove you have all the counters.
