Harsh Rules - Let's Learn To Play ATTACK! by Eagle Games- Expansion Rules

[@amajou]

I really like this videos, thanks for doing them! However, there are several mistakes, some of them crucial: - The graphs for Communists say they get an extra point for each region they own, instead of for each communist minor neutral - it says you add +1 for diplomatic Blitz against adjacent regions, but you add nothing against adjacent regions - It says you place your capital first, when actually you choose which one of your 4 regions will be your capital LAST - It says the game ends after 10 eagles are played, when it's actually 13 - The rule mentioned that if you fail a diplomatic blitz other players get a try is not in the rules. - Maybe it was just a simplification, but the combat is one side at a time, with one side bringing reinforcements BEFORE the other player fires. This actually is very important from a strategic point of view, because you're effectively bringing the units that the other player will fire at. - Just like in the base game, the navy cards are not shuffled but CHOSEN. This is ofc a huge difference, because there's some strategy involved in how you'd set your battle line, not simple randomness. Sigh. I'll still be sending your videos to people who want to learn the game, but I'll have to remember to correct those rules. Hopefully one day you'll add a correction caption or something ^^

Este es de los pocos videos que hablan sobre este estupendo juego. Saludos

In the Combat Phase, the rule book states that the defender fires first, and the hits are applied immediately. Then the attacker replaces any lost units with reserve units and fires the first round dice. This video makes it seem like the combat is simultaneous. Did I miss something?

Is the base game alone any good? How does it compare to risk and the basic A&A 1941? :)

There are two rules you describe that doesnt match what i have in my rulebook that came with the game, so i was wondering if there was a update i missed, or a errata or if these where house rules... - First, when you describe victory condition, for democracy, you write "1 point per minor neutral", but for Comunism you write "1 point per territory you control". In my rule book, Democracy and Comunist have the same victory point system (1 point per minor neutral of their allegiance on the board). - The other thing is the fact that when you miss a diplomatic blizt, others can then try. This is also not in the original rulebook. I was thinking that maybe you took this from a errata document from Eagle games? I mean i kind of agree with boosting communist victory point system as its hard to keep minor neutral at the end, so i was really wondering if this option was a good balanced alternative to the rules.

+Louis Morin, I've hauled out the rule book again. I'm looking a Page 16. Communist 1 Victory Point for each communist minor neutral. Democracy 1 Victory Point for each democracy minor neutral The writing is the same. I think the difference I was getting at is that Communists can invade without penalty. Therefore "control." Democracy gets penalized -1 victory point for invading. No doubt I could've been clearer. The victory point award system is designed your government relations with minor neutral nations. The"Hint" paragraph at the bottom of the page elaborates on the different government play styles. I'm digging through my rulebooks and notes for Attack! to see if I can find that bit others trying if you fail the diplomatic blitz. I'll post once I find the text.

+Harsh Rules Thank you for the answer. Your book have the same as mine. My confusion came from the moment where at 4:02 where you used "+1 each region owned" for communist and "+1 for each Democracy minor neutral" in the "victory point awarded" section of the graphic. But in general, good job, i am going to send your video to a gaming group i want to introduce to this game as i find your presentation very clear and well made.
