Really comprehensive guide. I had almost given up on this game, given the confusing and badly organised manual and the atrocious "official" video tutorials. Thank you so much for rekindling my interest. These videos are truly helpful.

[@WWBoardgamer]

Glad I could help. The game takes a while to pick up all the little tricks but after a while it's a lot of fun.

[@fredschwarz2376]

Another excellent guide video. Thank you!

[@Floofskan]

Thank you for this video! It was a lifesaver considering how niche this game is

Where is your accent from? Cleveland? Chicago? Ontario CA? Certain words you say, like 'particular' strike from some geographic region I only barely know. Upper Michigan? Am I close? As I said before, you have a manner of speaking that is really great for instruction. And you don't waste too much time with unnecessary information. I'm really appreciating the work you have done. I've had this game for a year and barely putzed around till your videos came into my life :0 Thank you!

[@WWBoardgamer]

Ontario CA. Thank you for your comment. Much appreciated.

Are there any adverse (Political?) effects from taking LUX and DEN ahead of historical dates?

[@WWBoardgamer]

For taking the countries early, there are none. Certain countries like an invasion of England will bring the US in earlier.

[@yzfool6639]

@@WWBoardgamer There needs to be an adverse political effect. Every neutral on the Atlantic would have been alarmed at such a move. Belgium would almost certainly have allowed France and the UK to move into defensive positions within their country, for example.

[@WWBoardgamer]

@@yzfool6639 New updates have Belgium joining the Allies if Netherlands or Luxembourg are invaded by the Axis. Netherlands remains neutral fi Belgium and/or Luxembourg are invaded.

[@johnsaxon5154]

@@WWBoardgamer I lost a game because I invaded Netherlands and didn't know about that new rule about Belgium joining the Allies....

[@WysteriaGuitar]

Which game is better, WARPLAN Europe or WARPLAN Pacific?

[@WWBoardgamer]

I do enjoy both but my preference is Europe. IMO, seems to have greater replay value.
