Breakdown question

<t> Germany has two MOT div's in their destroyed pool. A 1pt and a 2pt. Germany also has a 2pt INF div in its force pool. Germany has various INF corps inside and outside Germany not in ZOC. Is there a reason Germany can not breakdown a corp using these MOT div's during the Breakdown phase/step? Not...

RE: AI on the horizon

<t> I am a veteran WiF player...going on 20 years now. Have been to several cons both in Michigan as well as Germany. I have played some of the best in the world (Andrew Rader). This game is completely playable. I can recommend it to any veteran WiF players, and I am satisfied that my $100 was well ...

RE: War in China - House rules for more historical simulation

Agree with Centuur. From the initial set up, the Soviets should also keep an eye on Japan to see if they are ready with Peacekeepers for Persia.

RE: Veteran PBEM global war

Strong player here. Instead of Skype I play on Discord. There is an active Discord MWiF group. PBE dice roller of course. I like either side. No problem with your options...although curious why no Queens? And variable re-org?

RE: Playing internet game

There is a fairly large Discord WiF group with multiple games going on, and players wanted (no netplay though). If interested, let me know.

RE: War in China - House rules for more historical simulation

With this MWiF map I find defending China fairly easy. As the Jap player I don't even try going after China as its a waste of time and energy, and vital resources that are needed to win the game.

Breakdowns/reform

<t> Not sure if this is a rule question or a tech problem: The US player has two divisions it would like to reform after having them broken down previously. The units are not in a ZOC, and the original corp they broke down from is available. The divisions were transported to a new location. MWiF wil...

RE: VP totals

I tend to take out Persia early with the USSR to make sure I can get the oil and the build points out of India when war starts with Germany.

Well, there is an Axis response to USSR DOW vs Persia...
