<r> Not that it is commonly likely to be relevant, but an unconquered France would also get them once 1943 starts (after N/D 1942)<br/>

RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR

Now that I have reached the end of the thread I thought I should add my appreciation for your work in reporting about the game you played (while also bettering it). It's reminicent of the old WiF annual that could have the occasional AAR as well. Thanks. [:)]

RE: 'stuffing' the border

How about "If France has been Vichified Germany gets to use next years garrison comparision value" So while Russia is looking at 2:1, Germany is satisfied with 1:1 (seeing as how the combat factors will probably have 2:1 even then)

(Add control of Athens/Oslo to taste)

Is there any optional rule that says "garrison rule doesn't apply to Germany" for Barbarossa purposes? It seems as if that would be a very useful addition. Just call it ...

RE: Unit Descriptions: Air, Naval, Land

Nice summary page there.. but I think they miss out on the poetry in the name. For example, but the Unryu names I found sound nicer than the ones that page suggests, in my opinion. :)

But a very nice page to start ones research from. :)
