Well we got some great ideas from the developer that will deal with this Polish situation as it stands currently. This and other things for balance and historical reasons. I can't reveal those yet, so in the interim until some changes are made I have some suggested house-rules for MP. Also, I made two maps showing the lines outlined in the Strategy Guide regarding Poland as a players aid. This will help in visualizing Poland's A.O.,whether using the house-rules or not.
Note on the map where it says "Poland Allowed" or "Poland Not Allowed" is intended for the house-rules...but it should help when not using them, as Poland will lose FS if crossing the boundaries as shown on the maps.
House-Rules for Shadow of the Tsars MP play:
1) Polish Units restricted to Poland, Ukraine, Baltic States, Makhnovist Territory, and Russia west of the Berezina River\Lake Naroch.
2) 4 Diplo Chits max for the Whites.
3) Southern Whites must disband the Tank..but keep the MMPs that are gained.
4) Bolsheviks can't build the Tank.
5) Poles can build the Tank
I believe Duedman in another MP match is using something similar. He has done the same in our current match.
Again these rules are just a suggestion..but I am going to use them as Whites in a future match.
Hope these maps help as an aid with the geography outlined in the SotT Strategy Guide concerning Poland.
