World in Flames Rules Aug 2004 (WiF-RaW-7-aug-04.zip or Word Document) Scenario RTF (which contains)30. Set up (30setup.zip a Excell spreadsheet)ORIGINAL: Cheesehead
I noticed a rules change from the rules that came in my cardboard WiFFE game that I ordered 4 years ago and one of the download versions of RAW from the ADG site. The discrepancy has to do with the conquest of Italy. According to the WiFFE rules that come in the box, the Allies have to meet 3 out of 4 conditions to conquer Italy. The four conditions being: Occupy Tripoli, Occupy Rome, Occupy another printed factory hex and higher garrison value. Then, maybe a year or two ago I printed out a RAW download from ADGs site. In that copy it added a 5th condition (occupy Addis Ababa) and the Allies had to meet 4 out of 5 conditions. I just logged on to the ADG site from the previous post and noticed that the Italy conquest rule is back to the original 3 out of 4 conditions to conquer Italy, with the Addis Ababa condion absent (again)! I would think that I must have imagined this...but I printed out the RAW with the 4 out of 5 conditions and it is sitting right in front of me now. Did anyone else notice this change...and then change back? Very curious.

This was an editor's error (a leftover from a previous suggestion). Addis was removed and really never was required to conquer Italy.ORIGINAL: Cheesehead
