More proposed custom cards Minor A&A

Totaler Krieg · **Totaler Krieg**

These are a few ideas we are going to add to our newest campaign, hopefully with a minimal amount of tweaking. As these are just drafts and have not been play tested your opinions, as always are welcomed.

Please understand our need is to beef up the British, Japanese, and Minor A&A so they could stand alone in a battle against the US, Russians or Germans, but stay for the most part true to actual historical units.

Note: Some cards will say "partisan" though they were in fact not partisans, like the highly esteemed Devils Brigade, of which the most decorated Canadian hero was a member of. This is so the player understands that this card is recognized as a partisan for our game rules as these units are limited to a specific quantity at a certain tech level.

Nice. Should the Devil's Brigade soldier have some kind of close assault?

Totaler Krieg · **Totaler Krieg**

Well, with my reaserarch I found that they were particularly useful at assaulting fortifications and taking difficult objectives. They were also used as spotters. They were issued a specific machine-gun and had a special knife made for the unit, so the flavor I got from the info was that the unit should be really good at close quarters. The lack of close assault was intentional to keep the cost lower, as it's other SA's are pretty useful. Thank you for the look and comment as I said these are drafts and in a few months I will try to post our final revisions and accepted custom cards.

I also just noticed that the Can. MG team says "partisan" this is an error with the template that was used to make the card, it should just be a soldier unit.

I see you like power gaming ... polish partisan with 5/5 defense? What about heroic 6/6 cavalry, speed 3, with one MG in each hand? Wink

Nothing personal - I like the graphic style, and I agree that if you play with current WotC cards, you need some boost to national builds - because, and that should be noted, WotC planned the game as rather straightforward MtG-style conflict Good vs Evil, so mixture of Allies vs whole Axis (even if they later changed their minds, they did not balanced nationalities).

That's a good start. If you want to get some inspiration for new units, try Sharpedia or our AAM:HHR (see custom cards section).

A couple things...

Why does the Finnish sniper have better values than even the trained Russian marksman?

And: Why is the Canadian Machine Gun a Partisan?

Totaler Krieg · **Totaler Krieg**

Thank You Sindor and Steel_Panther for your replies.
The Minor Allies needed a 5/5 for our campaing and this historical unit seemed to put up a pretty strong fight against the Germans in my research.
As I have said before our campaign is best described as as mix of RISK-Diplomacy type of game. Players can choose any faction and stand alone for the most part in their attemps to conquer the world map by accumulating victory points. I will try to post our campaign rules in the future for any interested parties they are about 40 -50 pages.
I would like to explain that within our game a German player may have a Battle agasinst another German player as an example.

For Steel_Panther, I apologize for the misunderstanding, I have not posted our version of the russian sniper as he has been changed for our campaign his SA was too specific "SS Hunter" was only useful against the germans and this was not pratical for our purposes. i can assure you he will be considered one of the strongest in the campaign we play, but my personal opinion is that it is pretty hard to top the german sniper and his SA that was created by WotC. Regarding the Finnish, if you look up the name that is in the text of card I believe he was credited with the most kills of any sniper in ww2. I understand that he is only one person but if you have the ITalians, Romaninas, Hungarians and the Finnish for the minor axis it is pretty clear what materials you want to use to create a minor axis sniper from, lol.

Once again Thank You for your time and opinions on the custom cards, I hope I have answered your questions and hope to read you in the future.

I know the Finnish sniper your talking about.

He got over 100 kills (probably 200, maybe 500) in just 5 days. Some say he was a major factor in the retreat of the Soviet army.

Steel: Please make your moves in our online game.
