Sundays 7-11pm.
Maximum 8 countries.
Play will continue if 6 Major powers are present: UK, USA, Russia, Japan,
Italy & Germany.
Same house rules as other DD games.
Extra players may elect to coop majors: UK, USA, Germany & Japan.
Guidelines for USA entry:
Base USA war entry is 1 january 1942.
1/Each seperate Axis DOW/Alliance with the following countries: Turkey, Spain,Tibet, Persia brings forward USA entry by 6 months eg and attack on Spain would allow USA to join the war 1 July 1941(may not DOW Japan unless Tibet was the country attacked). If Turkey and Persia are DOW/brought in to alliance USA may enter 1st January 1941.
2/The reverse is also true: Should the UK ally with anyone of the above countries USA war entry is put back 6 months.
3/However Japan may DOW USA anytime from start of 1941 & USA may enter immediately should Japan DOW on the UK. Saying this any events which fire due to a successful Sealion may be honoured.
4/Should Gibralter be captured the USA may send unlimited Destroyers and CVL ships to the UK. This in adddition to the 6 months reduction for Spanish attack. This is needed for the extra length of UK convoys.
5/Also should Russia not be attacked by 1st June 1942 the USA may enter the European war at anytime.This is needed so we do not end up with a facical UK vs German/Italy for years on end because of some deal made with the Russians.
6/The USA is not required to join...but they may.
7/If Russia decides to enter the war over a Sweden or Turkey attack the 6 month reduction for USA entry does not apply.
Italian Entry is as per previous agreement...Paris needs to be captured no CW troops in the Med(SA,NZ & and Australia must remain in their home provinces until Italy is in the war) and only after March 1940 regardless if Paris is captured earlier. The only CW puppets allowed in the Med prior to war with Italy are Oman, Yemen and Iraq.
Japan and Russia may not war with each other until 1st Jan 1943. USSR must either be at war with Germany or Germany must already have been defeated before USSR can dow Japan. Further extensions can be agreed between the 2 countries. Both countries must garrision the border with at least 1 regular division(not militia) in each common border and puppets.
No major war until Danzig.
These guidelines can be discussed and reviewed at anytime due to events around the world. They are not rules as such but guidelines required for a semi historical and partly balanced game.
No major war until Danzig.
It is expected that players honour these so as everyone receives a fair go.
