I like your Italy rule but if you ever wanted to play a game with Italy in the action at the start I'd recommend using "The Good Captains" Rebalance rule of Italy only starting with 3 infantry and 2 artillery in each Piedmont and Rome when I used it, and it helped the CP not get bogged down in Venice and actually take it and it had the French having to supply the Italians

I've played many a strategy board game by myself, so I understand your situation brother. I've gotten my brother to play with me twice on this game, but that is it. Would love to play a game with you and try out different rules (like technology and events).

Tip I could give if you already have some other axis and allies variants: make your own. Using a printer, some paint and a mix of re-purposing original-variant pieces and simply using pieces from my 1942 2nd-edition, I have the closest thing you can have to 1914 that isn't simply a bought 1914

How many rushin' jokes were their? 3?) Great to see you making videos again))) I've been playing AA1914 a lot with my friends, and I keep playing CP and keep winning. We've hardly ever had the entente win. But I think it's more connected to my friends not really having experience in this game. I think rails for Germany and Austria is a good enough buff to help them out. The ability to move troops quickly between fronts as they did in the real war.

Also, we decided about invading a colony of a neutral country, the home territory only mobilizes. European countries didn't have strong armies in Africa, So, when the US invades Spanish Africa, Spain mobilizes, while the colony doesn't. I think this way it is more logical, historically accurate and more balancing.

How does the Rail rule work? Movement anywhere inside home country, or just a move of 2? Can everyone move? Thanks in advance!

@@danielbogomyagkov9217 Interesting. I think they did the whole mobilization thing just to give people something to do in a few spots on the board that typically would just get run over. I think it would be interesting to play that only the spaces worth 2 or more will mobilize, and the one worth a single IPP would be worth zero to the invader.

@@TheHilltopPillboxthe one I saw was you can move up to 3 armies (any number of units from one territory) from any territory to any other, if they are connected by land that is controlled by you, or an allies country that has the railroad tech open. But I think it should have a limit of something like 10 units per turn can be moved by rail.

@@TheHilltopPillboxalso interesting. And then one more question, shouldn't minor allied countries always revert back to the major power they are allied to? Say like Belgium being freed by the British, but the territory goes to the french. And the same way with the colonies in Africa. Then France gets really powerful.

Italy is interesting. I rather whould do a US slow build up? Russia seems a bit to random. Makes it hard to play Russia for sure... I whould limit it to attacking into CP areas and give them extra recruits whenever it happens (if you fail you get free infantry recruited?).
@TheHilltopPillbox

Free infantry for Russia is interesting... Yeah, I'll keep fidgeting with that Russia thing. I do the USA build that way because it's easier to just do it on one turn, rather than trickle things onto the board each time. A time-saver for solo games!

Throwing the Austrians at UN-India was a novel idea, but I think it was ultimately a bad play as it let Russia hang on long enough for the Entente to win the game elsewhere before the Central Powers' income could really even attempt to get going. Of course, Entente winning in 1914 is hardly a surprising result.

Yeah, it wasn't an easy choice, and perhaps I should have put the entire stack into the Russian gamble. It did keep the UK at bay for a single turn, but that wasn't very telling. Thanks for watching and commenting!

How about every nation uses tournament rules for movement except Russia? That would restrict their movement without the randomness. Love the 1914 solo vids.
