@jaywink I think I've only played Third Reich once, many many years ago, and we didn't finish it. The only thing I remember is that the Germans got a really bad die roll when they were invading France which allowed Britain to launch a naval invasion of Germany.
@IanMoore3000@mastodon.ie Unfortunately my son got tired only after one turn lol. Well, it's kinda complex for a ten year old. In this time he did take over Poland, and I was just prepping troops on the western front.
Maybe in a few years!

Yeah the table can be brutal. The Germans in our game swamped Warsaw, and I got a counter attack with 1-1 odds, even though the attacker was 2-1. This produced a situation where the German 2x4 panzers + 2x5 air could have been completely wiped out by a bad die roll against the two 2x2 polish defenders. But since he then rolled an EX, it wasn't so bad, "only" a loss of 8 factors from the germans (but still quite expensive).
I do favour games with some random in them though, it creates some uncertainty.
