Ryan, I also usually use the -1 entrenchment rule below. Is that okay with you? It is part of Ted's rules. 11.2.10 (Optional) Whenever a German, British, French or Italian unit fails an entrench roll place a reminder marker on thatunit. On any attempt to entrench on the following round the unit subtracts one from the die roll (–1 drm). If there is no attempt to entrench on the following round (including the next round of the following turn) or the entrench attempt is successful remove the marker. Trench die rolls are never modified by more than –1. |

And yes, no entrench card as event Turn 1. A version I've been playing has these changes: Remove VP spaces from Turkey (Jerusalem and Kharput) Add two VP spaces: Koblenz and Aachen Remove VP spaces from Ahwaz and Venice and Minsk Add VP spaces at Kovno and Sedan and Amiens Another they did was: RP change: The CP receives 1 GE RP each TW turn, i.e., after it has drawn T cards, if during the RP interphase it has at least three French /Belgian spaces, including Sedan. |

Yes, defending can play any CCs and then roll the combat. I'm still using an older module but we can make it work. As long as the VP spots are the same since they change them up in a couple scenarios. |

I am sorry. Please ignore that whole turn. Forgot we just started a new game and entrenching is not an option until the card is played and it can't be played until the second turn. Please forgive. |
| 12 | 2/14/2021 3:24:00 PM | August 1914 | Allies | Message |
Thank you for the suggestion on the nomenclature. Are we going with the defender plays any CC and then does the roll request? Oh and the map that starts the module is missing the AH corps in Trent. I will assume the CP will want to place that unit there, correct? |

Hi Ryan, Brest Litovsk is a fort in the map I have but not a VP. Sedan is a VP and Kharput is not. The module verison i have is 10.1. |

I'll use 5.7 off vassal. The VP changes it shows are sedan and Brest litovsk are now VPs, taking away Venice and kharput. If your map shows that than I'm all set. |

Hi Ryan, Good question. Those are all new to me. I have been using the VASSAL Deluxe Map Historical scenario and then adding the AH corps to Trent and using Ted's rules and for victory conditions, section 5.7 Historical Scenario Rules. I very flexible and want us both to have fun. I am open to any adjustments, just tell me which of the other changes we should use and I am good with it. Alan |
| 6 | 2/13/2021 5:54:00 PM | August 1914 | Central Powers | Message |
Both none. I want to make sure that we are on the same page for set up. Ted's optional for the cards and corps on the map are fine, which set up are you using for VP spots? They have changed depending on the scenario. They removed Venice and put one in Sedan, removed Kharput and made one in Brussels, removed Minsk and put one in either Brests Litovsk or Kovno, depending on the setup. |
