Hey everybody. John Fogger and I have agreed to play FITE ( Ron's Mod v. 1.8 ) and he gave me the Title of our AAR and I thought I'd best post it somewhere before I forgot what he wanted for a a title. Fogger wants to be the Axis which leaves me the Soviet side. There's some house rules for this thing and I thought maybe I should specify what they are:
House rules for FiTE modifications
Here are the house rules for the Buzz mods as sent to me by Buzz himself:
Original House rules:
1) Minors may not stack, or attack together with other minors. (Exception: Swedes may stack and attack with Finns) – KEEP.
2) Hungarian, Rumanian and Slovakian units may not move before turn 4. The Finns may not move until turn 6. THIS IS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE ACTIVATED BEFORE TURN 4 AND 6. If the Soviet forces moves into the respectivly minors, or attack any of their units, this restriction is lifted – DELETE.
3) Only Inf type units (Mtns, Marine, JG etc., NOT Cav, Mot., Armored, Art, HQ ect. ) may invade. Only 1 Division for the Axis may invade pr. turn. Soviet forces may invade with (Current year-1940) divisions each turn. E.g. this means the Soviet player may invade with 5 Divisions in 1945 and one in 1941. Invasion is defined as entering a hex that's enemy controlled BEFORE the turn started. This is regardless of whether the hex was occupied by enemy units – KEEP.
(Note: this rule applies to sea-borne invasions, not the land units moving into Russia in Operation Barbarossa.)
4) Units are not allowed to paradrop more than 10 hexes away from friendly land units able to trace a supply path to a friendly supply source – KEEP.
5) The only HQ allowed to airlift behind enemy lines are the 7th FJ Div HQ – KEEP.
6) The Finns may not move south of the original border north of Leningrad (line marked on map), or south of the Svir River at the Karelian ness (marked), east of the line by Karhumäki (marked) and across the old border by Salla (marked), untill turn 40. Further more, given the special circumstance of the historic involvement of the Finns, they are not allowed embark on ships or attack into ANY Leningrad or Murmansk hexes. If Leningrad falls the restrictions on the Finns are lifted – DELETE.
(Note: this is a very important change as it allows the Finns to pose a threat to Leningrad and Murmansk – which was not possible with the original house rule. When combined with the deletion of Rule 7 (below) a lot of strategic possibilities are opened up for the Axis player)
7) The Axis player may only send one German division or three air formations to Finland. This is in addition to German divisions that start or enters as reinforcement in Finland and Norway. Only two GERMAN divisions may be in or attack out from the southern part of Finland at any time. (Area below the non-playable, black area) All restriction on the German forces are lifted on turn 136 or if Sweden joins the war – DELETE.
8) Axis forces are not allowed to enter the foot of Italy - KEEP.
9) No ground attacks may be made from non-active minor countries. (Finland from turn 6, Hungary and Rumania from turn 4) – DELETE (buzz mod 7 provides theater options for earlier start times, anyway).
10) No units are allowed to enter Sweden unless Sweden joins the Axis by the use of Theater Options. No Swedish units must be moved unless Sweden has been activated – KEEP.
11) After the German Case Blau offensive in 1942 Theater Options appear for the Axis to bully Sweden and/or Turkey to join them. THIS THEATER OPTION IS PURELY OPTIONAL AND SHOULD BE DISCUSSED BETWEEN THE TWO PLAYERS BEFORE THE GAME BEGINS. IT IS JUST TO ADD FLAVOR TO THE SCENARIO – Make available as soon as it appears (normally Soviet turn 1).
12) Units may ONLY be disbanded if they are in a city hex (minor or major) AND are able to trace a supply path to a friendly supply source. Remember you cannot trace supply in enemy Zone Of Control unless that hex contains a friendly units – DELETE --- NO DISBANDING ALLOWED AT ALL.
13) Slovak, Hungarian, Turkish and Rumanian units may not enter Finland - KEEP.
Other house rules:
a. Again, no manual disbanding authorized.
b. No usage of the UNDO button / feature.
c. Again, no restrictions regarding Finland, whatsoever, except 13 (to include the rest of the above and those that came with Buzz Mod ver 7).
d. As I haven’t gone too far beyond the first winter in any FitE game, not sure of any other house rules for later time periods. If we get that far and we come across an issue we can discuss and decide, then.
