1. So Norway's Ore is now impossible to raid if Axis own Norway no matter the season? Would make it worth fighting for? Lets make Greece Yugo worth fighting for?

2. New Naval Aspects are strange. I watched them go off and it seems to add an element... What was the reason to do this precisely?

3. I like Belgium/Holland ... perhaps Luxembourg should be included? This gives the French more time!

4. I also like the Spain defense, I imagine a Saavy Ally will still figure a way around this with brute force but that's acceptable. N.Africa, Italy and Greece/Vichy may be more used. Normandy is a bit too narrow unless you bring massive forces.

5. Seems to be reasons to keep Axis out of the Atlantic(that was a bit surreal)? Invasions of the USA...

(I like Italians being a little less of a picnic) it will make the Allies have to commit or not commit to going for it more.. I would like it slightly harder but this should improve things.

#1 Yugo has resources. 7 PP + 1% overall which usually for Germany = 12 PP late war or more. Yugo is easy to take.
#1a Greece is more positional than anything else. You can put a tactical air unit in Greece using their port instead of Libya's. But it also has a +1% strategic resource

#2 Gamey issue of the playing cat and mouse with fleets. This way there is a change to find them at the end of a move. It's all part of improving the game system.

#3 Looking into it. But Lux wasn't included in anything from any documents I could find so far. Really doesn't have that large of an impact. But I did add if the French do attack Lux then the Belgium situation doesn't happen. In the next version.

#4 It is a corps level game.

#5 Not following here what you are asking.

Why would the French attacking Luxembourg have any effect on the new Belgian/Netherlands combined attack rule? Sorry but you're just adding another bit of cheap trick nonsense to the game that makes no sense and has no historical bearing. If Germany doesn't attack Lux on turn 1 this just sets up a cheap trick to be played by the allied player. Please get rid of that future change.

What Alvaro is saying is that If France invades Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Belgium can be DOW'ed separately. So not a clever move by the Allies if that happens.
