Hi, OK I started by playing Soviets. Now I am looking at Axis. In 2 turns I have inflicted 478946 casualties on Soviets and their army is larger then when I started.
Most house rules appear to be attempts to negate the monster that is the Red Army. Also they want to ignore the winter of 41/42 was one of the coldest, earliest, longest since... well 1812.
I still will play Axis, but I know going into it there is no "balance"
There was no balance. The Red Army was in turmoil over the purges but it was a more modern army.
If you play Axis win before winter.

Hi, There will be no winners or losers. I am using the public beta and that means I am testing. I redo each turn several times using different in puts. (hasty, deliberate, move in another unit, attack out of C2 move HQ to put attack into C2 blah blah blah)

Hi, I also never understand why Soviet players agree to give up their blizzard. Perhaps we can include an option "it's always summer"

Maybe there are looking for long games which reach the late war periode.
