Comments
The loaded scenarios are 1: correct order of battle 2: BANZAI! (1/1942 to 6/1942)
The Rule book for PTO was also used for structure.
While the very good design work by EH on APTO included an increase in game functions over PTO, I found them a bit scripted on how WWII actually occurred. In the simplified Special Rules, I have tried to make this less scripted and more of a challenge to the role of Joint Chiefs played by the player with issues arising from above and below the command level. It allowed me to simplify the rules.
Page numbers have gone from, 60 in PTO to 152 in APTO to 70 now here in this fan development.
