22 NOV 2011 v0.2 FILE SIZE:13.0MB New version with many corrections .... Weather markers to drop on the TRC to keep track of weather.

Battle markers have Increase and Decrease for both battle number and odds now. Mouse over now shows for any numbers of units in a hex. Hex grid now aligned properly (was about 2 rows out). Counter colours now match the counter sheets from BGG. Eliminated Pile added Ground units have short cut key (CTRL-E) to send to the Eliminated Pile Aircraft: There was 1 extra Allied TAC aircraft (12 total instead of 11????). I removed the second 1st USAF counter. Aircraft need a Move to AMC chart short cut key. Fired marker option for naval units. German units that setup (units listed under "At Start" on the 1st OOB card), can be hidden.

Actively under construction as of 01-Sep; seeking evaluators

From http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/4050/fortress-europa.... Fortress Europa recreates the Allied campaign in Western Europe from D-Day to March 1945. The Allied player must select an invasion site and make a successful landing, breakout of the beachhead, drive across France and push deep into Germany. The German player must prevent the Allied Invasion or else conduct and orderly withdrawal across France, constantly delaying the Allies, and then counter attacking in the winter. Fortress Europa is the successor to Avalon Hill’s highly acclaimed Russian Campaign...The basic game is 37 turns long, but several scenarios are provided for those wishing a shorter game. In addition, Sudden Death Victory Conditions are included which shorten the basic game ...
