Jan Kristians Play Aids

Wacht am Rhein II is in my opinion almost a perfect Operational level game. It is in devotion to this marvellous game I have spent hours making a set of Play-Aids. In the process of developing these Play Aids I have slowly grasped the game system and the rules. As a solitaire-player in Norway I have found this method to be the best way to learn, which was also the intention when I started the work. I have spent hours searching for rules-clarifications on Consimworld and reading the rulebook trying to identify every little detail and nuance to the rules system. These documents are in no way an ultimate solution to the learning process, but my hope is that the Play-Aids could be helpful to somebody out there struggling to get this game going and by that contribute to make the WaR II community grow.

Finally I give my thanks to Joey Youst for creating this beautiful game and cross my fingers that the same game system will be used in Atlantic Wall II.

Player turn guide: Updated 2008-06-17  My aim with this document is to compile all relevant rules together. By compiling relevant rules all the paging back and forth in the rules booklets is avoided and it’s much faster to lookup rules. It should be possible to start at the top of the Sequence of Play and follow the document through a complete game turn.
