Thanks, Ben! This was a particularly excellent series. If looking for the next board game, please consider GMT's Pendragon. Fascinating game, but the rules are rough and particularly the combat rules are stumping me.

[@FeyNick]

Or a Levy and Campaign game, maybe something like Plantagenet would be great if it got the Harsh Rules treatment. I'm eyeing that one in particular.

13:25 I think you have the effect of Air units in China wrong. The modifier for air units doesn’t add to the Offensive Baseline Value. It is instead added to the die roll.

[@scottcampbell4810]

Agreed. See 13.72 in the rules.
