Rise and Decline of the Third Reich

Description
The Game is set up for the campaign scenario.

The Game starts with the 1939 scenario cards out as decals. The cards for later scenarios are included in the mod but you will have to replace them yourself using the decal tool. All necessary pieces for the neutral and minor nations are layed out beside the board as they have no faction sheet.

Rules:https://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/50134/3r-4th-edition-rules


--------------
Rise and Decline of the Third Reich is a realistic simulation of the grand strategic situation as it existed in Europe during WWII. It features 6 games in 1; a campaign game of 24 turns which runs from the invasion of Poland to Germany's final defeat or victory, an advanced game providing additional complexity, a multi-player version (in which even the Italian player can be the winner), and three 12-turn scenarios which allow you to play faster games. Third Reich is not for the faint of heart or the beginner simulation gamer. For 2 to 6 players. 560 counters which includes 1 blank one

Rise and Decline of the Third Reich is a classic "grand strategy" wargame covering the European theater of WWII. The game is huge in scope. Players take on the roles of all of the major national powers and can simulate the entire war effort from 1939 until the end (often isn't until 1946). This game is a favorite of many because of an excellent balance between politics and military might, and it gives players a chance to try things that did not happen historically to see if they might have worked better (e.g., Germany invading Spain). This game is definitely not for the novice gamer. The rules are intricate, and there are many factors for players to deal with: resources, unit production, negotiation, and, of course, strategic warfare.

It should be, let me know if any images don't work, think I used Imgur which sometimes bins images you've saved on it.

well the interface for using Table top is obviosuly for the smart and not the dumb

Ill stick to using Vassal for Board Games as so much easier to learn.

All the Hi res and 3D etc is just gimmicks if it is too hard to learn to play.

I would enjoy playing this game. I have seen the box set one time year ago, and have been playing an old DOS version that is extremely unforgiving with its UI, but I absolutely long for a human opponent. Thanks for the efforts of putting this together so well.

I have been wishing for this for years! Third Reich is the best board game I've ever played. I still have the complete game set. Thank you so much for having made it possible to now play on the computer!

Ok thanks, my first time. So Host means Click Create . Took me ages to work that out.

Lots of things to learn,

Rasputin you'll need to subscribe to this mod. Then host a game (either single or multiplayer) it'll load an empty table and at the top of the screen there will be a menu bar. Click games then workshop and this game along with any others you've subscribed to will be in that list for you to load up.

There is a tutorial at the main menu which explains how to interact with objects like dice etc.

First - THANK YOU! Your efforts are much appreciated. I can get you high-rez scans of the Faction Cards. Just let me know if you still need them. They would make your game perfect. I sent a friend request. Thanks again.

Thank you! Looks like someone has put up some scans of the faction sheets on boardgamegeek. No idea if these are high enough quality for TTS though. At any rate, after seeing the sheets themselves, it seems you're right. Everything except a few restrictions (Russian city garrisons, German Eastern Front requirements) are in the rulebook or "on the board" through your initial counter placement.
