As well, the weather charts are based on the 1943 and 1944 weather records for northern France and England. Thanks for pointing that out!

  I'm starting to get my head around playing this game. Only thing in the rules that is confusing me is the casualty rule for victory boxes. The rules say to 'add 3 to the dice roll'. Does that mean instead of 1 casualty you incur a total of 4 casualties if you roll a 1d6 and the result means you take casualties? I find that one a rule a bit confusing.

  I think the DRM in turn 1 to theater battles only apply to actions taken in the Arctic, N. Africa, and Middle East theaters. Since you didnt use an activation for one of those theater's battles, the DRM doesnt apply that turn. Thats just how I interpreted the rule though. Thanks for the video. It helped me understand some of the rules better than the printed instructions.
