Campaign Game

The Campaign Game had Naval Rules, and Diplomatic rules that deviated from and altered the structure used for the other scenarios. Some players complained of ambiguities in these rules and the Campaign Game became known as difficult to play, and unbalanced for 2 players to play. Some commented that the Campaign Game felt "tacked on" to an otherwise excellent collection of scenarios. General Vol. 23 Issue 4 provided official rules to help with the 2 player Campaign Game. However, regarding the Naval Rules, an official correction (2nd Edition Rules of '81) would further complicate matters until the game designer released his own update in General Vol. 19. Issue 5. The Campaign Game was further altered for "more realism" by an article in General Vol. 31 Issue 2.

3rd Edition Game

This Unofficial 3rd Edition of the Rules compiles and reconciles all of the differences in the rules, as published by Avalon Hill over the years. Comprised from the 1st Edition Rulebook, Errata, 2nd Edition Rulebook, 3rd Edition Naval Rules (Official), Q&A, and Misc. released by Avalon Hill through the years, the 3rd Edition Rulebook is the definitive edition. Also included are all official variants and optional rules. Available now for download in the 'Files' section of this page. This effort embraced the official work almost exclusively. The 4th Edition will attempt to fix some of the issues in the official work.

4th Edition Game Available Now

The Unofficial Mapboard, in support of the comprehensive rulebook and titled the 4th Edition Mapboard, is now available. 1st Edition Mapboard was the initial release. Some suggestions for updates were made so that is considered the 2nd Edition (for those who used whiteout on the 4th river of Kiev). The brand new map was the 3rd Edition. The 4.0 version, where unofficial work is involved, is available now on the VASSAL web site as part of the module and as a PDF for printing.

The 4th Edition Rulebook is specific to the 4th Edition Mapboard and has significant unofficial work to fix various issues. The primary focus of the 4th Edition was the new map and the Grand Campaign Game.
