0.
All rules as in regular Diplomacy save as below.
1.
The game starts in Autumn 1939, this is a special build only season during which
the players only need to specify their initial 3 builds (4 for the Soviets, 5
for the UK). Note that if a fleet is built in the Middle East, Leningrad or
Tokyo, then the coast must be specified.
2.
Hamburg, Egypt and Panama are canal spaces and thus have only one coast, thus
they can be moved through by fleets (Eg. Con and Kie in Diplomacy). Fleets may
pass through Denmark, Korea and Kynshu, for example in two moves a fleet may
move F(Yellow Sea)-Korea and then F(Korea)-Sea of Japan.
There
is no direct move between Greece and Turkey or between Spain and Tripoli.
Switzerland is passable.
3.
Pacific Island Areas: namely, Guam, Yap, Wake, Midway and Hawaii can be moved
through by both fleets and armies without restriction. Note that Central Pacific
Ocean is a sea space.
4.
There are 38 supply centres and 20 are needed for victory.
