Description: There are many editions of this game because it was released as it was still being developed. I do not know all the differences between the first 5 editions. I do know that the 2nd & 4th editions had 1000 counters and maps with 7 colors. The 5th edition includes 1200 counters and maps with 8 colors. The Final Edition Classic (6.0) came with 1400 counters and better graphics on counters and a map of America was also included along with updated combat and builds charts. Two 10 sided dies were included in this edition.The Final Edition Deluxe (6.1) came with 3600 counters and included expansions AFiF, ASiF PiF, SiF, & MiF. It also included the maps and counters with better graphics and upgrades from the previous version. In addition to everything that comes with my fifth edition, are 5 expansions complete with additional maps, counters and scenarios, plus one Variant Game of WWI and 2 Annuals. A total of 4000 counters. The WWI Variant offered here is not included in any of the editions that I have found. It is being offered by ADG as a separate game. All of this information is provided for buyers to evaluate the relative value of the different editions. This 5th edition that is being offered as slightly more valuable than the 6th edition deluxe because the inclusion of the WWI Variant Game and 2 Annuals more than outweighs the improved graphics in the 6th Deluxe Edition (actually the 5th edition graphics on maps & counters are very good). Also, the updated rules, and charts are available for download on the ADG website. Below is an inventory of what is included. Aso see photos. 1.

Looking for a War Game? Check my other listings. More to come (50 +).A lot of games on eBay are listed with the comment "seems to be complete". All of my games are inventoried to ensure they are complete. This means that small pieces are sorted and counted. In most cases, if there are any missing pieces, I can tell you which pieces are missing. This is time consuming and big dealers cannot invest the necessary time for this amount of detail. My games are priced to be equal to or lower than other listings in the "same general condition" as the ones that I am listing.
