Subject:      Wave of Terror - Variable Victory Conditions

This is an update to my variant for WAVE OF TERROR.  Added
is a rule for 10SS and 11th Panzer Division entry.  There
are also some minor text changes but nothing significant.

There is a strong indication that the unit exit conditions
may be a little too tough for the German player. I'd like
to have some feedback if anyone's tried it.

I should have a somewhat historical U.S. setup finished very
soon.

Wave of Terror [Command #41]  -  Variant Victory Conditions

German Variable Reinforcments

     At the beginning of each turn, the German player rolls one die. If he
     rolls a six, the die is rolled again and he consults the following
     chart:

     1-2: All units of the 10SS Panzer Division enter the game from the
     East board edge.
     3-4: All units of the 11th Panzer Division enter the game from the
     East board edge.
     5-6: No variable reinforcements available this turn.

Before the start of the game, the German player secretly chooses one
of the following victory plans:

     1. Historical Plan
     2. Operation Liege-Aachen
     3. Operation Luxembourg
     4. Operation Liege-Luxembourg
     5. Spoiling Attack.

The chosen victory plan is only revealed to the American player at
the end of the game when victory is determined.

       conditions for this Case.

     3-No German units in either Bastogne, Spa, and Houffalize.

     Any other result in this case is a draw.

I have created a sheet of cards for use with the above variant conditions
in Word 7.0 ('95) format.  It is available at the Web Grognards website at
