Please remember that these rules are scenario specific. Some of them might appear weird at fist glance. The surprise benefits given to the aggressor in
particular will properly seem overly generous to many. Please believe me when I tell you that they are not some whimsical idea of mine: The whole concept behind EAW is to start off with a bang and the axis need to
conquer a lot of territory in the first years: This stuff is an integral part of the game. Mind you, I'd never play with most of this in a normal campaign. For more general house rules I strongly recommend you
check out World in Flames Deluxe. The rules to be found there are always worth playing with.
