Question:
All I have to support this point is personal experience of having played 1914 about 4 times and some knowledge of the historical campaign but I don’t agree that the Germans should get +1 in every attack they make during the first three turns of the war (remembering that 3 German armies have automatically successful activation rolls in II AUG and 2/3 success activation rolls in I SEP); IIRC, quite a number of German attacks ended-up badly bloodied when directly confronting defenders who stood and fought – the defense usually retreated when Germans were lapping around the flanks (which the game does really well already)…and the scenario doesn’t limit the +1 to only the Army of the Meuse or even only to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Armies, it gives +1 to the attacks in the south that were launched against the Schlieffen Plan and even to Germans in the East (clearer writing to fix this)

Answer:
The +1 bonus applies to ‘The Army of the Meuse’, as described in the scenario. It will also apply to the 1,st, 2nd, 3rd armies during the Special pre-turn (only), before the regular AUG II 14 turn begins.

I had planned to post a list of TGW changes very soon that would include this new rule. It would also list the new Setup changes. I’m play-testing the new changes at this time, and all seems to be working very well. The German drive is indeed getting into France.
