So what is the situation with England getting two builds and France one? Well the English will be tempted to build Fleets in EDI and London while the French would most likely be looking at Army Paris to bolster Burgundy and make the possible shift to Ruhr and a follow up from Paris. However that also means that France is looking at facing TWO English fleets on the Channel with the very real temptation for the English to take advantage of the limited French fleet position.
3. The French player and the English player should agree that in the event that England gets two builds that one of them should be ARMY London and not Fleet London. Remember that in most Face to Face games and especially Tournament FtF events you cannot negotiate after Fall Adjudication and BEFORE adjustments. This is not something that should be left unspoken of in the Fall planning.
4. What is happening on the rest of the board also plays into this. The move of the Army to Wales means that things can get a little strange if Russia drops an Army Moscow to St.Petersburg since England would have to use both its fleets to take Norway or take a risk. Then would England want to start a war with Germany when they have to face an obvious hostile Russia?
