Gustavo Adolfo II, lo que permite plantear este \u201cwhat if?\u201d en el juego como hist\u00f3ricamente posible, y que da una profundidad estrat\u00e9gica enorme a \u2018El Colapso\u2019 con una opci\u00f3n \u00fanica que no incluyen juegos del mismo per\u00edodo hist\u00f3rico.<br>\u00bfQu\u00e9 impacto tiene en \u2018El Colapso\u2019 aplicar este \u201cwhat if?\u201d?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Durante el paso de Selecci\u00f3n de l\u00edderes en la fase de planificaci\u00f3n al inicio de un turno (excepto en el primer turno de un escenario), los jugadores pueden elegir los l\u00edderes que entren ese turno seg\u00fan su nivel de prestigio que indica en tres niveles (alto, medio y bajo) como ha sido su turno anterior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Dentro del paso de Selecci\u00f3n de l\u00edderes, el jugador cat\u00f3lico a partir del turno 6 puede decidir aplicar este \u201cwhat if?\u201d, coincidiendo con el momento hist\u00f3rico del fallecimiento de Wallenstein.<br>A partir de este turno, si Wallenstein est\u00e1 en el mapa, el cat\u00f3lico tiene que decidir si quiere mantener a Wallenstein en el juego con algunos efectos de juego, y tiene 2 opciones:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mantener a Wallenstein en el mapa, y retirar del juego a la reserva a un l\u00edder del mapa, o no situar en el mapa, uno de los l\u00edderes que pueden entrar durante la siguiente Selecci\u00f3n de l\u00edderes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Eliminar de manera permanente a Wallenstein del juego, y situar el nivel de Prestigio del cat\u00f3lico inmediatamente en el primer valor de Prestigio alto.<br><strong>Estrategias de uso de Wallenstein en El Colapso<br>Opci\u00f3n 1: mantener a Wallenstein en el mapa<br><\/strong>\u2022 Pros: Wallenstein es probablemente uno de los l\u00edderes m\u00e1s importantes de la facci\u00f3n cat\u00f3lica en \u2018El Colapso\u2019, y sin duda el m\u00e1s importante para la naci\u00f3n de Austria en el juego. Por ello, suele ser interesante su uso durante el juego y mantenerlo, adem\u00e1s de ganar 2 puntos de prestigio extra mientras est\u00e9 juego.<br>\u2022 Cons: La decisi\u00f3n de mantener a Wallenstein en el mapa implica que uno de los generales en el mapa cada turno tengan que retirarse del juego, aunque podr\u00edan entrar en turnos posteriores durante el siguiente paso de Selecci\u00f3n de l\u00edderes pero si el prestigio es bajo esto suele ser una mala decisi\u00f3n porque obligatoriamente se debe retirar a un l\u00edder del juego.<br><strong>Opci\u00f3n 2: eliminar de manera permanente a Wallenstein del juego<br><\/strong>\u2022 Pros: Teniendo en cuenta que suele ser dif\u00edcil llegar al nivel alto de prestigio, el poder pasar al primer valor de ese nivel permite escoger hasta 3 l\u00edderes durante el paso de Selecci\u00f3n de l\u00edderes, lo que implicar\u00eda que al retirar a Wallenstein habr\u00eda dos l\u00edderes m\u00e1s. De otro modo, en prestigio medio solo puede entrar 1 l\u00edder, que teniendo en cuenta el mantener a Wallenstein implica que un l\u00edder no entre en juego no entrar\u00edan nuevos l\u00edderes, y en prestigio bajo no pueden entrar nuevos l\u00edderes e implicar\u00eda retirar obligatoriamente a otro l\u00edder del mapa.<br>\u2022 Cons.: el beneficio de pasar al primer valor de prestigio alto solo se produce una vez cuando se elimina permanentemente a Wallenstein, con lo que se ha de ajustar mucho el momento de esta decisi\u00f3n que s\u00f3lo se puede producir una vez. Adem\u00e1s, podr\u00eda ser que el nivel de prestigio fuese alto (suele ser dif\u00edcil de conseguir) y no ser beneficioso eliminar a Wallenstein.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Otras reglas y mejoras incluidas por testeadores<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Adem\u00e1s del \u201cwhat if?\u201d opcional de mantener a Wallenstein, que no es una regla obligatoria, sin\u00f3 que el jugador cat\u00f3lico debe tomar la decisi\u00f3n una vez (y s\u00f3lo una vez durante el juego) a partir del turno 6, durante el testeo de \u2018El Colapso\u2019 otras personas que han probado el juego me

in the game as historically possible, providing a great strategic depth to &#8216;The Collapse&#8217; with a unique option that doesn&#8217;t include games from the same historical period.<br>What impact does it have on &#8216;The Collapse&#8217; to apply this \u201cwhat if??<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>During the Leader Selection step of the planning phase at the start of a turn (except for the first turn of a scenario), players may choose the leaders entering that turn based on their prestige level which is listed in three levels (high, medium and low) as it has been his previous turn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within the leader selection step, the catholic player from turn 6 can decide to apply this \u201cwhat if?\u201d, following the historical Wallenstein\u2019 death.<br>From this turn, if Wallenstein is on the map, the Catholic has to decide if wants to keep Wallenstein in the game with some game effects and has 2 options:<br>1) Keep Wallenstein on the map, and remove a map leader from play to reserve, or not place on the map, one of the leaders that can enter during the next Leader Selection.<br>2) Permanently remove Wallenstein from the game, and immediately set the Catholic&#8217;s Prestige level to the first high Prestige value.<br><strong>Strategies for using Wallenstein in The Collapse<br>Option 1: Keep Wallenstein on the map<br><\/strong>\u2022 Pros: Wallenstein is probably one of the most important leaders of the Catholic faction in &#8216;The Collapse&#8217;, and certainly the most important for the nation of Austria. Therefore, it is usually interesting to use it during the game and maintain it, in addition to earning 2 extra prestige points while it is in play.<br>\u2022 Cons: The decision to keep Wallenstein on the map implies that one of the generals on the map each turn has to be removed from the game, although they could enter in later turns during the next step of Selection of leaders but if the prestige is low this usually be a bad decision because a leader currently on the map must be removed from the game.<br><strong>Option 2: Permanently remove Wallenstein from the game<br><\/strong>\u2022 Pros: Taking into account that it is usually difficult to reach the high level of prestige, being able to go to the first value of that level allows you to choose up to 3 leaders during the Leader Selection step, which would mean that when removing Wallenstein there would be two more leaders. Otherwise, in medium prestige only 1 leader can enter, which taking into account keeping Wallenstein implies that a leader does not enter the game, new leaders would not enter, and in low prestige new leaders cannot enter and it would imply the mandatory removal of another leader of the map.<br>\u2022 Cons: The benefit of moving to the first high prestige value only happens once when Wallenstein is permanently removed, so the timing of this decision that can only happen once has to be fine-tuned. Also, it could be that the prestige level is high (it&#8217;s usually hard to get) and removing Wallenstein is not beneficial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"3\">\n<li><strong>Other rules and improvements included by testers<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the \u00bb what if ? optional to keep Wallenstein , which is not an obligatory rule, but the catholic player must make the decision once (and only once during the game) starting from turn 6, during the test of &#8216;The Collapse&#8217; other people who have tested the game have suggested very interesting rules, modifications and adjustments that have helped to improve the game even more and that reflect the crucial importance of game testing and listen to ideas and suggestions for improvements from testers of those who bring improvements and added value to the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"663\" src=\"https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/The-CollapseMap100x65-3-1024x663.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4901\" srcset=\"https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/The-CollapseMap100x65-3-1024x663.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/The-CollapseMap100x65-3-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/The-CollapseMap100x65-3-768x497.jpg 768w, https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/The-CollapseMap100x65-3-1536x994.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/The-CollapseMap100x65-3-2048x1325.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong><em>Photo: Playtest map (not final) &#8216;The Collapse&#8217; (author: Donal Hegarty)<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Below, do I mention some of the more important changes by testers who have tweaked and improved the game, which I appreciate their help and recognize in &#8216;The Collapse&#8217; as the suggestion of \u201cwhat if? to keep Wallenstein from Ignacio Notario.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Higher losses and cost in a major battle (Paco Ronco)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adjustments to a strategic concept (Francisco Gradaille)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Geographic adjustments on the map (Tim Tigges)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dummy capabilities (playtesters at the Batalladores 2022 convention in Zaragoza)<br>Follow my blog at \u2018The Collapse\u2019 at NAC Wargames website and my twitter profile @HndezDaniel, for more news and progress on the game and the next open testing in vassal for anyone interested in the game.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/QR-code-to-reserve-The-Collapse-3-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4902\" srcset=\"https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/QR-code-to-reserve-The-Collapse-3-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/QR-code-to-reserve-The-Collapse-3-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/QR-code-to-reserve-The-Collapse-3-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/QR-code-to-reserve-The-Collapse-3-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/QR-code-to-reserve-The-Collapse-3-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/QR-code-to-reserve-The-Collapse-3-2048x2048.png 2048w, https:\/\/edicionesmasqueoca.com\/diarios\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/QR-code-to-reserve-The-Collapse-3-600x600.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong><em>Game QR code reservation photo<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4.
