our small group changed the game a lot
We ended up blowing up two Soviet fuel and ammo dumps on the way out of Kalisz and killing the Army commander - so there went a lot of the pursuit of the 5th and hamstrung some of the Soviet offensive
We took the Baron out completely at Warsaw - thus changing the canon
We gave the Madonna to the Free Polish Congress - again changing the canon
Our GM changed the Texas and Submarine scenarios so both played out very different from canon with very small tweaks
So what we as players went thru and did is totally different from canon - due to our actions and with a small amount of tweaks from the GM we ended up with the US taking back a lot of Texas, the USN having four SSN's rejoining their fleet to add to the Christi which was never lost to Carlucci, and changing what happened in Poland so much that we couldnt do the Return to Europe modules even if we wanted to
plus keep in mind - there is nothing in the game that says you have to adhere to canon once the game begins - after the Escape from Kalisz begins everything your people do potentially changes the whole scenario
especially in a world where now a few men can make a huge difference
