The current funding curve allows P1 to get an Arty on day 5 for ABaBA vehicle order (or baseskip for tank). P2 can do one city skip and keep this tank order, but I'm not seeing anything overly OP (a cheeky Com Tower cap attempt likely won't work). So overall I think P1 has a bit of an advantage due to the funding curve.

This should be fixable with slight property adjustments. I'm also not sure about the city distribution in general (seems like some bases have more safe caps than others, but it does heavily depend on player choices how safe the caps actually are, so I would give it the benefit of the doubt).

2nd review: So on 2nd examination I think the Arty thing is fine (until proven otherwise) because to build an Arty, P1 sacrifices a double tank on the next turn. The interactions with the Com Towers and airports may be slightly problematic as both are very easily threatened (but on the other hand also very easily defensible) so I'd give that the benefit of the doubt, too. The Com Tower lines may be more problematic but I'd really have to see test games to say for sure.

So I think it's good enough to test it out in A-rank.
