Tactical Bombers & Air superiority

Huh? How in worlds would one keep track of such a mechanic lol  :lol:
Aircraft only get the bonus if they share a tt with an airbase
If there is not an airbase in a tt then no aircraft get the bonus movement out of that tt

I’m kind glad they released Pac at X-mas (test run). Hopefully our feedback and more internal testing will make for a better global game when you combine them. Keep in mind many of the political rules have went through a transformation that will aid in the upcoming game. If they released it as one game this summer, many of the problems that have come up over the last few months would still need to be fixed.

no.

it seems like no one is answering the threads question.

japan initial purchases are transports, then subs and destroyers to keep usa back. they have enough tacs already
china they can not purchase tacs
uk needs to buy ground units
anzac needs to buy cheap naval units
usa is the only country that i would even consider a tac purchase. then give my head a shake and realize that i need more important units.

I wouldn’t go to house rules as an option. Its a tough time for the allies, but you have to counter. If they build carriers, try building a bunch of subs. Their cheap to take hits, almost 3 to 1 cost of a carrier to dodge bullets. If you attack chances are you can ding the carriers and take out DD’s, and your allies can finish the job before Jap can fix them. Try to set up 3 fleets, all similar so if they attack one, you can counter a weakened Jap fleet with the other 2 before they repair. As for the Asian ground battle 3 IC would be tough. I’ve seen 2 and that was a bitch. It is easier for the UK if Jap has air, because its hard for them to protect newly taken tt. If they are dropping that much $ in tanks though ($6 a pop) like $40-$50 ipc they can’t be putting to many DD’ or other cheap ships into their navy making it more vulnerable IMO.

thanks for the clarification

I still think that something using toilet paper tubes as the fuselage and cereal box lids as wings would be more in spirit with all the cardboard WOTC gave us in this release.  That and the size would be appropriate for the board.

Ok thats what i wanted to know 8-)

The only thing I thought would be needed as far as replacing chits for plastic pieces would be the AA. The bases and factories I don’t mind having as chits, but the AA I would think has to be a piece because it can move.
