  • Is it a triple a bug when Vichy France is triggered in Round two after France turn?

    No, it is intentional

    @variance:

    On the topic of league health, I don;t know how to quantify this, but my impression is that there are still some very top player and some pretty lowly players, but the “middle class” seem to be disappearing.  Its no fun for the lower player to just get beat senseless by very senior players.

    Hahahahah but it’s SO much fun obliterating the little people in the community until they get better :) :) :) :)

    Sorry should have been more clear.
    After France Turn 2, the Vichy rule applied all over a sudden.
    It should trigger after Fra R1, right?

    Wrong thread but Vichy can be triggered on the first turn that the conditions are met. If the conditions aren’t met turn F1 but are met turn F2, it will be triggered at the latter point.


  • Thank you Simon.

    Game Consequences of Franco-German Armistice

    French Territorial Control: At the beginning of France’s first turn in which Armistice conditions are met, all originally French territories not already under Axis control immediately change ownership to Pro-Axis Neutrals, except: (1) French Equatorial Africa; (2) New Hebrides; (2) any French territories containing non-French allied land units.

    I had the impression that Turn 1 is critical in order to get vichy, after that it is gone.
    So triple a handled it correctly in my game and I can proceed now.

    That is partly true. If Vichy is triggered on a later turn, the French ships will have moved, some of the French infantry will have left French territory (French West Africa and Syria) and there is also a chance that allies will have landed on other French territory to block Vichy on those territories, so the value is much lower to the Axis.


  • I was just surprised that Vichy came to Effect after France 2.
    Italy destroyed the Fleet off of Toulon and the units only in S.Fra…
    Learned something new.

    I’ve been considering advertising for this place in some of the Facebook gaming groups I’m in.  Don’t know if it’ll help, but can’t hurt, right?

    Also, does the site look odd to anyone else?  I’m still using CHrome, and for the last few weeks, it’s been sort of ugly.  Hard to read quotes because there’s no box anymore, that sort of thing.  Just me?

    Site looks normal to me. and great that you advertise the league through the channels you have. :)

    has anyone noticed a  glitch where, after landing a fighter on an allied carrier, it no longer participates in conflict?

    In one of my first games in the league a couple of months ago I had landed an anzac fighter on a US carrier. In a subsequent ANZAC turn I attacked and was unable to use that fighter in the combat moves. In a current game, I had a UK fighter land on a US carrier. I then moved it to Normandy. When the Germans attacked, it did not participate.

    Had a rough LOGO made for the league!  Let me know what you guys think.

  • '17 '16 '15 '14 '12

    powerful design.  maybe some more colours?  Could the tanks be a Tiger on the Left and a T-34 on the right?

  • '15 '14

    Nice job Garg.

    What is the purpose for it? How can you/we use it?

  • Liaison TripleA '11 '10

    I am working with Djensen and Gamerman01 on a campaign to bolster the league’s size and capabilities :)

    Having a logo - however simple, will go a long way as part of the advertising via newsletter, site news, and banner (hopefully).


  • It is a Mk  IV, Variance, with a 75mm/42. Turret too far back though. Can’t see a T34.

  • '17 '16 '15 '14 '12

    I was thinking he could put a Tiger on one side and T-34 on the other but its fine

    No. Just tried it out and it seems to work correctly. Perhaps there was some edit mode stuff up?

    I am glad to hear that, this is much appreciated Garg. Thanks a lot for your effort in this!

    No, I’ve also never seen this or even heard anyone say it
