• What is the starting income e.g. for Germany? 37 or 42 as they have reached one national objective already at the start?

  • Official Q&A

    Starting IPCs do not include any National Objective money.  You only receive that starting at the end of your first turn.


  • As a matter of clean-up to stuff already revealed…

    1. You still have Italy as a bonus for other countries. It is not. The only country that gets a bonus for holding Italy is Italy. And Italy only by holding other stuff + Italy.

    2. USA has 4 objectives, not 5. The last ??? can be deleted.

    3. UK has 3 objectives, not 4. I think the “Big K” already said which one was incorrect earlier.

    @squirecam:

    1. UK has 3 objectives, not 4. I think the “Big K” already said which one was incorrect earlier.

    Nope.  I nixed a fifth one that’s been removed.  All I’ve done with the remaining four is confirm that the first one’s correct.


  • /squirecam

    Ok, updated. You seem to have quiet good notes from GENCON, care to elaborate?

    /Krieghund

    I think I have confirmation on the first three US objectives, I’m not sure if you made these confirmations but maybe some were from Squirecam or Herr Arnulfe.

    Also, Imperious Leader has added on the Fact thread a soviet objective that is similar to the german, i.e.;

    Controlling at least 3 of the following territories: Baltic States, East Poland, Ukraine, Eastern Ukraine and/or Belorussia= 5 IPC.

    Is this correct and my suggestion wrong?


  • @Lynxes:

    (Libya+Egypt+Anglo-Egypt Sudan+Transjordan+Italian Africa=5 IPCs)

    @ Big “K”: Ist this correct? I would rather say it would be “historical correct” without TRJ.

    Yes, I confirmed them.

    Imperious has apparently erroneously assigned this one to the USSR in addition to Germany.

    I was going to do a Japanese one today, but I’ll do this one instead.

    @Lynxes:

    Italy

    (Libya+Egypt+Anglo-Egypt Sudan+Transjordan+Italian Africa=5 IPCs)

    Italy gains 5 IPCs if Axis powers control at least 3 of the following territories: Egypt, Trans-Jordan, France and/or Gibraltar.


  • @Krieghund:

    Is there a forth japanese goal or is one of the three incorrect?

  • Official Q&A

    I’ve only confirmed one of the Japanese Objectives so far.  Maybe Lynxes should mark the ones I’ve confirmed with an asterisk or something?


  • @Krieghund:

    I think this one is a little incorrect: Manchuria+Kiangsu [Shanghai region]+French Indo-China/Thailand=5 IPCs

    I assume that you have to hold Formosa as well to obtain that bonus.


  • @Krieghund:

    @Lynxes:

    Japan

    Manchuria+Formosa+French Indo-China=5 IPCs

    Actually, this is Manchuria, Kiangsu (which contains Shanghai) and French Indo-China/Thailand.


  • You are pretty close on alot of these. As I said before, some of these are correct, its just you have the amount off. (What I mean is, you need # of _ instead of having to take all of them)

    I would also suggest you * those “Big K” had confirmed.

    Canada has to fit somewhere in your UK bonuses.

    USSR only has 2 objectives (something discussed above).


  • @Lynxes:

    UK

    Allied control of any Japanese 1941 at-start territory [Manchuria & Kiangsu are Japanese-controlled Chinese territories]= 5 IPCs.

    Does “territory” also apply to zero-IPC islands like lwo Jima or Carloline Islands?

    Hmm, that makes things considerably more interesting.  Japan is not going to be able to strip the Carolines and Iwo Jime of troops because of the Allied IPC bonus, which means that Japan is going to be strapped for infantry and transports, and now transports have to be escorted.  Iwo Jima is one move from the US West Coast.  Krieghund, will destroyers be able to carry one infantry unit in this game, or is that not going to be allowed?  Also, is this bonus per territory captured, i.e. 5 IPC per territory captured, or 5 IPC as long as you capture one without regard to total captured?

    That was a revised NA, and there arent any in this game, so I doubt it.

    5 IPCs total if one or more is held.


  • Some more infos about the national objectives today? Probably the total number of them and the figures for each country?

    On a day where the US (markets) create so much turmoil, one should release some good news to satisfy the world :wink:!

    No, a tech today - another National Objective next time.
