@VictoryFirst Very good. Please see https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/issues/14440#issuecomment-4535730485 too. I think this issue urgently needs more attention, too.
In any case we need a solution that is compatible with both forums.

Combat Hit Differential Summary :
@jim010 gamed all day Saturday in real life with a buddy. Looked really good, then round 5 Allies did some damage. In the end, Euro was a bit of a draw, Pacific I needed one more victory city. Fun times. I like the board game version a great deal.
Nothing beats playing a live game with friends, snacks and beer.

And the Luftwaffe takes another beating
Are you able to land the Chinese fighter in Burma even though not officially allied with UK yet?
@jim010 said in Erinmores Allies +12 vs jim010 Axis:
Are you able to land the Chinese fighter in Burma even though not officially allied with UK yet?
I just stumbled over this question
Actually UK and China are allied from the beginning of the game.
Rulebook Pacific 1940.2, page 35:
“Germany, Japan, and Italy make up the Axis. For the moment, the United Kingdom (including Canada), ANZAC, France, and China make up the Allies. The United States and the Soviet Union are neutral.”
I can’t find anything to say China can’t, but they are not fully allied as UK is not allowed into China (page 8)
that’s supposed to say page 8
It’s not that big a deal.
@jim010 said in Erinmores Allies +12 vs jim010 Axis:

There are indeed movement restrictions applying here and there for powers not at war with another power. But that is independent from being allied or not. Only USA and Russia start as powers being neutral (not allied).
As I said, not a big deal
@jim010 China can land in Burma at any time in the game as my friends and I play it. And as Triple A does as well.
@jim010 but…chinese can only move onto the road for liberation. I’ve never seen anyone stack in there.
