Rules Q&A
-
If the USA is not at war with Japan by the beginning of the collect income phase during the third turn, then the USA is immediately at war with Japan.
So the USA collects 50 from Western USA on it’s 3rd turn no matter what, right? So there no disadvantage to anyone declaring war after USA’s second turn, right?
If Japan captures West USA, does it collect 50 from it or 10? Is West USA a capital, i.e. does Japan get USA’s money in this case?

If you manage to capture West USA, the point is probably moot. As for Japan attacking US on J3… correct. If it’s a good move you have no reason not to. They will get the bonus anyway at the end of US3 even if you don’t.
-
Is the United States considered nuetral until attacked or declares war? Can the U.S. move it’s land units and airpower to territories controlled by the U.K.? They can’t go to Dutch territories so I assume they can’t go to U.K. territories?
-
The only restriction on moving unit to allied territory is moving them in china, which is considered an act of war, so US can’t do it but UK and ANZAC can.
-

Yes.
Can the U.S. move it’s land units and airpower to territories controlled by the U.K.? They can’t go to Dutch territories so I assume they can’t go to U.K. territories?
No, it can’t. Neutral countries can’t move units into other countries’ territories. This isn’t clear in the rules, but it will be in the FAQ.

Krieg, I can’t believe what I am reading …. :-o
The US can’t fly planes to Australia if she is not at war with Japan? Bloody hell, how was it possible this is not mentioned in the rulebook… :?

If this is true then the allies are even weaker than I thought.
I can’t believe the terrible quality of the rulebook. I am a fiscal advisor. If I get one letter wrong this could have big consequences. Therefore we check, check and doublecheck all our work.
Either they are all incompetent or they try to save money on the wrong things. -
I assume that if more than one allied player has units in the same land territory defending , that they all defend together, while they cannot attack together is clear in the rules.

It seems there are all sorts of rules coming out of the woodwork, but so far the only disadvantage would be that the U.S. can attack Japan on US3. Though I’m not sure if this would amount to any sort of threat that early in the game.
-
Now that the game has been released,
is it possible to download the rulebook?
I’ve ordered my copy,
but not sure I’ll get it before the end of the year…
:? -
In the rulebook in Phase 6: Collect Income it says " before you can actually recieve this income, you much check for any losses incurred by air and naval attacks against your shipping routes"
Then in the convoy section it doesnt mention anything about air units, only surface warships and subs. Obviously air units (on carriers for example) are not surface warships but do they count went totaling convoy disruptions or was it a mistake to mention them in the quote above?
-
If Japan captures West USA, does it collect 50 from it or 10? Is West USA a capital, i.e. does Japan get USA’s money in this case?
If Japan attacks, they are at war, so I’d say Japan takes a 50 IPCs territory. I guess it’s a capital and take the money, but anyway game is over if you manage such deed :-)
-
Air attacks simply refers to air units on carriers in the sea zone. The air units are included in the carrier’s convoy damage, as a carrier itself wouldn’t be able to damage much shipping. Rather than complicate the rules with things like “all surface warships except carriers cause one point of damage, and air units on carriers cause one each” or “only carriers with at least one air unit cause damage”, it was simplified to say that each surface warship causes a point regardless of type.

@Craig:
After a quick check of the AA40 Europe Rule Set (unofficial/playtest copy), I see that this situation was caught and edited to remove the “air” part of the statement.
Yes. This was done in order to avoid just this sort of confusion.
@Craig:
This goes back to Krieghund stating that there are a bit of typo/clarifications that will have to been put out concerning AA40 Pacific. Everyone needs to keep their panties from getting in a wad and wait patiently for Krieghund and Larry to get that info out.
Speaking of which, I’m working on the FAQ now. In in effort to facilitate that process, I’m going to stop answering rules questions and let you guys work them out for yourselves. I’ll only step in if you get to an impasse. That way, I’ll be better able to more quickly identify ambiguities in the rules.
I know there are some minor problems with the political rules, but this is the first A&A game that’s ever had them, so please bear with us. Due to the development schedule, some new issues came up with them while testing Europe after the Pacific rulebook had already been finalized. Many of the clarifications in the FAQ will deal with those issues. Of course, some of these are also just plain old mistakes. :oops:
@Craig:
Remember, they are just humans too! I know, it’s hard to believe, but trust me. I have proof of their mortalness. See my avatar.
They are nice guys (Larry most of the time! :wink: ) doing a great job of keeping us happy with new challenges.
Lies! All lies!! :wink:
-
Krieghund, Craig A Yope, I really appreciate your efforts in helping us clarify quite a lot of issues here. Thank you both. Can either of you confirm whether an offical FAQ is being put together as we speak?
-
Yeah, I’m working on it now. See my last post, above.

Excellent point… which reveals that it would actually behoove UK or ANZAC to attack Japan on their second turn, because it allows USA the opportunity to attack if it so chooses, and has no drawbacks whatsoever, am I wrong?
-
Moving a naval fleet into a seazone occupied only by an enemies transport, does this act put the naval forces into naval battle? or can the Naval fleet bombard the amphibious invasion since the transport does not have a defense value?
-
If Japan captures West USA, does it collect 50 from it or 10? Is West USA a capital, i.e. does Japan get USA’s money in this case (or is that even a rule in this game?)?
If Japan attacks, they are at war, so I’d say Japan takes a 50 IPCs territory. I guess it’s a capital and take the money, but anyway game is over if you manage such deed :-)
Do the rules not offer a clear answer?
It’s not necessarily a moot point: If Japan gets USA’s IPC in hand PLUS 50 IPC for capturing West USA, then sure, the game is as good as over. but if neither of those are the case, then the game is not necessarily over.

Air attacks simply refers to air units on carriers in the sea zone. The air units are included in the carrier’s convoy damage, as a carrier itself wouldn’t be able to damage much shipping.

So I’m not clear if that means the aircraft cargo inflict additional ‘damage’, or if they don’t. I’m guessing they don’t.
