@gamerman01 Everything OK? Japan is ready to cause chaos in Asia š

Aughhh! Yeah, 6 days already
I was coming to post an update and not quite in time before you ask whatās up!
Hard at work, wiped in the evenings last week but that will get better very soon. Have to do volunteer work tonight after work work, but then things slow down.
This weekend was a ton of celebrating for my 50th birthday, so Iāll be back at the A&A game board soon!
Used up all my birthday luck on the game of Life Friday night. Man, it was a slaughter. I can only get them to play a board game with me once a year.

No worries pal! Sometimes life just gets in the way! And congratulations on your birthday! I actually noticed the 49 becoming a 50 at your profile page but I wasnāt sure when that happened lol. The last time I looked at your profile was yesterday and the time before that was a couple of weeks ago and then it was 49. So I deduced your birthday must have been in mid/late may or early june š
Take as long as you need, our game doesnāt walk away!

I edited men from Yakut to Evenki and Novo to comply with 15 infantry stack rule during combat movement.
I made a note that at the end of the turn I have 14 stacks, because it is helpful for you to know that too.
I hit 86 income, so the USA must take at least 2 IPCs of territory for the Allies to stay alive. That will be no problem for you at all, but in being a sportsman I alert you so no surprises, and you need to know youāre in a danger zone for round 5.
@The_Good_Captain The rulebook is not entirely clear to me on this critical issue. On page 4 at the beginning it says after your finish the 6th action, your TURN is over. When every player takes an Action Sequence turn, a ROUND of play is over.
Page 2 says "combined production of 84 IPCS at the end of one complete ROUND of play (meaning every player has had a turn).I am quite sure that means after the USA, but it does not say āafter the USAā, and a round could be interpreted to mean the other 4 powers still get to play.
So I need to be 100% sure, obviously.
Your total grasp of the Classic rules really is impressive. Thanks for another assist. -

No, I was thinking the threshhold was 85, but itās 84. USA has to take 3 IPCās of territory, so if you take France youāre still alive, or of course, Mexico and Alaska.

And that feature that counts units is FANTASTIC!!

@VictoryFirst did you make a feature for classic that has to do with stack count?
-
@gamerman
If on Japanās turn, the Axis hit 85 IPC, the USA must take back 3 or the game is over. The Russians cannot do it in accordance with the rules.
Yes, you can win with a Japanese ālungeā if the USA player isnāt attentive. Nice ācheckā by the way. I do the same thing. 10/10 for sportsmanship.

Thanks! I wish I could just type @The_Good_Captai(n) in 1990 and the rules expert genie would pop out and give me the rules answers!
Yes, Victory_First or a friend of his whipped up the unit count check not long ago. It went off when I was doing combat move and ended the phase and I had 16 stacks. Itās too bad it doesnāt show a constant count of everything, but this is waaaaay better than nothing.
Thanks for the quick confirmation.
It wasnāt a total lunge because I let Egypt go as I think heās going to take France anyway. Thanks for the props, means a lot. -
Is this game still running?
-
@Martin @Ragnell804 @gamerman01
Iām gettinā the itch to play some more classic!
-
@The_Good_Captain someoneās striving to reach the final š

@gamerman01 Hi, sorry but I have to concede our game. Iāve become too busy to play A&A games. I will be gone for a couple more months. I hope to return soon though. But the tournament must go on.
I will concede our G40 game as well, unless you are OK with putting that on hold until I come back again. But I would be willing to give you the victory. It has been on hold for a very long time.
Good luck with your games! Hope you are doing well š
-
Thanks @VictoryFirst , itās our loss that we canāt play with you for awhile.
Thanks for the go ahead on the G40, and donāt worry about the tournament because the other guys were cool
I wish the best to you, and will be great when you come back
-
Hi, I know this is an old game. But I have looked at it and I think it is still very interesting. Would you like to continue this as a friendly match? I think the Allies might be able to turn the tides here!
-
Absolutely, that will be fun,
Your move
-
Looking at it for a second -
You probably wonāt miss this but since itās been 1/2 a year -
The USA must take 3 IPCs of territory back or the Allies lose right now.
-
@gamerman01 You are the best!!
