Awaiting scramble orders for z111 and z110

[LuckyLindy]

no scrambling in either case.  ouch, FRA hurt!  :|

[DarthMaximus]

It was tricky figuring out what to bring with the scramble rules.  I wanted to do z109 too (I think that was the number, the spot with the UK dd/trn) but couldn’t figure out how to do it without the ftrs potentially messing me up somewhere.

this is also my first ever game of G40, so please bear with me.  will the soviets be collecting their NO #2 for controlling arc and 125 free of warships?  I think we should both try to update all NO’s on each map before the next player’s turn to help cut down on errors.

Cheers

Sounds good.  Oh, okay, we can learn together.  :-D

Might want to post in the discussion thread and ask Jen.  I’d guess yes, but I’m not sure if it only takes effect when Rus is at War.

[DarthMaximus]

It looks like it is no on collecting the NOs for some.  (need to be at war).
Here’s a post from the discussion thread

@Cmdr:

@DarthMaximus:

Russian question here on R1:

(Germany has not declared war yet)
Do the soviets collect their NO #2 for controlling arc and having z125 free of warships?

You cannot collect national objectives until you are at war.  So India does not collect theirs, Australia theirs, Russia theirs or America’s until they are at war on their respective boards.

America can collect theirs on their 3rd round if Japan/Germany/Italy have not declared war yet, since that is when you may declare war.

[LuckyLindy]

DM, I doubt I’m going to be able to keep up with the desired pace of Commander Jenn.  I have an extremely busy week of business coming up from Sept 10-19th or so, during which I will in all liklihood be unable to have the time to devote to learning G40 rules, let alone post to this game.  After that I should have plenty of time to delve in, but not before.  If that’s ok with you, then we can continue after the 19th, if not, I do not mind if you take the win here.

Cheers

[DarthMaximus]

No, I don’t mind the wait.  See you on the 19th.

[LuckyLindy]

OK, I’m ready to try to wade into this game but…  a few questions.

Right now, Germany is at war with the UK obviously.  But they are not at war with Russia?  I need to review the diplomatic rules obviously…  Where can I get my hands on the Alpha +2 rules?  Please post a link if you know one?

Cheers.

I still don’t understand these NO’s.  Why does Germany collect 5 for an NO that says Germany at war with European allies when they have not yet declared war?

I got them from Jen.  If you want to PM me your email I can forward the link to you.

I thought it was because they are at war with France and UK.  But I can review it.  I haven’t looked at the rules since my G1.
I’m sure we’ll both have a lot of questions.  :-)
