I guess my war with the mongols granted the allies the ability to walk into spain? I am learning something new everyday! I guess I should have just attacked Russian and had the mongols dow on the axis……

More mistakes!!

[666]

how many men did spain have on it. Yikes that might have been a catastrophe!

[boldfresh]

@Boldfresh:

:-o :-o

yeah, spain in allied hands… there’s a gift for you Karl!

[666]

wait a minute you got turkey too! OMG……

I don’t understand, why did you get argentina, turkey, spain etc but not sweden etc???

I thought I was just invading the mongols. And I did that just cause i didn’t have much else to do with my AF…

help

[boldfresh]

even though the axis is huge, i’m going to go ahead and call this game for karl simply due to the allied foothold in spain.  :|

turkey didn’t help you either but at least you can crush it.

the way the true neutrals work is if you attack one the rest become “pro allied” that means they have to be unlocked in noncombat by an advancing allied ground unit.

[Karl7]

Mongolia is true neutral unless the USSR attacks neighboring Japan territories or Japan attacks the USSR neighboring territories.

You did not mean to do that?

Hm, well, do you want to take it back?

Activating the neutrals did bring back into the game after that dice rout of trying to invade Germany which put you in the lead.

I didn’t know that all the neutrals would be “unlocked”, but my ignorance of the rules, which is displayed, apparently every round,  :| shouldn’t be an excuse I guess.

I really didn’t have many other targets with my J air force and I said (to myself) what the hell, if I am going to go into Russia, which I did plan, I might as well attack the mongols before they turn against me, nice plan huh, but I didn’t know the full consequences of that decision.

it is my fault, I am going to take a bit of a reprieve for my games and read the all rules. Is there a place where I can download the most current rules?

@Karl7:

really?  try downloading it first

question: on SBR runs against IC’s, NB & AB’s, if an AB is present, and damaged less than 3, defending fgt’s can intercept and any accompanying (escort) attacking fgt’s (ONLY?) can defend the bmb’s (not tac’s? right?) so for 1 round, the escort fgt’s roll a (1) to hit and the intercepting fgt’s roll a (1-2) to hit, correct? BMB’s don’t participate.

In the rules, it seemed that tac’s weren’t able to bomb or escort or intercept, is this correct. My confusion with this is one reason I don’t do it. Thanks

and those rules, didn’t seem to have much info on neutrals, etc…seemed like OOB rules which I read and was helpful. :) I appreciate your lessons. I will get back to the game soon.

Lesson #1 don’t dow on the TRUE neutrals!! I won’t forget that one! YIKES.

no JWW.  AB’s allow scrambling to a sea zone or zones and add one movement point to aircraft taking off from that territory if the AB is functional (less than 3 damage).  you do not need a functioning AB or and AB at all to intercept.

only fighters can intercept.  in the air battle, which occurs before bombers are assigned to their targets, the participants are all intercepting fighters and ALL escorting fighters, tacs, and strats that have been sent to the territory.  all attacker planes roll together and roll at 1.  all interceptors then roll at a 1.  the attacker can choose their casualties however they wish.

THEN the bombers are assigned to targets (escorts are then just bystanders and take no aa fire).  once bombers are assigned, then aa fire (and any casualties) is handled separately for each base/IC.  (tripleA does not handle this correctly so you must either roll separately for each base/IC on the aa.org dicey or you can assign an order to the dice rolled on tripleA to correspond with each base/IC.

[Karl7]

The rules for neutrals are on pp. 10-11.
