Mhh, not happy with my US turn in hindsight.
The TT in sz42 should have been sunk by a US fighter and I should have done SBR on Malaya with on US Bomber :-/
But in the end still happy about still having more TUV on the map (despite this will get close after the Ger and JP buys in the next round) and the path to a VC-victory is at least not completely deterministic yet (at least to what I see^^). I will keep fighting as long as there is work to do for the Axis :-)

Just for the record: this was a (slightly simplified) 8/8 @2 from 2 opponents in a RU12 and a UK1.
I just need to write that down to keep mind that my opponent’s dices by definition can only get worse from here :lol:
You mean they can’t get better!
They could stay the same! :lol:
True, so I just hope this is not gonna happen^^
Well, I was getting perfect dice (I think) until I lost a bomber to a Chinese artillery
I can’t remember for sure, but I don’t think China can control (collect income) from Hong Kong when India is in Axis hands. There is an ambiguous statement in the rulebook, but it says in two places that Hong Kong and Burma can not be controlled by China, so I’m going by that.
Yes, perfect dice for first 4 battles, but then you started getting luckier :)

I can’t remember for sure, but I don’t think China can control (collect income) from Hong Kong when India is in Axis hands. There is an ambiguous statement in the rulebook, but it says in two places that Hong Kong and Burma can not be controlled by China, so I’m going by that.
Hey Gamerman, are you sure about that? Could you refer to and quote the statements which do not allow China to control Kwangtung at all? I really don’t want to be squeezy or so because I could benefit from China controlling Kwangtung or Burma, however the only words in the rulebook I could find about that to my understanding clearly state the opposite:
Pacific rulebook page 10.
However, Kwangtung
and Burma are special cases. Although they are not Chinese
territories, Chinese forces can move into them. These are
the only non-Chinese territories that Chinese units can
occupy. China can even temporarily control them, but only
if it recaptures them from the Axis while India is under Axis
control
The same is mentioned in the box on the map. To me this really sounds like China can collect income from them if India is under Axis control and in case India would get liberated I would assume them to be converted to UK Pac then.
I btw know that this means nothing, but TripleA allows china to at least control Burma as happened in Wheatbeer vs Bold:
http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=32023.75
Just in case they would not be allowed I would inform them just to spread the news and maybe another bug on the list.
But still, currently I would believe they can control them under the given circumstances in our game.
http://www.wizards.com/AvalonHill/rules/AVL1940_RuleBook.pdf
The copy of the 2nd edition rulebook that I am looking at on the Avalon Hill website does not have the statements you describe. Also, China is on page 9 and not on page 10. We are not looking at the same rulebook.
OK, I found my original Pacific rule book and I see I have penciled in there that Krieghund said that China can indeed control Hong Kong and Burma when India is in Axis hands.
I guess you will be walking in and picking up an easy 3 IPCs then.
Thanks for clarification. I attached a screenshot of the rulebook I was referring to
Rulebook
–- Pacific 1940 —
Second
Edition
Of course bit weird there are different rulebooks out there. Which one are you referring to? Is there a link? I can not upload mine because it is 87 MB
I already provided the link - it’s at the beginning of my previous post!
