@axis-dominion:

Place Units - Russians
            1 aaGun and 2 infantry placed in Volgograd

How do you have units to mobilize?

[axis-dominion]

Bought and saved them before losing moscow.

[wheatbeer]

I am pretty sure the rules do not permit that.

[axis-dominion]

I was just looking through the rules and I do not see anything explicitly prohibiting placing existing units even if your capital has been taken over. If you know of the rule, can you cite it?

[wheatbeer]

“The player skips all but the Combat Move, Conduct Combat, and Noncombat Move phases until the capitol is liberated”

page 22, Capturing and Liberating Capitols, in the 4th paragraph

[axis-dominion]

hmm, ok, well how shall we resolve this?

I could’ve placed 3 units in volgograd, for example, and you wouldn’t have been able to just take it with one of your cars. The rest would have had to go on Moscow, which you’d then just attack and they’d at least hit back. Shall we roll for those battles then? Let me know.

[wheatbeer]

I could roll the units in Moscow retroactively and remove the casualties.

I can’t roll the units in Volgograd retroactively because if I had to fight there I would have had to send some fighters/tacts whose noncombat movement would have been impacted (they landed in Berlin which would not have been possible if they attacked Volgograd).

I will offer one of two solutions:

A. Retroactively mobilize the full Buy on Moscow and I will roll your defensive hits and remove however many hits among my German infantry in Bryansk.

B. Keep 3 units of the original Buy on Volgograd and I will roll defensive hits for the other part of your Buy and remove however many hits among my German infantry in Bryansk.

If neither of those options are acceptable, then we’ll need to seek arbitration.

[axis-dominion]

ok option B. Keep what I just placed on volgograd, and roll for my 5 inf I would’ve placed in moscow.

Thanks, and sorry about that. i’ll know better from now on.

[wheatbeer]

Ok doke

Rolls: 5@2; Total Hits: 45@2: (2, 5, 1, 2, 1)

[wheatbeer]

Ouch  :lol:

[axis-dominion]

Lmao

[axis-dominion]

By the way, how do you roll like that? I don’t see the option in tripleA. Is there another program you use?

[wheatbeer]

The forum currently has a couple of built-in dice features.

Remove the question marks from the examples below (had to add something to interrupt it so the format is visible rather than just rolling):

:?aaa 5@2:

This format automatically uses six sided dice, the first number is the number of dice you want to roll and the second number is the highest number that will count as a hit.

You can roll more than one set of dice like so

:?aaa 1@2 3@3 2@4:

I’m going to bed, but I’ll edit that before I do Japan tomorrow.

[axis-dominion]

Wow that’s so cool, thank you for the tip! I’m going to do some test rolls now.
