well knowing the rules is part of the game… I’ve lost a couple games on rules I wasn’t 100% familiar with…
-

Yes only an escort is needed to land. If a fighter scrambles and sub fights, then the sub must be killed for landing to occur.
-
well in case you just waiting for me to move, I was waiting for a response. I’m fine with edits for the current turn if made prior to my move, but not for a prior nation’s move after I already moved my turn. I’d understand and allow it if I moved right away and didn’t give you a chance to edit, but I didn’t move for a couple days after your turn. so basically if you want the edit we’ll have to ask for a call on it. otherwise I’ll move without edits for any of the non-japanese units. again just fyi, I’ve made the same sub mistake before, and on other rule issues LOST 2 games because I didn’t know the rules well enough. losing rome is annoying but not a game breaker for you since you are in total command of the game thus far.
-
If you want to ask for a call go ahead.
The bottom line is there is no way I leave the capital open if I think there is any possibility you can walk in.
The reason it’s a fair edit is this would never ever happen in a f2f game. You basically acknowledge that you saw I was misinterpreting the rules and that there would be no opportunity if we both had the same understanding of the rules.
If it was a small issue that would be one thing but this is a potential game-decider.
If your case is that the Russian turn would have been different if the tactical had been ncmed to Southern Italy in the German turn, then by all means replay your Russian turn.
-
hey guys - commander jenn is who would be making the call on this and she’s not been on for 5 days. if it’s any help, i pretty much know how she would rule on this case.
-
Bottom line zhuk is free to ask pretty please with cherries on top but the decision is hobos. The ruleset is fully in hobos corner to deny as he sees fit.
-
Well this is pretty uncomfortable as I play this game for fun and this isn’t fun. I respect Hobo’s expertise at A&A but we don’t seem to see eye to eye on this. I gotta think about whether I want to wait for Jen. For the moment, at least let me revise the Japanese ncms to reflect the drastically altered circumstances of the game should the ruling go against me.
Hey Bold if the ruleset is clear can you refer me to the language you’re thinking of?
-
from the 2015 league rules thread:
9 – Order of Play – From page 11 of the rulebook: “Axis and Allies is played in rounds. � A round consists of each power taking a turn. � Your power’s turn consists of six phases, which take place in a fixed sequence. � When you finish the Collect Income phase, your turn is over. � Play then passes to the next power.”
You may not go back to previous phases/turns of the game and make changes without your opponent’s permission. -
gentlemen, i can relate to the position each of you is in as I have been in both before.
most recently, in my playoff game with ghost. my game was effectively over when he attacked my z97 combined axis fleet when i forgot he had the range to do so with bombers from london. i have known this in the past, just plain overlooked it. that fleet was way underpowered and had 4 transports and was the entire key to an initiative into northern africa and the middle east. when it sank it was over for axis.
i realized he could hit my fleet a power or two before he made the attack, but I didn’t ask to change my turn. i didn’t ask to change it.
and yet it is also true that i would not have left my fleet in harm’s way if i realized he could sink it.
it’s part of the game we play and love - sometimes we forget something we once know or make mistakes.
as i said, i think it’s up to hobo and hobo, having made similar mistakes in the past seems inclined not to go back in time.
cheers

I am not the rules deputy but I had many many fruitful discussions with gamerman about the rules.
I can just second Bold’s post. It is up to hobo to decide to take the map without German air in Rome or with a tac there, totally up to him.
One could argue that this is kind of the spice of the game, the fact players keep playing although the position is bad, maybe kind of an analogy to chess.
You can have a technical winning position in chess which every engine would win 100% of the time but in chess there are no discussions about blunders. If they happen, they happen and there wouldn’t be arguments about it.The same applies for A&A. Although I believe that that pill is way harder to swallow as a chess game takes usually several hours, while a A&A game can take several days, thus the price-tag on a severe blunder is brutally high in A&A.
However this currently s the common opinion of the community to accept and to embrace that fact.
