Whats your highest Japan IPC count for territories in standalone AAP40 ?

@Private:

Keep counting AB. There is no maximum. :-)

Thank you.

@Fatespinner:

I find it quite difficult to keep China from being killed. How would you suggest doing it?

It’s pretty much impossible to keep China alive if Japan focuses on them.  It’s more about prolonging death and being annoying than not dying.

@Warplayer12:

America has a NO that give them 5 ipc each round they control the Philippines

So you take a 2 IPC island on round 1, then give America extra IPC for: Alaska, Mexico, Continental United States for 2 rounds?  That’s a net gain for the Americans of 16 IPC.

:? :? :?

My bad, saw the 1940 title, but you do bring them into the war and give them whatever objectives Pacific allows specifically.  I’m sure there is at least one for Hawaii and others, and I think there is that 30 IPC one for W. USA.  So it’s even worse.

Wrong board

They can declare war on each other whenever they want; and there’s no war if they don’t

How is this the wrong one, it’s on the Pacific 40 board.

There needs to be a AAG40 board.

Because in P40, USSR doesn’t exist.

I agree, but for now europe includes global

bumped for mrblack trying to do kuf

sorry i bumped the wrong thread. will bump correct thread

Thanks, not really a big deal.

I’m now somewhat curious about the reasons for the “under protection” wording.

Why not just:

Dutch like power whose capital is controlled by enemy
except UK/ANZAC can take control

If UK/ANZAC provokes war, Japan is free to attack the UK/ANZAC and take Dutch territories, without bringing the US into the war.

@Omega:

Say you are planning a huge battle, but only have, say 3 Aircraft carrier. Can you still launch more fighter? (over 6) or can you only launch IF there is, at the moment of the attack, a place to land? (So in our example, since we only have 6 landing spot, we can only launch 6 to attack)

Robert

I’m pretty sure: you can only launch as many planes as would potentially have a landing spot at the end of the noncombat move phase assuming all units survived combat.  Even an CV that is entering combat can be considered a potential landing space for any fighter.  If one or more CVs do not survive combat, and there are more FIGs/TACs than what can land, then some of the aircraft will die for lack of landing area.

The fllet goes to Pearl, but not the planes.  The rest of teh planes & bombers on Kwangtung on an airbase gives the dual adjantage of hitting yunnan with all airpower and hitting an allied fleet if it ventures in range.

It seems no one else is playing this way.  I am curious to see how this would play out against the strategies being used out there right now (with no bid).  Someone play against me PBEM?

PS - I find it amusing that someone is giving me -1 karma every time I post.  It is good to see that even without trying I can deeply affect someone’s psyche.  I really can make a difference  :-D!
