@insanehoshi

yes you are right, i had in my head what happens when Germany declares war on a neutral country.

again, correct about resolving carpet bombing first. my bad.

@hbg-gw-enthusiast I would just add italicised texta clause saying something on the lines of “aircraft may not be placed on carriers during the place units phase” in that section, and a clause saying “newly built carriers may not be used to guarantee landing spots for fighters and tactical bombers.”
It is rather obvious is you look for it, but I think a FAQ or a additional clause is needed.

@insanehoshi Yea i memorized 85 useless different unit types, but i was talking about new players, and also seeing the values helps calculate combat more quickly. With counters i can easily add in the 15 bonus unit types that are also useless.

Regarding lend-lease, I do not think that it is explicitely stated in the v3 Rules, but some of the wording suggests that multiple lend-lease can be performed in the same turn, provided that it goes to eligible nations, according to each National Reference Sheet.

Specifically, Rule 7.9 mentions: “Major Powers may send lend-lease to other Major and Minor Powers. This can be either military units or IPPs.”

It also mentions in the “Production” subsection that you “Purchase the unit during the Production Phase and place in on the Production Chart with the receiving nations roundel underneath it.”

Finally, rule 11.4 mentions in the “Over Land Zones Delivery Process” that “The lend-lease stops in the first land zone in the receiving nations Home Country”.

The use of plural in all these rules suggests that there may be more than one receiving nation at a time.

@GeneralHandGrenade Got it, thanks GHG! Sorry if came off as combative, was certainly not the intention if I did. I just wanted to be sure on the rule myself too! I see the logic, will take some getting used to for sure to remember that, as it might not be considered intuitive, but I definitely get the thought process! Thanks for that!

No worries I agree with you that it’s better to know now than 6 months from now when everything is printed and distributed to the whole community. It’s a stressful time for the rules people trying to put the finishing touches on the game, especially with all that’s going on in the world around us. We all have lives outside of the game that have been disrupted and most of us have been quarantined in our homes but we are all doing our best. Thanks for helping us out not only with that but with all of the other helpful suggestions. I take everything I read from these forums plus comments on my channel and pass them along to help make it a better game. In the end it will be a game that was created with the help of the whole community. We can all take a bit of the credit for the end product.

Based on the maps drawn on pages 6 and 60 of the beta rules for V3 Istanbul is entirely in the Middle East, and therefore has a rail movement of 1.
