I’ve been looking to play G40 but haven’t really found anyone. Let me know if you want to play that too.

I guess on Classic I should be posting USA, or the summary doesn’t show up. I know some players like to see that summary, maybe checking the game from their phones or something. I hope it’s not an annoyance to you -
Talk later

Game is off the hook
Rulebook says “in the rare case that you captured an enemy capital while your capital was under enemy control…”
lol, ok if you say so
-
@gamerman01 Oh yeah are we playing with that Total Victory rule? In order to win you need to control all of your capitals?
-
Thanks for clarifying,
I’m fairly sure we are playing by the rulebook and clarifications except what the Good Captain has laid down, like no neutrals, Russia restrictedSo page 2 says Allies have to take both capitals, Axis have to take 2 out of 3, or Axis economic of production level > 84 at the end of one complete round of play. (I don’t know if that means a complete round after hitting 84, or if it means at the end of USA turn)
So at a glance, no you don’t have to have all your own capitals, so once Russia takes Germany, each of us needs one more capital - I don’t need Russia and you don’t need Germany :O
The 84 is interesting, apparently a downed Axis power’s remaining land still counts.
@The_Good_Captain how is “end of one complete round of play” interpreted? End of USA always?

I would like to concede our tournament game. My moves might have resulted in the capture of Moscow but I definitely missed the Russian flanking movement that will result in the capture of Berlin! With that, the game is essentially Japan against UK/USA, whose incomes double that of Japan’s, so definitely a losing battle. After having captured Berlin, the Russians will just move back to Moscow, retaking many IPC territories meaning an economic victory is also out of the question!
If Japan was a little stronger I might have had a chance, but you put the pressure on them in an excellent way. Japan has been paralysed for the entire game. I was shocked at how you invested money in the Pacific and had so few transports in the Atlantic, but in the end it worked out beautifully.
I’ll hope to play you again in the future. Perhaps we will face each other again in the tournament! 😁

@VictoryFirst said in 2025 Classic tournament round 1 Gamerman01 v VictoryFirst (Axis):
in the end it worked out beautifully.
I had lucky results in China J1, and again against the Japanese battleships and loaded carrier off French Indo China
The Japanese fleet was more important than normal because only one factory was built
Very gracious, thank you!
