Rules Question: Guest FTRS

Etiquette for optional rules vary from group to group, but the rulebook says that they may be used “if all players agree”.

Just to be clear, this is only an optional rule in Classic.  In Revised, it’s a standard rule.

@Mazer:

Hey LT04.

Close, but there is one odd exception: if your capital falls (say Moscow to Japan) and you take another capital (say Berlin to Russia) then Russia gets the money from the Germans and can spend it the next turn.

Very minor point, but I just wanted to note the oddity.  You can’t collect income in the collect income phase, but you can collect someone else’s income  :-D

Peace

@Krieghund:

Actually, in that case you do get the IPCs, but you can’t spend them until your capital is liberated.

Well you learn something new every day.  :-)

to keep it simple

submarine fires in opening-fire, all the time
hence it gets to fire regardless

There are numerous errors in the rule book that comes with the game.  You may want to check out Larry Harris Tournament Rules (which are available from a link on the main page of this website).

The only “opening fire” that repeats after the first round of combat is Submarine Sneak Attack.

BB Shore Bombardment and AA fire are limited to only opening fire of the first round of combat.

US turn = US gets it… That is how I have played it…
