This is a Triple A question. I am trying it out in the hopes I can soon try games in the forum. I ran into an issue which involves planes taking off from air bases. This should increase the plane movement by 1 space but I can not seem to figure out how to make that happen. If this is the wrong place for this question please forgive my inexperience.
Thanks for any help

Playing 1940 Europe as Germany. Playing my two sons and they always win. This time I have a chance to win as Germany however made a mistake and left Berlin vulnerable. Just took Moscow and have 84 IPCs. If you were faced with this situation and it is USA’s turn now. How would you attempt to hold off the USA long enough to get your tanks back from Moscow. What units would you buy?

Thanks for any insight

@barnee must have been a glitch because I stopped and restarted the program and it showed the 1/5 this time.

thanks to all for responding!

thanks for all the great analysis from everyone! I lost the game unfortunately but not because of a mistake on my part but because we did not realize that in the rules when you capture an enemy territory with a Major Complex it gets downgraded. So the US dumped 10 tanks there and the end was swift after two turns because I could not pump out enough stuff and sustain attacks from US, UK and my other tanks in Russia could not get back fast enough to help.

Question when the MC gets downgraded can the capturing force upgrade it? The US has a ton of money so its kind of a moot point they can just drop 20IPC’s and still have 50IPC’s to spend.

Thanks again great insight to a really fun game!

@colt45554 Thanks for responding. I used the edit mode as a work around and it seemed to work.

Thanks so much for clearing that up!

@marshmallowofwar
Can you help me find that in the rules that the original owner? Is it because you can only put MC on original territory?

@andrewaagamer
Thanks for this we did not know this rule. Also great insight!

thanks for the advise. Cant purchase for W. Germany because I lost it to USA. I can buy for Berlin and Paris. This is the beginning of round 6.

@Witt
What happens to the attackers planes after the combat roll? There is no place for the planes to land. Does the attacker loose the planes.

Thanks so much
