Bought the extra colours.

Anyone here have the Table Tactics in light blue, though?

I’m looking for the table tactics pieces that compliment Xeno’s World at War.  I wanted the light blue.

Anybody have these and are willing to part?

Cheers

I like the ‘grey’ they used in Europe - dark, but not as dark as later games.

I’m playing bid.

I’m getting allies at $20 and still getting whooped.

I don’t have the rule book handy, so I need to ask a simple question …

Does ANZAC get the $5 bonus money for having units (air or ground) on an island originally Japanese without controlling that island?  In other words, does ANZAC get the $ even if it is the US that controls the japanese island as long as they have units on it?

I unistalled everything and installed it all again.  The toolbar was there, but after closing down and starting again, the toolbar is gone again.  My home computer is fine, but not this one.

I did delete the file you suggeted, but nothing happened.

I can’t seem to get the pieces tool bar to come up, despite checking it on the drop down menu.

Am I missing something?

Thanks Krieghund,

I just wanted to make sure.  I have had Allies avoid kamikazes by NCM the fleetn in, and then he has avoided the danger completely.

Check my facts for me, please…

Kamikazes can only be activated AFTER one of the ‘kamikaze’ islands have been captured by the Allies.

Let’s say kamikazes are ‘active’ in the game.  The Allies move to take Phi (or any ‘kamikaze’ island) with only a transport and infantry, and they are immune.  In Non-Combat Movement phase, the remainder of the Allied fleet moves into the Phi seazone, but are also immune to kamikaze attack since the attack can only occur in the Allied Combat phase.

Questions:

If the Allied fleet remains in the Phi seazone on the next Allied Combat phase, can they be attacked by Kamikaze?

If the Allied fleet leaves on the next Allied Combat phase, can they be attacked by kamikaze?

Cheers

He’s not talking about scrambling from Kwa - US fleet would be nowhere near there.

He means that you need to time it right, because with the India push there are about 18 planes in Kwa, another 6 on CV and the remaining couple in Jap.  With the airbase in Kwa, all planes make it back to attack the US fleet in sz6 along with some Jap ships.

Stoney, after you crush me in the game we are now playing, we can give it a go - but I’m Japan  :-D

There will only be 1 TT on US 2, and only 2 planes to hit Kor or Jap with.  Not enough.  Maybe by US 3, but the Jap fleet (minus carriers) will be back in Phi.

Buying a base means you can only hit Kor with 1 TT - hardly a threat to Kor when Jap backs them up into Man.  US 3 at the earliest.  Probably not even then.

Razor,

If you have a real solution, I’m all over it.  Playing by forum is not the pain you think it is.  I’m more than happy to have you smash me with the allies - it may enlighten me.  Give it a shot, you may like playing by forum.

Offering up the planes in DEI has gotten them slaughtered for me, and makes it even easier for my opponent to take India since he needs less planes.  India still fell J3 and I don’t know what could be done differnt.  Jav can be taken by JP turn 1 from Car, so using that as the place to land is out.

Tried putting them in Java or Cel - along with AN planes.  Got smashed.  Got to be a better place to send them.

I also wonder if assuming that India is lost and play with a differetn focus is doable.  Not sure though.  I thought that getting the UK planes out of India to Wau and help harass JP money there?

Or flying them with the Chinese to lock down a Chinese stack?

As long as your not the kid in the back for whom I named a poped vein after, you’r ok.

Actually, it seems that it doesn’t calculate properly only if Yunnan is captured.

Also, Anzac’s money starts at $15 even though they don’t have Dgu.  And the US and UK start with their NO cash as well - it can’t be taken off.

China aslo starts with its cash, but taking any of the burma road spaces does not reduce it - China still gets its NO cash regardless, it seems.
