Thanks for the answers. Our first play was a lot of fun. And was a totall victory for me :evil:….

@P@nther:

Assuming you do not play Europe/Pacific/Global 1940 the rules are:

@rulebook:

Place new industrial complexes in any territory that you have controlled since the start of your turn and that has an income
value of at least 1. You cannot have more than one industrial complex per territory.

So yes, you can place as many as you like as long as you follow the quoted rules.

Playing the 42SE. Thanks, i thought no, my girlfriend thought yes. So yes it is.

Oke, i think last question. She is attacking me by sea with 3 transports, a battleship and a cruiser. She hasnt reached my land yet. But she i in range of my bombers. Can i attack the fleet? And so destroy here Battleship, cruiser and her Transport(inc cargo)?

@wittmann:

Was it an oversight?

She was retreating here forces from an attack earlier, but i did manage to sink the Destroyer in that phase. And i happen to have 4 subs laying around there for defense.

But what about the IC? Can you just place as many as you like around the board? I know you can place just 1 in a zone.

We are still playing here, our first match. Its fun. But i got some other questions about some actions and moves.

1. Submarines: I have in a Sea Zone 4 subs. The defender got a Battleship and an empty Transport. Can i do a suprise attack on both?
2. How many IC can you place after the setup? I believe there where 4 left. Can you place more then 4?

@Young:

Your playing the game all wrong… The defending player can not choose to defend with some units and not others. If I attack a territory, the defending player must defend with all units in that territory, so they are all at risk if they’re attacked by overwhelming odds.

Yes… you can make a surprise strike on the battleship in the absence of an enemy destroyer, but a surprise strike is not an extra attack, it’s a modified attack.

Well, i thought we where, so we did play like you said. Defending with all the units at that zone. Sounded like it should.

But, whats a modified attack? I thought it was a 1 strike attack.

@Young:

Each side can choose their own casualties after each combat round, so if your opponent is left with a unit at the end of battle, they will continue to control the territory.

Euhrm, what i meant was. I’m attacking with 5 units, the defender got 5 units at that zone but decides to use only 3 of them for the defense. So i cant take his zone. We kinda thought this is cheating so we choose: I attack with 5, you defend with 5. If you have that much units.

But next(yeah i keep rolling those questions now). I got a Sub at zone 7(AA42SE) and the other got a Battleship and an Transport. Can i do a suprise attack on the Battleship?

Thank, i wont leave any rules out. Where playing atm, but there is a question. Im attack an zone with a Figter, 6 infantery and a tank. The Zone i attack got a tank, 5 infantry, 1 fighter and an IC. Can i attack with the fighter? Or does the IC shoots first at my fighter? Im not doing an Bombing Raid…

And, what if…Well, im attacking with 5 infantery. Can the other side choose to get 3 infantery and leave 2 behind so i cant take the zone?

Thanks for the answers.

Got a new one. With the Amphibious Assualt, how does the Infrantry work? Infantry got a Move Value of 1. So i thought when loading them into a Transport was counted as 1 and you may not unload them after the Transport has moved. Or does the loading phase counts as an Non-Combat move?

Edit: When i attack one zone and also use some fighters, can the defending player then call in some fighter from another zone if he doesnt have fighter in that zone? I dont use Bombers, so the optional rule doesnt apply to this one.

Might be adding more questions. Just reading the rulebook again now for more understanding of it

Hi all,

First, best wishes for all of you!

Well, im new to this game and we gonna start playing tonight. But i got a few question wich i might have missed in the Rulebook.

I got a question about taking country’s(zone). For example, i invate Ukraine S.S.R. from Caucasus. Do i get the IPC(2) from the Ukraine?

If i keep pressing to Germany Berlin and i take it, does that mean that Germany loses all of his IPC, even the ones he/she has taken from other players?

If my zone is attacked, but i got Fighters availeble 3 spots away, can i still call them in for support? And may i do that even if there are no other plains doing a attack, for example Caucusus is attacking Ukraine with 2 tanks and an Infantery, can i still call in Fighters to the fight? Even if they are stationed in Germany?

Me and my girlfriend want to play, just the 2 of us. Do we both take 1 power or does one take the Complete Axis side and the other the Allies side?

Edit: If i have unspend IPC, do i keep those for the next round of do i lose them?

@wittmann:

Did You also understand that a Bombardment can only take place if you attack amphibiously? You need to transport men in a Transport and the defenders are shooting back at them. Not the ships. Even though the Bombardment t might hit and your unloading ground units do too, if the defender hits and gets as many hits as there are attacking ground units, you would lose and not capture the territory. The defender would retain it, despite not having any units in it.!

I didnt know that. i thought that i could do a bombardment run if there was an factory on the territory. To destroy it preventing the placement of new troops.
