Hi, a few of us AA 1940 players are getting together Saturday 23 NOV from 11am to late afternoon. Depending on how many interested we will decide which version to play. New players can learn how to play by partnering with more experienced ones. Will advise of location once you contact me: mikpel@hotmail.com Mike

@mikemikemike Ok, thanks for all the good information. Here is a wrinkle: IF Japan declares war on UK/ANZAC, and the USA gets an immediate 30 point IPC ‘bonus’ at the very start of the next turn… what happens if the USA does NOT declare war on Japan the next turn or several turns afterwards and Japan likewise does not declare war on the USA… does the USA stay at the pre-war, non-bonus IPC levels? Even after they get the 30 point immediate bonus…

@marshmallowofwar hi and thanks. so for Pacific game only: the USA gets an immediate 30 points of IPC to spend on that phase 1 build of the first turn after Japan declares war Only on UK/ANZAC… but the factory is only Minor- so, can’t put more than 3 on until converted to Major after USA declares war on Japan in its combat phase?

@panther Hi, sorry I am a bit slow on this topic for 1940 Pacific only version: So, if on Turn 2 Japan declares war on ONLY Uk/ANZAC- does the USA immediately get 30 extra more IPCs to purchase for their Turn 2?

Hi, proposing next AA 1940 game for Sunday, 16 DEC at 11am at Sweeney Post in Manchester. Please let me know if interested.

Thanks, Mike (mikpel at Hotmail dot com)

TDay Game 1940 Pacific, Iwo Jima is attacked by US successfully. For NCM, US sends in its 2 carriers to have its surviving fighters land. But, Japan can’t use its remaining Kamikaze since it is a Non-combat move? Can US move the carriers like that? Thx. Mike in NH.

Hi, Mike here in Manchester, NH.  We play once a month at the local American Legion.  Email me if interested and I will send you updates:  mikpel at Hotmail dot com

I am not sure if we can put in email addresses so just put in the correct ‘at sign’ and ‘dot’.  We play mostly AA 1940.

I picked up the Subject Title from an old post on the Global:  Recent game of AA 1940 Europe, the German infantry forces in Greater Southern German and only 1 German infantry from Romania attack Yugoslavia on Turn 1.  The attack fails (but weakens Yugo enough for the Italians to move in and take the IC Points next turn) and ALL German forces ‘retreat’ to Romania.  Pretty neat trick, huh?                            .
The rule should be they must retreat from the country which they originated but that is not the case.

Yes, my bad.  I was mixing in with the Global rules by mistake.

Is the factory on the US West Coast a ‘minor’ one (3) which is magically made a ‘major’ (10) after war is declared?  I always had it a major (10) factory from the start of the game.  thx
