J1: Chahar, Anhwe, Hunan,French indo china; move fleet to sz6, island men drop in Korea.
Is this including the fleet at Truk? or just the 3 ships up by Japan in sz19?
G5: Build 10 units in C. US rest in Europe, drive Russia back with your 50+units vs their 35ish.
Major Factory in C. US becomes minor factory upon conquest.
In the Global part of the rule book, it says US starts at 52. And if they are at war they go up 30 more? How can anyone even deal with 82 when they haven’t even done anything yet.
Ok, if someone thinks they have found a strategy that may hurt the enemy, Why are we always wanting to use “home-rules” to fix the problem? Why not take some time and figure out an answer to the problem within the rule set?
Probaly love to face my Russian opponent. Japan attacked on J2, Germany waited till G4. The russian player did not try to seize any neutrals. He refused to fight with his 18 infantry, always backing up. He never sent any troops east to help. And the units he bought waiting on the germans were anything but infantry.
Our little group is only 3 people, we drew straws and I was left with the axis. I was overwhelmed by the size of the game.
Since this was a learning experience, I did silly things like point out to the Britain player to look what was in england, and yes I had a transport and many aircraft on the french coast. After the Britain player completed his attacks on GB1 I showed him the move to get rid of some of the italian fleet. We ended up playing 6 turns before calling the game - Allied Victory.
My timing and judgement were completely off for this game. Took 2 turns to take out the French (never seen dice like that before). I couldn’t really get into the Japanese
part of the game, wasn’t sure exactly when to bring US and Russia into the game. I ended up attacking Russia J2, and US on J3. Germany waited till G4 to attack Russia.

One follow up question…
As Japan, I took control of the dutch territories by force. The Americans liberated
them later in the game. Do the americans get points off these territories or is it India or Anzac?
I have destroyer blocking a sea route. We are not at war yet. Can Japan’s fleet move thru the destroyer to attack as if the destroyer was never there?
When Kamikazes are activated, if a carrier takes two hits from them and sinks, do the planes go down with the carrier? or are they in the air with no place to land?
