That depends on how dull the knife is, though.  My husband’s mother has knives so dull I use her spoons to cut my food.  Lord knows the knife is completely useless!

Correct.  TRNs do not have to be FULL.

@Gerbilkit:

Um… I’m confused. How the hell are you stopping the Japanese from taking India round one if you’re pulling 2 infantry out, unless you have Colonial Garrison.

I ask at the risk of being obvious …

Were you playing 8 VC game?
If so, LHTR changed it to 9 VC.
So its ok to lose India to stop Germany getting Africa income.
Still an IPC win overall for Allies.

Not if Japan is able to build and fortify an IC there on the second round and be pumping tanks out towards Africa and the Caucus J3.  :-P

@allies_fly:

I am not new to Revised, but new here.  I have been trolling the board for a while

I like the PBF area.
who are some of the better player so I can follow their games

thankz for ur replies

Trolling rly?

it IS almost fishing season!

Yea, NF and MPB are pretty darn good if you are encountering KJF.  Otherwise, MPB and Tokyo Express are better,IMHO.  (NF doesn’t work for bombardments, so they are very mitigated if America flees from Japanese supremacy in the Pacific.)

Banzai’s too nerfed in LHTR.  If it was more like how they are in enhanced, they’d be much better, IMHO.  (You can use them in conjunction with artillery, armor, fighters and bombers in enhanced, but not in LHTR.)

Sealion is not the way to go.

1. Odds not in your favor: A. survives: 22%  D. survives: 73%
2. If you fail, you have just lost the game.
3. If you succeed, you will have lost more units than the money you will get from UK, while letting Russia get ahead in the builds.
4. You will lose Gbr against the UK or US counterattacks. If you retake it, you will lose it again.

According to odds and some of my calculations, this strategy will win you the game less than 20% of the time.

Two can play that game, dude !!!

Individual winner in multi-play does make for bad team play. I suggest that you have a series of games, where the team members change sides. At the end of the series, each player shows the number of times that they were on the winning team. The payer wit hthe highest # of wins will be the best TEAM player. :wink:
Stay tuned for a TEAM tourneyment coming soon1 I will be hosting in the TripeA site.
  Good luck with yur team play. :-D

Thanks Craig, I appreciate what you wrote out. Seeing the highlighted parts helped a whole lot. Thanks.

I know that the anniversary edition board will be the biggest yet. But I am curious to see what new territories they added and to actually see what Italy has for holdings and military buildup at the beggining of the game. The box will probably be just as big as the MB edition. Perhaps they will change the look/artwork of the battleboard, national production chart, etc…

@Cmdr:

then it becomes a game of can we see Jenny’s breasts and it goes down hill from there.

Well, of course it’s all downhill from there. :-o

@TATCCITW:

Yeah but what if they attacked? What if there were subs present and they submerged.
And the other possibility I was thinking of, let say that Ger has a fleet next to Uk in SZ7. Uk has two fighters four spaces away from SZ7. Can those fighters attack when a CV has been purchased knowing they’d land there if they survived?

The fighters could legally attack, since the placement of the carrier would allow them a landing spot.  However, since they used all of their movement to get to the battle, they would have none left to retreat, so it would be a fight to the death.  The fighters would either clear the sea zone (including possible submerging by subs) or be destroyed.  If the fighters survive, the carrier must be placed in the sea zone.  If they don’t the carrier could still be placed in the sea zone, or it could be placed in another sea zone if there is another one available.

Edit:  Just to be clear, this answer applies only to LHTR, as using all of a fighter’s movement for combat movement would be legal under the box rules only if an existing carrier moved into the sea zone during either Combat or Noncombat Movement.

Its strange. The link was working yesterday but now its not. So i cant find the supporting documentation, but ill look.

Interesting take.

Destroyers can be better then fighters, if you have combined arms, in that case.  Att/Def at 3 + Bombard @3 in opening fire.  Not too bad if Fighters are nerfed.

Though, I agree, fighters can defend on land and sea, that gives them flexibility.

@a44bigdog:

As you play more you will learn that transports love to take out fighters for some reason.

Particularly with the Hasbro A&A Iron Blitz CD-ROM :-P ~ZP

@sanya33:

1. you can mobilze only a number of units up to the income value of that territory. does this include land units only? or air and sea units as well?

It includes all units.

@sanya33:

2. can defending planes retreat ?

No.  The only thing close to a retreat for defending planes occurs when their carrier is sunk out from under them.  If the fighters survive the combat, either because the attacker retreats or is destroyed, they must find a place to land within one space or be lost.

:-)
Well researched Krieghund! :-D
You get a gold star! (sorry, there is no gold star icon) :?
  As for the rest of you
  Plunder is always seperate from income, just ask any pirate! :wink:
  Arrrgh, I can see ye landlubbers know little of the Pirates ways .  :roll:

@Ranor:

LHTR 2.0 says to this:

“If the attacker has not withdrawn all units, defending submarines may submerge.”

This implies defending subs submerge after the attacker has chosen to either retreat (or submerge) or not.

(page 16 - Condition B) Defender withdraws subs by submerging)

Page 14 is more to the point.

It categorically states that the Attacker choses to press the attack or retreat BEFORE defending submarines chose to submerge or remain surfaced.
