@JWW:

@Gamerman01:

Can’t you take FIC without losing the NO, because it’s not an attack?

I’ll let you edit if you want.  Let me know either way

NCM, walk in? I thought if I had FIC I would lose the 10 NO??

Yes, it’s a friendly neutral so it’s a walk in during non-combat movement.  The NO says Japan can’t ATTACK FIC!!!

[gamerman01]

We’ll have to ask the Balanced Mod guys to be sure.

They wrote the NO in Triple A “has not occupied FIC” but I looked at the rules in the stickied thread and they just have the additional NO’s, so I would think no change to the original NO.

The NO in the rulebook says “has not attacked FIC”.  But I maybe do remember some discussion about Vichy and FIC and the NO and I don’t remember what the conclusion was.

The whole Vichy thing is a crackpot idea IMO

I am getting too old to remember all these rules and using them to your advantage makes a big difference, obviously, in the final outcome…we are way beyond the KISS principle here.

[gamerman01]

No problem, Adam is answering my question in the forums.  I think he’s saying I was right (you can get the +2 and take control of FIC) but I just asked again to make sure that’s what he means.

But you’re right, “little” things like +2 and control of FIC 1 turn earlier (and denying me a walkin) have a significant effect!  If you control FIC you have the option of building an IC there J3!

Anyway, you know me, I want to play according to the rules even if it benefits my opponent.  I’m not an ends justifies the means kind of guy.  It’s not the destination but the journey!

I can’t remember all these quirky Vichy rules either.  I was writing some of these BM rules down in my notes, but I didn’t jot this one down.  I guess I will now

[666]

whatever the outcome just edit it, I trust you and proceed when you can……I might have to go back to checkers…

[gamerman01]

:-) I will just use your first map.  Sorry I was wrong and caused inconvenience for you

Need a break, so UK later

[gamerman01]

Ooh, I must have told you wrong in game 1 - I was just re-reading the Vichy rules for the 20th time and saw a sentence that says fly-over restrictions applicable to other neutrals do not apply to Vichy territories.  This after it says that “Vichy French territory operates the same way as other pro-Axis Neutral territory”

I still can’t figure out what happens if I liberate South France.

I hate the Vichy ruleset, and I hate how Adam always defends everything he does like he can do no wrong.

[gamerman01]

@Gamerman01:

I still can’t figure out what happens if I liberate South France.

I guess it’s the same as any other non-Paris Vichy territories.  Another question is if it is taken overland without attacking Z93, what happens to the 2 Vichy boats.  Way, way too many rules with Vichy
