I’m playing an opponent who is preventing Vichy from occurring by having the UK attack Italy’s destroyer and transport in SZ96 from SZ98 with a destroyer, cruiser, tactical from aircraft carrier in SZ98 and a fighter from Malta. Italy’s destroyer is sunk (and transport). Then in the Non-Combat phase, UK loads the transport in SZ98 and lands UK troops in Southern France. Since France is still an ally at this point, this is legal and effectively prevents Vichy mode, since Germany will now have to take Southern France on its next turn. There isn’t any way to prevent this as far as I can tell.

then the rules should be revised, right?
-
No, AAs don’t have combat value and hence do not stop guerilla spawn.

But it is a land unit and thus fulfill the requirement to stop the spawn
-
@oysteilo Every land unit that stops guerillas is listed. AA are omitted.

I understand. I think a different wording is better to avoid confusion.

@Adam514 said in G40 Balance Mod 3.0 - Rules and Download:
Marines are like infantry for transports, so you can load 2 marines or 1 marine and 1 tank.
This is also problematic and should be listed on its own. The general rule is one inf and one specialieced units, or two inf. Mariens must be considered a special unit given it’s cost of 5. Anyhow
-
@oysteilo If 1 marine can load onto a cruiser/BB and 1 infantry can’t, I hope 1 marine takes equal or less space than an infantry on 1 transport.

Ok. Thanks for your reply. To me it makes zero sense given the extra cost. Infantry should be obsolete with this logic. Anyhow…
-
I read rule. No issues. 1 marine only can go on a BB and/or a CR. 1 Marine counts as a inf on a transport.

This post is deleted! -
Oh I see your point with marines being a smaller Inf group. You know that ain’t a bad idea. Being there a special little assault group. Plus from what I’ve read they were a little better on defense. Like in my game d12 there A4 D5. They only get the Art boost A +1. Another question is why don’t Inf get a D +1 with an Art on defense also ? But another topic.
Transport capacity units.
Inf or marine / Inf
Inf or marine / AA
Inf or marine / Art
Inf or marine / Tank
Inf or marine / Mech
3 marines only alone
I would have it Where you can transport 3 marines only on there own. -
Maybe this has been addressed. I am wondering what happens if you bid a french destroyer (or submarine) to 93 and Vichy is activated.
-
@oysteilo It hasn’t been addressed, but it’s likely that everything in sz 93 turns Vichy.

I can add that my guess is no, since US can’t use allied naval bases before they’re at war.

Yes they can.

If vichy is activated round 2 and the french in north Afrika merge in Algeria, then Algeria will be pro axis neutral with 3 inf there? Correct?
-
Yes…
-
@oysteilo Correct indeed.
