@The-Captain Thanks Captain. That’s what I thought. I don’t know where simon got this because I can’t find it.

following turn ? Maybe that’s my misunderstanding ? I see no benefit fot JPN otherwise.
Anyway, @Panzerstahl-Helm I need to completely redo USA 2. I’m not sure if I can tho. I’ve never tried it after posting a turn already. Should be able to I’d think. Idk.
I’ll give it a shot. We’ll sort it one way or another :)
-
@Panzerstahl-Helm ok it’ll let me redo the turn in pbem. Be a while. I just got up to piss and checked for an answer.

@barnee said in PanzerStahl vs barnee EXP:
Can’t edit posts here :)
The more I think about it, in EXP, Natl Gd activates after JPN DOW on UK/ANZAC but USA still can’t DOW Axis until of end of rd 3.
The dudes are just being deployed.
? :)
wtf why did I even ask lol
-
@barnee
Good morning. I haven’t looked at the game map yet, but I guess in OOB the US can declare war after Japan DOW to UK/ANZAC. Thst is my understanding of the rules and I guess we used to play it in the normal G40 games.
Nevertheless, in case US cannot declare war to Japan yet, wouldn’t it be enough to adjust the income of the US (I think they receove a bonus when entering the war, so this amount could be reduced) instead of re-dping the whole turn?BR
-
Hi @Panzerstahl-Helm yea Idk what’s up exactly. I asked Panther directly and haven’t heard back. I wish people would just answer the question instead of saying here’s the rules. I know where the rules are. That’s not what I’m asking lol
The Captain interprets it the way i do. USA is still Neutral after the JPN DOW Rd 2 on UK/ANZAC and must abide by All USA Neutral Rules including Movement Restrictions.
The National Guard does Deploy though.That’s how I see it and how I’m gonna play it :) It makes no sense otherwise. There is no benefit for JPN not to DOW USA if USA can DOW and Attack the same turn, Rd 2, that JPN does it’s UK DOW.
-
@Panzerstahl-Helm what got me all confused is triplea doesn’t do it that way. I know triplea isn’t perfect, but theres no mention of it anywhere in the Game Notes to Player Enforce and it’s been out for 15 years lol
-
@Panzerstahl-Helm OK after more discussion, triplea does it correctly and the latest save is legal.
EXP Game 1 Stahl UK 2.tsvgThe United States may not declare war on any Axis power unless an Axis power either declares war on it first
or captures London or any territory in North America, or Japan makes an unprovoked declaration of war against the UK or
ANZAC, after which it may declare war on any or all Axis powers on its following turn. -
@The-Captain so according to simon USA can Declare War against JPN Rd 2 in the above scenario. I don’t fully understand it other than it was Pacific map only specific maybe.
The above post is from the Global Political situation.
-
Ciao!
As mentioned we used to play as we are proceeding in our game - if Japan declares war on UK/ANZAC, the US can declare war on Japan in the same round. Issue is the unclear definition of “turn” - is this meant to be round or turn in the meaning of each nations turn per round.
Anyway, I was expecting that the US will declare war and attack right on, as we used to play it in our gaming group.For future this scenarion can be more clearly defined in the wording. Furthermore I would suggest that in our scenario, the US cannot attack in the same round as Japan declared war on UK/ANZAC, but gets in war mode at the end of the round by collecting the bonus income for beeing at war and that the minor ICs are promoted to major IC. Just like TripleA does when Japan (or Germany or Italy) does not declare war on the US (or Japan in addition to UK/ANZAC) and the US enters the war in round 4. The US collects the bonus income at the end of round 3 + major IC.
Anyways, this little ambiguity should not affect our game. I was ‘prepared’ anyways and knew, that the US cann and very likely will also attack Japan right after the DOW to UK/ANZAC.

Yea, Good Idea about keeping USA out until Rd 3 in that scenario. You might bring it up to The Captain.
I also think the U-boats should get there 1st Rd D3 even if attacked by Subs with no DD present. I’ve mentioned it to him.
There having a gaming convention this week in Denmark I think. Maybe they’ll discuss it then.
I think they do several per year. Not sure where at in Germany you are, but maybe you could make one sometime. If you’re interested.
Oh yea, so next time you buy those Waffen dudes that didn’t place, you can just edit the PU total correctly and place them so they don’t keep showing up as unplaced.
You probably already know that :)

Hi Gentlemen,
United States can declare War on any or all Axis Powers, if Japan unprovoked attacks any UK/ANSAC units/territories. Or if Japan unprovoked attacks or declares War on USA.
Either way, the US can declare War on any or all Axis Powers from the end of round 3.
We just checked the OOB 2ndE rulebook…
Sorry for the misunderstanding…
-
Sir,
I need your scramble orders in SZ 110.
Furthermore I reduced my IPCs from 66 to 65 and placed the 1 SS-Waffen-Infantery from my wrong purchase from round 2.
I will do the same with the SS-Oberst once I will be able to place him.I also purchased an engineer, althoug I couldn´t find them in the rule book. Only the Combat Engineers are mentioned somewhere. I assume the regular Engineers have the same abilities, but less movement. In case the engineers are not available yet, I will replace it by a tank.
Very cool game so far and the new options and strategies that comes with the new units are amazing! I realy like it!
Also I am getting more and more used to the new unit-icons and they bring the game to a complete new level! -
I just noticed that I missed to move zhr italian AAA from Southern France to Bordeaux. I would move it in my German NCM, if ok for you.
-
@Panzerstahl-Helm All Good. No scramble
-
@Panzerstahl-Helm oh yea, so the “Engineer” is the Combat Engineer. There’s a fair amount of edit with them depending on how you use them.
Should be explained in Game Notes. Actually here ya go
italici18. Combat Engineer Adds the Combat Engineer Unit. Use Edit for moving Minor Factories and removing Landmines. Also for landing at Landing Strips. Land the Air Unit in a legal area and then edit after Non Combat Move. Unit Image courtesy of Hepps. sed text

@Panzerstahl-Helm Sweet :) So for 1st Panzer to be Active, it needs to change to “Panzer_General3”
I will add him on the commies turn.
Also, I’ll clarify the Game Notes for the Engineer. If I rename it, the name gets to long and crowds another unit out of Purchase screen.
Also there’s 5 different, as that’s how triplea does there max builds, so that’s a lot of work. I think it’ll be ok once people play it a bit but thanks for pointing that out. It didn’t occur to me.

@Panzerstahl-Helm oh yea, so when you do Wolfpack Attacks, you need to use Edit or Dicebot.
Reason being is that right now I have triplea set up to give U-boats in a Wolfpack an A1 before regular Battle and if it hits it will Kill without giving the Defender a chance to Fire back.
Then the U-boats fire at 2 normally. This is to represent there Rd 1 hit at 3 attack and defense.
Paratroopers work similar.
I thought about removing it, but you have to Edit anyway, so for those that don’t want too Edit, it makes closer to EXP Rules.
It didn’t change anything in our Battle, just a heads up for the future :)

@Panzerstahl-Helm lol the Spifires and the Messerschmitt are mixing it up :)
