@pacifiersboard now I see why you are asking…

second “oha!” That is important to know (so no exchangeable carrier buy as possible landing spot…)

Actually what is in the current rulebooks derives from the official November 2014 FAQ-sheet update, when this Q+A had been introduced:

“Purchasing Units
Q. Can I purposely purchase more units than I can mobilize with the intent of deciding which
units I want to keep based on the outcome of battles I intend to fight?
A. No. You may only purchase as many units as you will have the ability to mobilize after making repairs to any damaged industrial complexes. The rules for returning excess units are intended only for inadvertent over-purchasing.”

@I have a small youtube channel and can do a review of the balanced mod championship. I am currently reviewing the 22 semifinal match between AAAgamer and ABH.

Crockett has videos of 1 hour interviews with

I’m urging him to do more interviews (of league players, hopefully, and he’s talking about Larry?!)
and also perhaps to review games along with other players, especially with the players of those games.

Breaking new ground in the league - putting faces to names

Topic is pinned in the league section so it doesn’t get buried in here.

I will add to the list, there, as interviews are added.

Thanks @crockett36 , you are adding a new dimension to the league, probably the biggest splash since Path to Victory

I wish! No, that is me in my James T Kirk shirt. My sister drew that. It is from a school picture when I was 7.

NIce!

[crockett36]

@gamerman01 I’d be honored to do it.

I think there might be an appetite for “world champion” that might work well with the algorithm or something? I’m not a YouTube expert 😅

Does anyone have any idea how many copies of each game has been sold? That would give us an idea of how big a pond we’re fishing in and how big a lake 42 is?

[Stucifer]

@crockett36 Good question. i don’t think that’s public information. We’d have to ask Renegade/Beamdog directly, probably.

Can a AAA gun be used as a land unit for the sake of the Atlantic wall NO in P2V?

Yes.

Thank you for the fast response.

Can a AAA “activate” a friendly neutral in P2V as well, or does the OOB “No” still apply on that.

No, same rules apply.

Japan was not at war with Russia and attacked the UK forces in S. Persia, where there was also Russian ground and air forces. As expected, the Japanese forces fought only the UK units. The Japanese won. At the end of the Japanese NCM, the program (unexpectedly) removed the 2 Russian fighters and tac: “2 fighters and 1 tactical_bomber could not land in Southern Persia and were removed.” I am not sure why as Japan and Russia are not at war and 16 Russian infantry were allowed to remain. Does anyone know of any rule for why the Russian air (but not land forces) were removed or is this a program bug?

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

@ArtofWar1947 program bug. Not allowed to attack land territories with units that you are not at war with. Japan must dow against Russia before making that attack.

[ArtofWar1947]

@Arthur-Bomber-Harris

Thanks ABH. Interestingly, the rule does not apply to SZ with units from different nations.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

@ArtofWar1947 correct. You can co-inhabit sea zones but not on land.
