@timothy-gengarella In OOB, Netherlands would go German. With the Diplomacy expansion, they would go British. But most players put in restrictions that an attack by a major on a minor must have an actual attack of some sort to prevent it from being taken advantage of.

It seems I’ve asked this before but can a existing original Fctry go underground and be updated to Hvy Industry the same turn ?
I thought they could but now I’m not sure. New player was asking.
Thanks
-
Yes - this can occur in the same turn in the Purchase & Repair Units phase.
Remember:
Only the original owner of the Industrial Complex can upgrade to Heavy Industry Production. -
Right On
I thought that was the case but couldn’t remember :) -
Hi Sgt Pitbull - this is awesome

Question about the Kamikaze rules:
In TripleA we get a little red kamikaze plane each turn and I get that but it seems to have no real effect unless we can use it to target a specific ship.
What am I missing? How should we use this thing?
Thanks
-
Yea this thread different than the triplea one. Triplea is here
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/36998/global-1940-and-1943-expansion-for-use-with-triplea
I replied to you at the other site.
But yea, unless there’s a damaged Capital Ship to attack, it doesn’t seem worth it to me.
-
@barnee I also suggest that kamikaze planes get to ignore scrambles. So if I catch a sole transport, my kamikaze should be able to target it without a “dog fight” hahaha.

Hi Captain
Am adding the SP AA unit. I see it is available at Game start but the SPA not until Early 42. Was curious the reasoning on that.
Thanks

During the early stages of World War II most Panzer formations had their own self-propelled FLAK detachment.
At the same time towed artillery was the most common artillery support.
Later in the War - as most battles required higher maneuverability - the need for self-propelled artillery increased.
These factors are represented in the G40 HRE.

Italy has 6 NMs in 98 defending against 81. Germany has taken over Italy.
An LCV moves from Syria to Alexandria. Do the NMs roll a 1 at it ?
Thanks
-
Naval Mines are ignored by LCV.

@barnee WHERE is this Flak Tower Thread?
-
Go to pg. 1 at this thread - scroll down to the bottom at the first post until you get to Optional Rules.
FLAK TOWER is the 5th. Optional Rule.
We have also attached the rules here:

@The-Captain thank
You. That’s perfect.I got a little confused by the in-game Game Notes pointing to a discussion group instead of that pdf file.
Those flak towers are fierce!!!

Hello - just curious. Infantry Army, SB Commander, and Total Naval War seem to be House Rules that were discarded. Maybe play testing didn’t work for them??? Anyway, hadn’t heard anything in awhile on those three so was just curious if those are still being worked on or not. Thanks!
-
@Trout
Those rules are not yet finally play tested.You should focus on the rules that are used during Tournaments:
Wiking-Con Tournament Rules.

Apologies if I asked this before.
Do Tank Destroyers target SPA and SPA AA ?
Thanks
Edit
Actually I guess they wouldn’t target the AA as they can’t attack. The SPA’s though ? And SS SPA AA" ? -
The Tank Destroyer unit can only target any of these enemy units:
- Any type of Tank unit including Panzer General units
- Mechanized Infantry unit
- Tank Destroyer unit
- Armoured Infantry and Panzergrenadier unit
Allied Tank Destroyer units can also fire at these German Waffen-SS units:
- Panzergrenadier
- Panzer including Waffen-SS Panzer General unit
- Tank Destroyer

The G40 Total Victory Expansion has been added to the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion.
