G40 Tourney Discussion/question(s)

@TerrorBane:

Us does full move purchase deploy yadda yadda and then china does its move. So china can land planes wherever the us conquered. They are completely separate.

Correct.  In global 1940 America does their whole turn up to and including collect income, then China starts their turn as a sovereign nation.  Just as England could land fighters on territories taken by the Americans, so too can the Chinese fighter land on soil taken by America.

I guess it would be more like land cleared by the USA for China as China’s 1 plane is limited to only certain territories  :-D

All of China + Burma and Hong Kong yes.

I have a question.  On the turn that Japan declares war on UK/Anzac, can they move through zones that have UK or Anzac or US destroyers during the combat movement phase, or do those zones turn hostile the moment the DOW occurs and before the combat move phase?

Cheers

DOW happens at start of turn so all szs with your new enemy are hostile. You can ignore szs with transports and subs (ie you can choose not to fight them and sail right past them) but all other ships become hostile zones where battle must occur if you enter them (unless you are entering the sz with a sub and they do not have a destroyer in that case you may sail right by.

and if japan declares war on UK or Anzac, they are also immediately at war with the USA, and a US destroyer would block Japanese combat moves right?

[TerrorBane]

So they become hostile before combat movement phase… So if you are declaring war on anzac and uk you can’t move through their sz… Hey cmdr, when you make an unprovoked dow against anzac and uk do Us warships immediately become hostile szs too or does that wait until us turn?

[anchovy]

Unless Japan declares war on the US at the same time that they do on UK/ANZAC, then they are not at war with the US.  The Japanese can, therefore, ignore US ships during CM and combat.  If the Japanese attack on UK/ANZAC was unprovoked, then the US has the option of a DOW on Japan.  By then, Japan’s turn is over.

No.  Japan may choose not to declare war on the United States but on Russia, England and Australia (or any part thereof.)  America may then declare war on their turn, but for the rest of Japan’s round, American warships are still neutral.

They cannot move THROUGH British and Australian warships, but warships that start in the same sea zone as Japanese ships do not stop the Japanese in anyway.  Japan may even load transports in such sea zones and move to conduct combat elsewhere.

Disengaging is still an option.  And on the round you declare war (and that round only) Krieghund has ruled (many times now) that you may load your transports and move them out of combat for a combat elsewhere.  This is generally only the case in the Baltic Sea, but it is the standard for other instances as well.

Remember, post your results in this thread with your last map, please.

It makes it easier for me to get the maps and link them to the results page and update the roster.
