Our group has had this discussion many times. It seems unrealistic that a country would develop something that is not useful. In one of our games Russia bought a non-disposable tech dice and actually rolled a 6 then rolled on the chart and got “War Bonds” which was cool for them but if you look at the list there are very few that Russia can benefit from. Mostly depends if they are on the offensive. If they are on the defensive then only “War Bonds” and “Increased Factory Production” seem to be worthwhile. “Radar” would also be good but its on a separate chart with tech that would not benefit them. Most would say that Russia should not even consider rolling on tech and I tend to agree unless they are on the offensive and have a massive economy.
Quick question about NOs and Bonus income
-
Hi all
I’m about to start my second AAG40 game - the first one in two years - and have been reviewing the rulebook.
I have two quick questions regarding UK and Germany NOsGermany
5 IPCs per territory if Germany controls Novgorod (Leningrad), Volgograd (Stalongrad) and/or Russia (Moscow).
It may sound silly but I want to make sure that I have understood it correctly.
Does it mean that from the time Germany gets i.e. Novgorod, it get 5 IPCs as bonus income ?
Or will Germany receive 15 IPCs all at once in each turn iwhen conquers and holds all three areas ?United Kingdom
5 IPCs if the United Kingdom controls all of its original territories in its European economy
If Germany conquers Iceland or Chipre for instance, does the UK lose this bonus income ?
Greetings

German NO: 5 for one territory, 10 for two, 15 for three territories.
UK NO: Correct!
HTH :-)
