G40 JWW(Axis) vs Commander Jennifer(Allies)

[Jennifer]

@JWW:

correct me if I am wrong. On J1 the Japs could have taken CELEBES isles w/out declaring war on anyone?

No. England and Australia can annex them before being at war.  Japan has to declare war.  Some special arrangement between the British Commonwealth and Holland.

Here’s the rule:

If the United States has war declared on it by an Axis power, an Axis power captures London or any territory in North America, or Japan makes an unprovoked declaration of war on the UK or ANZAC, the United States may declare war on any or all Axis powers. However, if it’s not yet at war by the Collect Income phase of its third turn, the United States may declare war on any or all Axis powers at the beginning of that phase.

Page 4 of 15

You are declaring war on England, they did not provoke you into war by moving into China or declaring war on you.  So America can stop waiting and declare war immediately on Japan.  (Normally they declare on round 3 and can make attacks on round 4.)

ok thanks, I’ve put too much thought into this at this point. I am not turning back. Come and get me!  :-D

[666]

so you think attacking the UK on T2 is a bad idea?

[Jennifer]

Oh, and Russia can declare war on Japan whenever it wants too.  It only has to wait until round 4 to declare war on the Germans and Italians.

As for whether or not a round 2 attack of England is “good” or “bad” really depends on how the players react to the situation.  You are giving America, essentially, + 50 IPC from their Objectives.

[666]

actually the Japs attacking the UK would be a bad idea. The usa could take out many of my ships……

OK another redo here…

J2 coming soon…sigghhhhhhh

thanks for the lesson, regardless of the outcome of this game Jenn, you are moving on to rd 2 as I will give close to the end. I understand this is a personal tutorial, and I appreciate it!

10 USA x2 Rounds
5 Philippines x2 Rounds
5 Alaska x2 Rounds
5 Mexico x2 Rounds

25 IPC a round, 2 rounds.

BTW, if England or Australia declare war on Japan, Japan can retalliate without inviting America to declare war on them.
