14L G40 ArtofWar1947 (Axis) vs JWW (Allies + 10)


  • Jim: Thanks for the clarification on where Major ICs can be built by Japan and where to find this information in triplea. The rule in the written rulebook is ambiguous. As written, “original territory” could be interpreted either as “possessed at the beginning of the game” or historically–specifically–before 1931, when Japan invaded Manchuria. It would help novices if the written rule book were more specific.

    I made a couple of minor edits in the Japanese-7 non-com move, which I reposted.

    agreed, there are a few players here who are very knowledgable about the rules. If you have any questions you should contact gamerman01.

    I am enjoying this game. It is challenging and I don’t know what to do here…….oh no


  • Thanks for the tip about Gamerman01.

    Playing better opponents such as yourself is a real challenge–puts my mind to work overtime, but I enjoy the excitement.


  • I will be attack z42 jpn ss & dd and rolling in the a&a org thread so the jpn doesn’t get the incorrect sneak (i’m bringing a usa dd)

    I will be attacking Denmark w/a lone inf and bringing 4 usa fgt.'s & 3 usa bmb’s to protect the trn. Does Germany want to scramble?

    thanks


  • A scramble would be extremely unwise.
