League House Rule Playtest - Soulblighter (Allies) vs Shin Ji (Axis)

[Shin-Ji]

It’s the same deal if Russia falls - until an Axis power conquers say, Ukraine, the Allies can’t just walk in and make use of it.

[Soulblighter]

@Shin:

Some allies can.  The USA can’t take Dutch TTs unless they are taking them back from Japan.  THat’s a special case.

Just the way the game works.  And you forget, there is a way to get use of those French TTs - liberate France!

Really? What happens now when you liberate France? Take your time :P

Wow.  That was pretty terrible.  China is on point today.

[Soulblighter]

Yeah. I tried a similar move once in the old version of the game. I didn’t like it. I found I had to use most of Japan to keep the US busy, while not really doing anything other then, but I probably used the move poorly.

[Shin-Ji]

I’ve been wanting to experiment with J1 DOW for a while.  I figured this setup makes it slightly easier (no BB off Malaya if nothing else), so I thought I’d give it a shot.  Still, attacking my stack off hawaii isn’t all that great of a shot for you, even with the minor losses I took.  I’m interested to see how you react to this.
