40 IPC’s. I do it every time I play Japan. I take the PI and all the DEI, Malaya, Borneo & Hong Kong. These = 21 IPC which puts Japan @ 40 IPC’s. If all goes well I do not lose too much units due to Japans 1st round attack advantage. (All Allied units, except the Chinese, defend at 1 on the dice) Tonight I won by VP’s, holding over 40 (I topped out @ 45) for 6 rounds. USA had sunk Japans navy on T5 after I slammed into AUS capital after building up INF & ART for a couple rounds and lost that battle. I pretty much had expanded all my forward units and had started reinforcing the India campaign. By the time the USA started to xport land units it was too late. It was great game w/ a few navel battles that cost both sides alot of hardware! Great fun! My boys are grumbling by being beat by the “ol Man” again. :-D
National production chart and NCM's
-
Im a little confused about what the purpose of the national production chart is. I know that you put the markers on the designated spot in the beggining, but what are the rest of the NCM’s for? Do you put NCM’s on the actual board itself when you capture territories, or do you put them on the chart itself. Also, how do you “decrease your production level” If someone could explain this in detail, the help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

You’ll notice that each territory has an IPC value, the combined total value for all territories under your control is represented on the NPC. This shows how much cash you get at the end of each turn. All the other markers are for placing on new aquisitions; that is, territories that you have gained control of through the course of the game, thereby adding to your own income and reducing your opponents income.
-
so do the markers go on the territory itself, or on the national production chart? BTW, can USA’s income not go past 80 because that is the highest number on the national production chart.
-
O you mean National Control markers :o ! Yes, they go on the territoires you occupy, or control. So, if you’re japan, and you take Burma, then you put the little Rising Sun on the terriotory to show its now yours. So if you leave the country everyone remebers its still yours.
Also, there is no limit to IPC income. Just place one marker on 80 and the other on the 1, and add the 2. So USA’s income would be 81 in that case.

ok, thanks fer clearing that up guys…it really helps :D
