16L G40 Balanced Mod Regularkid (Allies) vs Shin Ji (Axis)

[regularkid]

hi. i intended to attack poland with just 2 infantry and all air. somehow with the mess of units there, i accidentally clicked in 6 artillery, 2 inf, and all air. that was untended. i edit modes the 6 artillery back. hope u don’t mind. if this is an issue lemme knowl

[Shin-Ji]

Nah, it’s all good.

[Shin-Ji]

I think I may need to spend some time considering my move.

Under the old rules, this would be a giveaway win for Japan, but if Russia takes Germany on its next turn, then the victory conditions update, and I’d need to take another victory city in the Pacific, correct?

[regularkid]

that is correct. For a pacific win, Axis needs to control either:

1. 6 Pacific VCs and Berlin for a full round; or

2. 7 Pacific VCs for a full round.

[Shin-Ji]

So the message from the game saying I win was incorrect, right?

I just realized we’re using a map from before the official introduction of 2.0 - maybe that’s why.

[regularkid]

no. even in version 2.0, if you have “triggered victory” turned on in the game settings, it will give you an erroneous victory message. just load the game and turn off “triggered victory” before launching

[Shin-Ji]

Ah.  Cool.  I don’t believe that’s ever come up before for me.

[Shin-Ji]

Game’s over then!  No way I can really take ANZAC while holding on to what I’ve got.

Nicely played.  Excellent set of house rules you’ve cobbled up here.
