Question about building on IC on Malaya????

yeah, its my mistake. the rulebook says that the US gets their 40 ipc boost in the turn after a japanse attack on a allied territory. China is not included

@Krieghund:

There is no rolling versus defenseless transports.  By definition, transports that can retreat are not defenseless, so combat would be conducted normally.

Perfect. Thanks!

@calvinhobbesliker:

@Mysterious:

Are Cruisers able to bombard without the presence of a Battleship?

Yes

thanks, the Rule book makes it confusing; it implies you have to use the buddy system with its ridiculous examples.

yes.  they can disappear in to the dark deep sea and only the almighty destroyer can find them.

@moompix:

They can’t hit the subs, or be hit by the subs. So, what would be the point?

just a question dude.  maybe some new thing with the whole “scramble” thing.

@MaherC:

pretty sure by “occupy” to get the 5 IPC one time deal you have to have boots on the ground, not planes in the sky.

That was my thought. Time to post a question… :evil:

Chinese can enter Burma, and Kwangtung that"s it besides tt w/Chinese star.

Hmm, the comments on Malaya are interesting because I had the opposite experience last night playing as J.

I attacked on J2. I built 1 IC on Kiangsu on J2, and built 1 IC on Malaya on J4, upgrading it to a major IC on J5. On J6 i built enough inf, art and trn there to conquer india on J7.

I had to divide my builds between ground and naval units because the US destroyed a big Jap fleet on US2 off Queensland, although they took big losses as well. Since I didn’t had enough inf to finish the Chinese or deal with the UK, I concentrated in starving the UK down to 4 IPCs and taking out India instead of losing too much time dealing with the Chinese.

It really felt that I didn’t had any better option: I had to send (and lose) 2 transports with INF to fortify the Carolines and take Guam (to prevent US bombers from striking out at transports on the Asian coastline). Overall I was a little short on infantry but the moment I built the IC the UK was as good as dead.
