Do u have 2 take control of a territory once u defeated all defending units ?

thank you for the answers, that was my understanding aswell, but my group couldn’t agree on it so i wanted to clear out things.

Our games normally see the Germans build some fleet (including a couple tpts). Agreed Gibr gives many options (no AB makes it somewhat riskier), but if US comes to Norway via Gib (they can see it coming), then the Germans can delay it by simply building (or moving) a dd off coast of Normandy (sz 110) to block them for a turn. So the US (if is still going north) will normally kill the dd (move to sz 110), and have the UK build a carrier (add/planes) to try to keep the Germans from hitting them (provided the UK is still in the game). Then the US can probably take Norway (UK can land air to def), but the Germans again can be ready to counter it from the Baltic. Again our games usually see some navy builds for the Germans, and the western allies will need a good sized fleet to get close to shore.

Maybe he’s tidy and he wants to put the right units in the right box after the game is finished. If so: draw a small dot on the bottom of each unit.

… not for both East and West of course  :lol:

tell nutbar to play by alpha 2

Just to provide logical justification: air units can’t scramble to provide air cover for adjacent provinces because those provinces can have their own fighters and/or airbase.  Sea zones cannot, and the purpose of air bases in many cases is to help nearby fleets.

@manincellv:

WHy in ALPHA +2 are there 11 German infantry in Germany?

There was some concensus among LH and those playtesting Alpha +1 that Germany was underpowered in the land attack into Russia and ran out of steam before capturing the victory cities more often than not or attaining economic parity (also why Germany and Italy got more NOs).  The desire was to provide some additional land units that could keep up some momentum.
