Sea Zone 109 questions

Generally speaking powers defend together. However in G40 there are powers that start off neutral (Russia and USA) or not at war with each other (like Japan and UK/France). You could have a case at sea when you attack a sz with units from multiple powers, and can ignore the units that belong to a power that you aren’t yet at war with.

We use a software called ‘TripleA’ to play online. Just check out these links:

and browse through the “Play Boardgames”-subforum with it’s child boards

to get an idea about it.

There is either “play by email/play by forum” or live games in the so-called “Lobby”.

Don’t hesitate to ask your TripleA related questions in the Software-Subforum.

HTH :-)

Herr KaLeun and ColonelCarter,

Thank you also for the added answer and explanation answers for transports offload ( Sorry Chris for diverging your sub topic ).

My mistake was not sending my two move units to Romania the previous turn as Germany. I just played out turn 9 and US was able to stack Northern Italy. Italy is out of the game now, but on the other side of the board Japan is making 105, and he is bombing Russia with 5 bombers every turn. He has more than UK in the south and he can now start landing in Africa taking the money away from Russia and UK. I do agree that US is going to eventually take Germany, but could he do it before Moscow falls? Probably :/

Rulebook Europe 1940 second edition page 14 left column top of page will give you the information that you seek.

@Bube:

Now if on the same turn your landing troops can the interceptors defend against the land after the SBR?

No.

@Bube:

If the airbase is damaged above 3 can defending planes still scramble on the same turn as the SBR (against the airbase)?

Yes.  Scrambling occurs before SBRs.

@Flashman:

I was thinking of adding a “Persian Corridor” around here along the lines of the Burma Road.  Being able to use the Caspian would be vital in this.

In our game, the US player moved 4-5 ftr from Persia to Moscow, and inconsciously he remade the history :-)

It’s a fine strategy for the US to take Persia for himself and build there a minor complex to send reinforcements in Russia, and it’s historically accurate.

@Dark_Destroyer:

The Russian player needs a destroyer to lift you from the convoy zone because you have a sub there.  Submerged sub in a convoy zone works.

“Submerging” is a term that can occur only in a battle as an option for Submarines to “retreat” while remaining in place.  After the battle is over, they are no longer considered “submerged”.  “Submerging” has no bearing at all in any other turn phase.

In addition, if you have any warship in a convoy zone during the collect income phase of the enemy’s turn (that controls territories adjacent to the convoy zone) they deduct their income REGARDLESS of whether they, or ANY another ally, have ships in that zone.  Japan could, for example, mobilize as many ships as they wanted in seazone 6 but it would NOT prevent convoy interdiction if an Allied power had ships in that space.
