I have to say that if you believe that you can DOW with the USA on this R7, and not the R8 that we agreed to, that we did not understand each other.
-
First let’s get the DOW situation resolved.
-
UK of course has the right to DOW against Japan when it wants.
Based on the seasonal turns, R8 = Winter 1941-42, right around the time of Pearl Harbor. I would not have given the USA the right to DOW prior to Pearl.
also, #7 clearly says that america does not have the right to DOW until R8.
-
Wait so you mean at the END of round8?
I thought it was like the regular game, US in reality declares war at round4, but collects his wartime income at the end of round3, isn’t it? -
1.) UK fleet in 91, 98, 110, 112 move to 111 (includes tac bomb on cv)
2.) Naval base in Scotland
3.) airbase on Gibraltar
4.) fighter on Malta and gib removed, moved to Scotland
5.) interceptors shoot at 2
6.) USSR Dow rights delayed to Round 6
7.) USA DOW rights delayed to Round 8
8.) One consolidated income for UK, to be used as they see fitLook at the list. If I meant end of Round 7 during collect income wouldn’t I have said that? Isn’t it more logical that I was saying collect income of R8, unless attacked by another country first?
-
I thought we were following the rules in the most similar way to the alpha3, but ok if I can dow at the start of R8 this means I don’t get the wartime bonus, so just remove 25 IPCs from USA and let’s go on.
-
if you mean AT THE END of round8 lots of things change!
Let me know. -
If that’s the way you want to play it, ok. Â However, my intention really was that R8 was taking the place of R3. Â R3 collect income is when USA can DOW without being attacked.
-
The way it was worded was open to misinterpretations, I don’t care about the result of the game (I mean if I win or you win), I care more about seeing if this thing works and can be a standard home rule variant.
I certainly think that USA delayed that much could be a bit too harsh especially in the scenario that Germany, Italy and Japan focuses on Russia starting from early turns. Anyway you’re the one deciding. -
It could be tough on Russia. We should play test that.
In this set up, Russia is more likely to get the Archangel bonus, not that that’s a game changer necessarily.
As you’ve started to do in the other game, it is more likely in this set up that UK can get troops into Novgorod the way they did in classic, thru the scotland to novgorod passage directly.
Let’s give this playtest the same benefit of the doubt we give the standard set up.
-
also in a game where the germans can’t just crush the english navy, I think that germany is going to have a hard time rushing into moscow.
if anything actually, I believe that this set up is more favorable to the allies than the axis, at least relative to the latest alpha 3.
-
Would you like to start testing me playing Axis and you playing Allies at the same conditions?
-
With USA able to DOW on their collect income of R8?
Incidentally, I probably was going to attack with Japan on R8 anyway, so the net impact is mainly just that you don’t get your war income R7.
If it can be proved that a Japan-Italy-Germany rush on Moscow breaks this alternative set up, then I would propose that a Japan DOW against Russia brings the USA into the war. Actually it’s always kind of bothered me that Japan could attack and not automatically bring the UK against them automatically. Whoever heard of being in a war where your ally was attacked and you didn’t go to war with the people that attacked them?
If Germany and Italy can still rush Moscow and win all the time, I would probably propose additional convoy NOs to balance (Siberia, Middle East etc)
