@Blackychan I don’t believe your Italian attacks were legal moves for this set up. If you look at the game notes it states that Italy cannot attack any game spaces containing French or British units until Paris has fallen.
Look at the game notes and let me know your interpretation of those rules.
“Italy, while not at war may move naval units out of the Mediterranean Use Edit. They may declare war at any time, however unless Paris has fallen their combat moves may not include attacks on any game space occupied by French or British units. This is Player Enforced”

I’ve cleaned up the board, as well as making all my non-combat moves, and placements. Germany collects 56 IPC’s.
And now to Mother Russia.
-
What is our ally Germany up to? Why would they need so many halftracks?? And are those transports for England? Certainy they’re not for Leningrad…
Russia 2 purchases 9 Infantry, Armor, Artillery = 37 IPCs.
You have a very smart, and versatile Germany you’re playing right now.

Emperor Hirohito has stepped down, and I have taken command in his stead. For our glorious war purchases turn 2: 2 Transports, 3 Tanks, 4 Infantry=41 IPC’s spent.

I’ve made unit adjustments, and non-combat moves, as well as new unit placements. Japan collects 43 IPC’s.
A couple of questions and clarifications: I picked up 2 Infantry in Siam with a TT, dropping them off in Kwangsi, wanted to make sure I could move into SZ37 on non-com? Also moved 2 BB from SZ36 to SZ34, wanted to make sure I could move through SZ35 on non-com? And last, on factory placements, I had the thinking of the old way of placement, looking for optimal economical value of a territory. I just wanted to make sure that I could have placed a Minor IC in Kwangsi and not Kiangsu, disregarding the territory value?
Thank you Stalingradski for help on the above. And now onto the USA.
-
Yes - SZ37 is ok for you to move into, if you have eligible movement left.
Yes, battleships can move through SZ35 when you’re not at war (or even if you were - no surface ships there).
And on IC placements, a 2 or 3 IPC (or more + non-island) territory can take an IC. Majors are very limited now… Japan can only build a major on Korea, and everything else is limited to a minor. So, the Mancurian IC will always be limited to a production of 3 units.
U.S.!

US 2 purchases Carrier, Transport, Sub, 2 Fighters, Infantry = 52 IPCs.
NCM, place, collect 52 IPCs.
The U.S. newspapers are wondering what happened to Hirohito, and who is this new General?
All materiel is flowing to the Pacific…

They’re staring down the barrel of the Japanese gun.

A good turn. The battle in Kenya was an extra 5 for UK, plus kept an armor… the power of a single dice roll!
UK London collects 31 + 5 NO = 36 IPCs.

I need to pay more attention… I left 2 Anzacian fighters on New Zealand last round… ugh.

France moves away from combat, or digs in, or makes croissants for the Brits.
Germany 3 is up… why did Italy sink our Cruiser…? Â :-)

In backing our bloodthirsty allies, the Italians, Germany declares war on the USSR. Turn 3 purchases: 10 Infantry, 3 U-boats, 1 Destroyer for 56 IPC’s.

Units adjusted & placed, all non-com done. Germany collects 54 IPC’s at turn 3 end. Thus Germany thrust into bloody conflict by their unyielding Italian allies.
USSR…
-
I was just checking the map, and it appears that my placements were not saved. I have revised the map, and it now shows my 10 Infantry placement in Germany, along with 3 U-boats in SZ105, and 1 Destroyer in SZ93.
I am sorry for the confusion.
-
J - SZ109 is protected by an airbase - I could have scrambled 3 fighters into the SZ. Based on what you brought, I would have. All the rest of the battles should stay as they are, but please redo SZ109. You’ll need to bring enough stuff to make sure I don’t want to scramble… :)
