A small request

@barnee

Its a lot easier, fly from midway and land in russia. Not ideal but its a lot easier then the doolittleraid where they had to travel halfway between midway and japan just to fly the bombers.

@Olmate
Welcome to the forum.

The rulebook should be clarification enough (1940 Pac.2nd ed., page 15):
“A quick reaction team of no more than 3 defending fighters and/or tactical bombers (strategic bombers can’t scramble) located on each island or coastal territory that has an operative air base can be scrambled to defend against attacks in the sea zones adjacent to those territories.”

As you correctly stated this wording clearly doesn’t include fighters located on carriers in seazones.

Why should something not being part of the rules be explicitly stated in the rulebook? Or in any FAQ/Errata when the wording of the rule is clear enough? There are hundreds of House Rules that might fill what people are missing being included in game rules / rulebooks.

There of course exist player created variants of Global1940 that have scrambling from carriers included.

Thanks for the tip there GHG…~!~ :wink:

From pg 28 of the 2nd edition Europe rules;

Blitz: A mechanized infantry unit must normally stop
when it enters an enemy controlled territory. However,
when paired one-for-one with a tank, it can make a blitz
movement (see “Tanks,” page 29) along with that tank.
The movement of both units must start and end in the
same territories.

@Uncrustable:

US can collect income on france tts ???

Where have i been lol ?

Yep, so can the UK, Anz, or Russia. They have to liberate them from the axis though. If the axis don’t take them from the French, then the allies can’t liberate them to collect while Paris is in axis hands.

BTW with alpha rules when Paris is liberated, the French also get to immediately drop 12 IPCs worth of units (it’s 4 inf w/OOB) on the tt of France (Paris). They only get to do this once, the first time Paris is liberated. So if the US liberates Paris, the French get to place these units immediately during the US turn right after the US wins the battle. If the UK is also ready to reinforce Paris with more units/air on their turn the allies may be able to hold it, depending on how prepared the Euro axis are.

@Krieghund:

Units belonging to other powers may not move into territories belonging to a neutral power.  The most recent alpha setup can be found here.

This is also the other way round, right? With the exception of sea units. And even then, the attacker could ignore the ‘neutral’ sea units if for example German launch naval attack on a UK fleet where there is also a neutral Russian or US ship.

sweet  :mrgreen:

Could you tell me a bit more about your set?

How many people can play? Do you have any pictures of them (or maybe your complete setup?)

Thanks once again!

@SgtBlitz:

HAHA big whoop for you.  At least YOU get to display a .gif avatar, the rest of us only get crappy .jpgs now.  Not even fair, we couldn’t display something like this even if we wanted to.  More like gloating that you can display it while we peons can’t.

Don’t listen to this guy Bob, he’s just butthurt that they outlawed tortilla throwing in Lubbock.
