I guess you’ll be committing planes to “alexandia’s” airbase… but still…
LAW SEVEN
At the CONCLUSION of this German Turn:
And
This is going to make for some Great LOL’s…
Actually…
I present BROTHERS IN ARMS with the choice.
SUB or DESTROYER. It’s up to them. For good sportsmanship. :)
As for the other curse-ed lot… well. NO CHOICE for you. :)
psst - take the sub! :D You’ll have more fun.
I am unfamiliar with this “Law Seven”
Why are Italian units going to china and french units going on the board?
Law seven is supposed to compensate for bad luck, and help make the games more fun.
No scramble, I’ll keep my planes alive and unused instead of used and dead for now. (perhaps I’ll use them later, who knows?)
I think we’ll chose the submarine. I’ll just pretend it’s the Quebecois war effort kicking in. (Not sure how to justify the Italians in China though…)

Yeah… is there any opposition to us just playing out the game as-is? I am not upset about the way dice have been. In fact it is really bad or good dice that MAKES the game fun and interesting. If dice are crazy sometimes (as they have been) I think it actually REMOVES the incentive to alter the game to make it more fun.
Thoughts everyone?
Kyle are you REVOLTING against me? :)
:D
Ok…
That said, I digress, it’s my hope your all here having fun.
If all of you are in agreement, who am I to interfere with consensus? and good gaming? you may proceed with no alterations.
But I expect the holiest of holies, may want to holy on to his vision of an Italo-Pacific campaign.
Rule #7 only exists to mitigate total dice rape, and present players with unique - character building and thought testing experiences.
I’ll leave it with all of you. :) Great game by the way guys…
I will continue with the game as is for now. If anyone has strong feelings about more French units or Italians in China we can work out the details later.
For now…
Fine Churchill, hang that Navy out to dry once again. But mark my words. I’m gonna get that RAF if it’s the last thing I dooooo!

Germany has decided enough blood has been shed in Syria while good nations do nothing but squabble!
The Germans have overthrown Bashad the Butcher! Now the question remains: will the Russians accept the peace of the new order or continue to meddle in Syrian affairs at the expense of thousands of defenceless civilians?
We await the response…
Also, since it appears that the game is NOT adding the +2 for SBR, I think we should start using edit mode to alter PU’s, on the turn that the SBR happens. I’ll remove two British IPC’s now. Also, what is the consensus about The rule # 7 changes on your team? My team doesn’t mind passing up on the changes if you guys don’t want them. I’ll start my Russia turn, and we can always add the units later I you guy’s want them.

Summary Text: Connection timed out: connect
someone is running v2.6 that’s why the +2 isn’t being applied. It’s probably too late to fix this it will have to be done in edit mode.
As to the Italian tank in Hong Kong. I’d love it if the French ship wasn’t added but the French navy only rolls one’s LOL
Yeah, sorry. It’s me on 2.6.
Egypt factory should have 6 damage.
I guess it will just be a slight inconveneince from here on. My apologies.
Quick rules clarification for Garg or anyone else who is certain:
So if Russia attacks Chinese territories bordering Mongolia BEFORE Japan opens hostilities on the Russians, Japan then has a carte-blanc to attack any Russian territories WITHOUT triggering the activiation of Mongolia, right?
I have already posted publicly so if we are not sure hopefully Kreighund will get around it it.
IF Russia DOW’s on Japan, the gloves are off, and Mongolia will remain Neutral FOREVER.
If Japan DOW’s on Russia, Mongolia does not join UNTIL Japan has attacked any territory bordering Mongolia. Russia is free to respond however they like at that stage, and still retain the possibility of the Mongolian Annex.
(Hint) If Italy or Germany invades Soviet Russia, Japan can travel through axis territories WITHOUT causing a DOW. Even if they border Mongolia.
:)
Cool, thanks G.
