I have a question about AA guns. If a territory has AA guns from more than one country, are they all treated as the same AA defense? Or do you count each nation’s AA gun separately?
For example: In oztea’s 1942 setup, India is defended by 2 UK AA Guns and 1 ANZAC AA gun. Normally, it would be up to 9 AA shots OR the number of planes if all 3 AA guns were from the same country. If you have AA guns from different countries, does it still work the same?
Say Japan attacks India with 5 aircraft. Since the UK has 2 AA guns, they would get 5 AA shots at the Japanese planes. Would the 1 ANZAC AA gun also get an additional 3 AA shots at the Japanese planes? Or would the ANZAC AA gun not shoot at all unless the Japanese came with 7 or more planes?
I know in Global 1940 this doesn’t really come up but in oztea’s 1942 setup, there is a lot of mixing of Allied forces right from the get-go.
@Cmdr:
Can you over fly a friendly neutral you are activating that round, during non-combat movement.
No.

Yes. They are all defending together as a group.
However, if some of them are radar, they would be rolled separately. You could have some AA hitting on a 1 and some on a 2.
If you had 1 radar unit and 1 non-radar unit and 5 planes flying overhead, you could roll 3 dice for the radar hitting on a 2, and 2 dice for the AA hitting on a 1
Do you have to declare all rocket attacks before rolling any of them?
Or can you pick one, roll it, then pick the next and roll it, etc.

Declare them all before rolling any of them.

Was the activation requirement removed in 2nd Edition? (Allies must capture/recapture certain island territories)
Also, what’s the best way to find answers in these forums? There are so many topics and replies I don’t know where to look sometimes other than the obvious places like this thread. The search bar powered by google is hit or miss unless you nail the key words. I feel like a lot of people are asking the same questions over and over again. It’s like I’m trying to find Waldo in a crowd full of submarine and transport questions.

Have you tried using the search in the toolbar above the Google search? You must be logged in to see it.

This one works very well. You can select only the G40 forums for your key word. I have had success the times I’ve used this button. (The one between “help” and “profile”)
You’re right, the “Google” search bar isn’t very effective for finding answers to rules questions.

That’s the problem. I have no “search” button. This what my toolbar looks like in both Firefox and Internet Explorer:
Home Help Profile My Messages Members Chat Logout
Hmmm. Perhaps it is only enabled after you reach a certain number of posts?
my tool bar is the same as mgonzo’s
the google search bar is not effective at finding information.
Wow, I feel special now!
I always wondered why people said the search was no good…. must be because they don’t have it on the toolbar!
I can’t think of any reason for this… Wouldn’t everyone’s be the same?? Curious…

I have a search button as well!!! wow, guess i’m special too. :lol:
There seems to be a pattern emerging here. Apparently only patrons (and other special people :wink:) have the search button enabled.
A very interesting hypothesis….
Can anyone confirm/deny?
I’ve got it, too.
no special search button here. I’ve always had to use that horrible google search option. but I’m not a patron. and apparently not special.
OK kcdzim, so what we need is for you to donate $50 to the site (or you can donate the bronze amount first and see if that works) and if you then get the search function, we will know for sure.
And yes, you should do it because you’re a rules deputy and that function would help you greatly. :-)
I have a question about where US ships can move before US enters war. From my understanding they can not enter a sea zone adjacent to a Japanese controlled sea zone. For instance does that mean they could not enter sea zone 6 but could enter one space next to it? Or does it mean they can’t move one space next to it as well while not at war?
Thanks,

@rulebook:
Political Situation: The United States begins the game at war with no one. In addition to the normal restrictions (see
“Powers Not at War with One Another,” page 15), while it’s not at war with Japan, the United States may not move any units
into or through China or end the movement of its sea units in sea zones that are adjacent to Japan-controlled territories. While
not at war with Germany or Italy, the United States may end the movement of its sea units on the Europe map only in sea
zones that are adjacent to U.S. territories, with one exception: U.S. warships (not transports) may also conduct long-range
patrols into sea zone 102.
So in your example US ships may enter SZ 6, but only if they are able to pass through it, as they may not end their movement there.
They may end their movement for example in SZ 7 or SZ 16 or SZ 18.
