Gamerman's G40 Laegue House Rules Playtest Shin Ji (Axis) vs Nozdormu (Allies)

@Shin:

Mongolia found an alien cache, eh?  Better step lightly around them I suppose.

Damn, that was some rolling!

I wouldn’t have minded to lose a plain or two to kill that fleet. Even then it would have been worth it. Not losing any planes at all is just gravy. I am kinda wondering how you plan on turning it around. I think the fact the uk pacific has less means to defend itself makes for a better game at this point, but it will still be hard to win as Japan I think. Also those fighter chits the Chinese still have, will make it hard for you to take India.

As for the Mongolians. They have been saving for a rainy day.

No and technically you aren’t allowed to do a non-combat move during the combat phase :-D

@Shin:

Heh.  Is that actually not allowed or just ill-advised?

I’m so impatient.   :mrgreen:

It is against the rules to do so. Usually players don’t mind, but it is better if you learn to do it properly.

Besides it is in your own interest to wait with ncms. If something doesn’t go according to plan, you can alter it accordingly  :-)
