  • and just like that, i’m finding myself confronted with 3 sea lion games in BM……it’s as if BM is out to prove something  :lol:

  • '15

    I’ve been doing it more in Balanced Mod games too.

    Maybe it’s because without a bid, Italy’s navy sticks around?

    It might have something to do with your greedy UK1s  :lol:.


  • never mind, make that only 2 SL games, roboto declined my invitations haha

    well i think it’ll be interesting to test SL out in the mod version, see where it takes us. i find SL games particularly fun

    If sealion seems more attractive, it may be because Germany’s other options are not necessarily as slam dunk as they once were. Also, J1DOW is not as overpowered. Also, Axis Dominion’s UK is a greedy mofo and had it coming!

    No bids means danger for Cairo, serious danger.

    Maybe many Balanced mod Allies player are investing too much to strengthen the position in Africa / Middle East, which makes Sealion very attractive


  • actually, I think the Axis Dominion game will be my first League BM game involving a sealion. . .

  • '22 '16

    Can anybody remind me how to roll dice in the forum?  Thanks

  • '19 '18

    It’s for example

    “:“aaa 1@2 8@3 9@4”:”

    (Without the " of course)

    Question regarding the pro alleis. If Germany wants to pass trough Northwest Persia. It has to conquer it and next turn they can move on right. At the start of Germany’s turn nwp is still pro allies. So they can’t blitz trough?

  • '19 '17

    Germany can blitz through NW Persia because NW Persia is an enemy territory simply. It’s the Allies that can’t blitz through pro-Allied territories and vice-versa for Axis.

  • '21 '20 '19 '18 '17 '16

    Ok thank you, and if the Caucasus is still russian, can uk first take nwp with an inf and then ncm a tank to the Caucasus

  • '19 '17

    Nope that’s illegal. A useful trick to see if something is legal or not is if it’s possible to invert the order of the moves (since all NCM moves are simultaneous). In this case, the tank can’t reach Caucasus since NW Persia is still pro-Allies, so the move is illegal.


  • on US turn i DOW on the neutrals, and i see triplea is letting me fly planes from india to moscow (over afghan)…this is legit?

  • '15

    I believe so.  Now that the Allies have DOW the neutrals, the Axis can land planes there too.

  • '19 '17

    No it’s not correct, neutrals need to be attacked to actually side with the other side. Until they are attacked, no one can fly over them and no one can land on them. Once they are attacked by the Allies for example, everyone can fly over and Axis can land planes in the territory.

  • '15

    You mean that specific neutral (Afghanistan in this case) would need to be attacked before it can be flown over, correct?

  • '19 '17

    Yeah.


  • But don’t miss this fact -
    It is legal to attack Afghanistan and with whatever (USA in this instance) planes you attack Afghanistan with, they may fly off in any direction, so could effectively fly between India and Moscow.  But no other planes can fly over it (any plane that did not end the combat movement phase over Afghanistan), including in non-com because it was neutral at the start of the turn Oops - didn’t get this right from memory.  3c is worded perfectly though

    I’m guessing from the wording of dominion’s question that you weren’t attacking Afghanistan with the USA, though

    Doesn’t this ^ go against what you say here: ‘‘c) You CAN fly over a neutral that has been attacked previously, because it is actually no longer a neutral even if it was not conquered.  It has joined the opposing side.  You can do this in the non-combat move immediately following the attack.’’?
