Can a damaged battleship still attack? -AAG40

@PhillyPlayer

Hi Player

Yea, after you lose your capital you can’t collect any dough until it’s liberated.

I play every weekend on the table top when we get bored with the latest Alpha we’ll change it up and do any one of the different versions,  original OOB from the first release to Oztea’s 41 set up, theres also games like fortress America….or the old classic. I dont think I’ll ever get bored with the games.

And what happens if Japan attacks Amur and Mongolia in the same turn ? Or are they “speciel” neutral ?

All of the other strict neutrals will become pro-Allies, and the remaining Mongolian territories will become controlled by the USSR.

This sums it up.

I don’t see a reason to expose your fleet early as Japan.  That said, even playing games with the Americans, albeit fun; is counterproductive.

You don’t gain much as you can still bait the US into buy full Pacific early in the game against a well-versed player, so that school of thought is out.

Carolines don’t come into play until much later in the game (read securing Calcutta) and VC win is Hawaii or Sydney.  However, I’m banking that Hawaii is “easier” to take once removing the fleet than Sydney.  This is primarily due to the Minor IC being able to put out multiple units round after round until you arrive with an Amphib that requires the Carolines.

Its much easier to go after Hawaii as it is a single move from Tokyo anyways (barring any blocks).  Having to fight for the Carolines and then Sydney seems less… efficient?

Makes sense for Japan to take it, of course, but it’s strategically and logistically implausible that they will get the DEI for more than one turn and never again thereafter.

They can only ask the Germans for permission to do so,  Germany can grant or deny this movement.

Regardless of the German decision, Russia stay’s neutral.

@cminke:

leave a inf on ever 2nd row of teratoies.  if they destroythe first move the secon in. counters blitzing and doesent waste too many inf

An enemy ank might even stop in the first territory, even when the 2nd territory is open (if behind that you have enough forces, the tank will be dead ehh…. metal)

So it all depends on location and situation.

Filling évery territory is of course an insane idea

to Bodeacious:

In strategy B the philipines will be a target in J3. Most US-Players evacuate the plane from the Phillipine Islands.

to Bodeacious/Blitchga:

said before: Do not leave you transport undefended at the coast of French-Indo-China!

BB+CA+DD+DD+SS+SS+CV(2 Planes) is the minimum of ships you have to leave in the Sae zone to prevent an UK first strike.
