Question on newly occupied territory after combat phase

@Rescue55-joe I believe the “10 IPCs for each country” that you are referring to are actually the National Control Markers, which are used to track both conquered territories and national production levels. As barnee pointed out, IPCs are not physically provided, and the Rulebook instructs us to track them on paper, but any proxy (such as Monopoly money) will do. See page 7 of the Rulebook for details on both National Control Markers and IPCs.

In a nutshell, the National Production Track is used to chart your “income” using a National Control Marker. and every turn the “money” goes into your “bank account”, which is represented by IPCs, where it can be spent on new units (or saved for later).

I hope this helps.

Thanks for the help and thank you!

@Benito:

Basically what I’ve done. (Buy 1942 then get 1941)
Can’t wait to get those Tigers for 1942!!!

Ya… I liked the Tigers from 1941 so much, I bought extra ones from HBG. All my tank bins for each country has 30 tanks in them, and I’m pretty sure I got like 10 Tigers and 20 Panthers in my German one (I think 1941 only comes with 5 Tigers… I had to buy more from HBG).

@HansOop:

I think I know the answer to my own question and the answer is I have no option but to engage in dice battle and to either keep battling or retreat back to where I came from.

Right, the purpose of the Combat Move Phase is to move into hostile territories to either initiate combat (against hostile units) or just capture the territory (in case there are no enemy combat units present).

Welcome to the forum  :-)

@Private:

And just to clarify yet further - the sub is not flying either! :-D

You obviously didn’t roll as well as I did during the Research phase…

I have played a few games with the added units for the allies and still find it very hard for the allies to win.
Our group added one more soviet infantry in Soviet far east and moved one of the infantry in Siberia to Urals.

Our version of the Non-Aggression pact was changed to:
The USSR may attack Japan only if Germany has been reduced to holding territories worth a combined 5 IPCs or less.
Japan may attack the USSR only if the USSR has been reduced to holding territories worth a combined 4 IPCs or less.

That’s what I thought, but I was hoping I was wrong so I could pick up 3 IPCs in one move.

Thanks!

If the enemy sub doesn’t choose to submerge first, both ships can attack it.  Only air units require a destroyer to allow them to attack subs.
