What happens when a french troop is on a territory that is turned vichy

@hbg-gw-enthusiast Yeah, I looked it up. The FAQ is correct, Free France has a unique rule where it must be its capital.

Yes it appears it was accidently removed, see the errata.

@noneshallpass thanks guys. I had a game where I was chasing the Utti jaegers all over Finland for a few turns kind of frustrating lol they’re near impossible to knock out if they can just retreat immediately and stack up

@chris_henry said in Using Aircraft More Than Once in a Turn:

I’d think they get one defensive action, and it’s up to the defender which one it is they’d like to do.

Oh i agree, i just think its worded poorly. 9.17 just needs a “as per the interception process in table 9-9”

@trig

FAQ has been updated.

Q: Can two nations that share turns attack the same land zone if they are

forbidden to attack together per 6.1 (i.e. USA and minor power KMT)?

A: No.

Of course this doesn’t solve the issue of say, vichy france and Germany attacking the same free french zone, as thats not forbidden in 6.1 (as far as i can tell)

@adalwolf

I attacked Poland (and warsaw) in July ‘39, the turn After I attacked Paris

@Caesar-Seriona I think you need to re-read the rule, it does not say you can only send to one nation. What the rule states is that, when you do Lend Lease to a nation, you can send that nation one unit or up to half that nations income. But you can do that same process multiple times.

Language from the book here:

7.8 Lend-Lease: During the Production Phase nations may lend money (IPPs) or military
equipment to other Major and Minor Powers.
Requirements: A nation can lend-lease to a nation under the following conditions:
(a) The receiving nation is at war with a Major Power or,
(b) A special circumstance (e.g. Spanish Civil War) allows a
nation to lend-lease.
A nation may not lend-lease to itself or to Aligned minors (since
they are technically also part of that nation). Britain cannot lendlease to the FEC or ANZAC.
Declaration: A player must announce his intention to lend-lease at
the start of the turn. You may lend either;
(a) Up to half the receiving nation’s current income in IPPs (not
counting bonus income), rounding fractions up. Or,
(b) One military unit. Such a unit must be produced at a factory in the Home Nation
specifically for the purpose of lending. You may not lend-lease units already on the
board.

It does not specify that you can only Lend Lease to a single nation. So that might help clear it up a bit. The USA can Lend Lease to China, USSR, UK, and Free France all in the same turn if it wants to, for example.

I guess I still don’t follow the logic on allowing Free France a free reign to take out Vichy though. I’m not saying the money from Vichy makes or breaks Germany winning, but it just doesn’t make any sense to allow the Allies to just take all the territory essentially for free while Germany can’t do anything about it. But we may have to just agree to disagree on that one. :grinning:

@sjelso:

Here is what I did with magnets (some videos).  Had my board printed on steel.  Has worked well.  I think I will might do flags instead of the chips/tokens.  I kinda went overboard but once I began…well…

It makes playing easier, no chips to deal with.

That exactly what I ended up doing for my aircraft. With the longer magnets.
