    @FlyingBadger darn, I was so focused on London that I only saw your posted photo of Dad’s Army and did not notice that you already posted Russia…

    Your Chinese infantrymen should drink less rice schnapps ;-)

    Yes, I think the Nationalist and Communists were too busy fighting each other to notice all the Japanese planes…


  • @flyingbadger I am struggling a bit with the rules. Is it legal to eliminate a blocker with a combat move and then pass through the no longer blocked SZ in the non-combat phase?

    As far as I understand it, yes this is correct. Some units can clear a SZ in the combat phase, then other units can pass through that SZ in non-combat phase. Are you asking about something we have already done, or you are thinking of doing?

    It works well with planes as they can keep moving after combat.

    Just keep your Russian armies away from our border!

    Stalin is happily watching the other powers attack each other, Mussolini is probably fancying his chances too (until the firing starts).

    Britain stands ready…


  • @flyingbadger hmm, the presence of the British Navy seems to make Sea Lion impossible - for now. Let’s see what I come up with. I won’t be able to make this German turn on the side and need to wait until the imperialist and communist enemies are sleeping.

    Interesting, trying to outflank the Russians with a big left hook.

    Scramble 3 fighters please, 2 UK and 1 French. Max defense on the OOL:

    • damage the carrier
    • lose 2 destroyers
    • lose the carrier
    • lose 1 destroyer
    • lose 2 crusiers
    • lose the French fighter
    • lose the UK fighters

    Think that covers everything.


  • @flyingbadger does the sub stay or submerge?
