@simon33 said in L25 G40 OOB Simon33 (L+44) v BobbaRossa (X):
Oh I am wondering if I am doomed in this game already.
Certainly anything can happen with the dice, but the odds are looking a bit long.
@nikola1975 Thanks! You’ve left me with some interesting choices as well - scrambles?
@nikola1975 Oh, and I will probably need OOL as well.

@nikola1975 Sorry for the edits - it should have let me fly the bombers over Syria, but the game wasn’t coded for that. So I just fixed the landing part.
Hm, are you sure about that? I thought you are not able to fly over neutral territories.
Can you check that?
https://axisallies.com/global-1940-second-edition-rules/
“Moving into a neutral territory is considered a combat move, and any combat must be resolved during the conduct combat phase (see ‘Combat Move‘). Before the neutral territory can be taken control of by the invading power, all of the neutral’s standing army units must be eliminated. Air units can’t fly over a neutral unless they are attacking it.”
@nikola1975 I did check it. In the Balance Mod rules post, it specifically mentions that the flyover rules for neutrals do not apply to Vichy France ones.
"Game Consequences of Franco-German Armistice
French Territorial Control: At the beginning of France’s first turn in which Armistice conditions are met, all originally French territories not already under Axis control immediately change ownership to Pro-Axis Neutrals, except: (1) French Equatorial Africa; (2) New Hebrides; (2) any French territories containing non-French allied land units.
Any non-French allied air units in Vichy-controlled territory are destroyed upon conversion of the territory to Vichy control.
With the exception of Southern France (see discussion of “Zone Libere” below), Vichy French territory operates the same way as other Pro-Axis Neutral territory. An Axis player may capture Vichy French territory and commandeer its forces by moving a land unit into the territory during the non-combat phase of his turn.
Fly-over restrictions applicable to other Neutral territories do not apply to Vichy French territory."

It is easily missed, that’s for sure! We’re playing PtV, which points to Balance Mod for that, and then it’s buried at the end of a few paragraphs, lol.
