Tanks blitzing and returning in the same turn

My newest Japan strategy. Do you worry about your fleet getting out of position trying to sack Calcutta? This strategy has almost your entire fleet back in SZ 6 end of J2 and Calcutta falls J6. (Or you can annihilate the Serbian army and then sack Calcutta turn 9)

@Corperal-Siggy-F said in Tank blitzing through newly conquered territory:

I have a question. Can you go into an unoccupeid unfriendly county with two tanks and than blitz each in a separate unfriendly contries to do combat?

For example go from Ukraine into Rostov with two tanks and then blitz to Volgorod with one tank and intop the Caucasus with the other?

Yep, you sure can.

@Saber25 said in 1940 Global: Can you place a minor production facility in a territory the same turn you capture it?:

The US has captured Norway, and then the next turn placed a factory. Is it legal for the US to deploy ships into seazone 113, which is inside of the Danish straight? Clearly they could not pass through without holding Denmark itself, but it seems to me that there is no reason that the US could not deploy to that zone for additional pressure on Germany!

You are correct. Since the ship is being built it does not have to pass through any strait. A minor factory in Norway may build up to 3 ships per Turn in either SZ126, SZ125, SZ112 or SZ113 or any combination thereof.

Right, during Noncombat Move the unescorted transport may offload into a friendly territory - ignoring an enemy submarine.

Thank you :-)

G42 is an A&A Global scenario, there hasn’t been any indication from Larry or his team that this rule set is compatible with the single 1940 theater games. If you find out otherwise, please share in the Global forum with any clarifications. G42 was created to shorten games during tournament play, dot sure if that lead is useful, but you can also ask at harrisgamedesign.com

If it’s just about the turn order, you can simply house rule it, or revert to the 2nd edition sequence… play a few times and see what works best would be my advice.

Cheers.

Here you go.  See if you can tweak your idea in case your opponent does a full out London defense.

Cheers

@Alsch91:

The interception/escorting dogfight stages occur before the bombers “split up” to strike their assigned targets.  Therefore those Tacs being used are actually able to take interceptor hits for Strategic bombers, even though they have different targets.

Huh, ya know, alright, you got me.  I personally haven’t ever done a split like that so I’d never thought about that/  Yea, ok, I’ll concede that point.  well played sir.  well played indeed.  I take it all back.  mea culpa, mea culpa.

I’ve deleted my flagrantly ill conceived rule interpretations, and will remember this the next time I consider SBRs…  boy, is my face red.

Thanks for the quick response.

Just figured I had to ask based on how (and this is if I remember correctly, of course) marines could be boosted to 3 in amphibious in the original Pacific game when supported by artillery.
