A sub question

:-D
In the movie; Battle of the Bulge, there is a scene where the german generals are discussing this story about the chocolate cake, still very fresh, ( I think they may have actually eaten it) and saying if the Americans have ample resources to spend on shipping cake to their soldiers then we are lost. Something to that effect anyway.
Another story, off topic, sorta, is that some bomber crews were talking about all the different kinds of ordanance that we were dropping on germany, and one crewman said, “We’ve dropped everything but the kitchen sink!” So on the next mission, you guessed it, they brought along a kitchen sink and threw it out one of the side gun windows during Bombs Away! :roll:

You can only place ANY units purchased at an IC controlled by the nations who’s turn it is.

There are numerous errors in the rule book that comes with the game.  You may want to check out Larry Harris Tournament Rules (which are available from a link on the main page of this website).

The only “opening fire” that repeats after the first round of combat is Submarine Sneak Attack.

BB Shore Bombardment and AA fire are limited to only opening fire of the first round of combat.

If a transport LOADS during Combat movement, it must OFFLOAD in Combat Movement also (i.e. amphib assault).

Spend like crazy!

Two exceptions:

1.  Sometimes, you need to go pure defense with Russsia.  When doing so, if you have 17 IPC, you spend 15 to get 5 infantry, and save 2 IPC.  Next turn, with another 17 IPC income, you will have 19 IPC, allowing you to get 6 infantry.

2.  Sometimes, you want to be able to switch fronts with the US.  So you don’t spend a lot first turn, then second turn, you commit to either Atlantic or Pacific.  (If you do spend in the Atlantic on US1, it takes TWO turns to sail to the Pacific, and vice versa).

In general, it is not a good idea to save.

UNLESS UR JESUS!

I think we could probably devote a whole board to the sub rules. I think in Classic (bot many games of Classic under the belt went to that backwards via Europe) subs could come into a zone, shoot, and leave without being shot at. Not sure on that though.

Our problem was we were not conducting opening fire every round that subs were still on the battle board. We would have opening shots then treat them just like any other naval units.

The sub rules are different in all four versions of the game with subs that much I’m very clear on. The sub rules for Revised I’m very clear on because I think they are the cleanest.

Thank you for that Grime, saved me the effort :-)

Yes.

About half way down, the first 2 or 3 paragraphs on non-combat movement are explicit.
