Tech questions

My play group runs out of Japanese tanks. They usually get two IC’s in Asia, and go for the tank March to Moscow. I scavenged extra tanks and roundels from my original Axis and Allies game.

@slo:

how do you keep track of the NO’s, and how do you keep track of the income from them, do you include it on the IPC chart?

In the 1941 setup for example, the USA gets 40 ipc….they also have automatically completed a NO bye controlling the usa…so would you mark 40 or 45 om the ipc chart?

The IPC chart is a tool to help determine one’s IPCs they will collect at the end of their turn.  These are always in play (part of the base rules).  National Objectives are an optional rule, and are not tracked via the IPC chart.  You simply determine which NO bonus you have achieved and add those extra IPCs to your IPCs from the chart to get your IPCs awarded/collected at turns end.  Add this to whatever unspent IPCs that you have remaining, and now you know your total you can spend the next turn.

UK cannot land there because they did not own it at the beginning of their turn. US comes after them in the order.
You found the relevant rule and quoted it.

@katfishkris:

i dont think china really had 15inf.  more like 6-7.  but those 6 or 7 inf wanted to attack manchuria,  which had something like 3arm & 2inf.  the US wanted to use their long range heavy bombers to blast the japs first, followed by the chinamen to take the IC.  wasnt sure what the rule was on that ‘combined’ attack.

That’s still a lot of Chinamen.  I’m lucky if I have 2 or 3…hehe.  Seems a risky proposition to use your Heavy bombers, the Manchuria IC is useless to the allies.  Depriving it to Japan could be usefull, and might be worth sacraficing a bomber.  All depends on what else was going on.

now now, lets not make fun of virgins.  i’m playing joe cold, i think i’m doing alright, but its just about to be rnd 3, and this is where the allies usually get it together.  we’ll see.

free 1d6 dmg to each IC in range is pretty good if you ask me. japan and usa need to do some shuffling if they get this, but everyone else gets to start shooting right away

@Krieghund:

Yes, they do.

If the UK is still in control of France at the Collect Income phase of the US.

We found the ultimate gamebreaking tech when we played yesterday. My team-mate and I were in the lead with the Axis, and everything was going smooth. Germany had two bombers in Germany and UK only had two bombers and a few inf. in UK. The German player rolled the paratrooper tech  :-D

5 seconds later both bombers was shot down by AA-gun fire and we lost the combat, turning the tide of the battle and after 3-4 more rounds we lost…
