There are currently 4 1/2 bags of chips available as of this morning.

FYI, HBG has a few sets of chips up for purchase. They appear to be going quick!

You will need more chips for sure. If I am not mistaken all the dark red are used up just for the setup. I just purchased two orders worth from HGB a couple of days a go.

I have not received my copy yet to read up on the rules, but what you are describing sounds like the canal rule. I am assuming you must controle both sides in order to pass through?

They are all new units but are reprints of exisitng classes/types.

In Atlantic County just outside of Atlantic City.

It seems to me that this one one of those exceptionally rare ocassions that each of those groups played a critical role in the outcome. I would have to say that if so much as one aspect changed due to any of the them, the outcome could have and would have been far different. This would be especialy true as you get closer to the start of the chain of events with code breaking. It comes down to each set of people being in the right place and at the right time to make the battle go as it it did.

Page 21 - National Objectives & Bonus Income - United States:  The second sentence of the first bullet point should read “This wartime economy takes effect during the first U.S. turn that follows an unprovoked Japanese attack on any Allied-controlled ship or territory (not including China or the French territories), or on the U.S.’s third turn, whichever comes first.”  (If the United Kingdom or ANZAC attacks Japan first, Japan may respond without bringing the United States into the war.)

I am looking to see if I understand the above correctly:

1. If Japan should attack the US on turn 1, the US does not collect its extra 40 bonus until round 2 of its collect income phase?

2. On round three, if not attacked by Japan, the US does collect its extra 40 income, therefore being able to spend it round 4 to purchase units?

3. If Japan attackes the US on round 3, the US does not get the actual extra 40 income until its collect income phase in round 4?

My apaolgies if I am beating a dead horse, but I just need to make sure I fully understand the rule.

If I remember correctly, even when not at war the allied powers may not move through waters that contains a Japanse surface warship. So, if that is true, Japan could place ships around the Dutch islands as to try and prevent them from being taken? This would help to prevent the ANZAC/GB powers from aquiring additional funds unless they attack & go to war with Japan. If one wanted as Japan, you could attempt to form a blackade accross as much as possible in the Pacific. Of course Japan would need to be ready to go to war with ANZAC/GB should it turn hostile. Does anyone see this idea as having any merit?
