Thanks Krieghund.

You give the answer yourself. It’s not possible.

Just curious, did Japan land on Australia or simply threatened to? What moves were made?

@MaherC:

@zarnak

So you guys are taking a game that most people already believe is Allied favored, and making it even more so?

I pity your Jap player

In my second game Japan overran India by turn four.  China lived to turn 7.  That’s with the first turn income NO boost.  Japan owned the Dutch East Indies for a good while.  It’s income matched US/ANZAC put together and it was a nail biter for a good while with Australia repulsing attacks.  He finally made a tactical error with his navy that allowed the economic seesaw to finally move towards the allies.  With the DEI, China, and India Japan has an income in the mid-70s.

Besides- if China is at war with Japan since 1937 and gets 6 bonus IPC for having the Burma road open - and it’s open to start.  Why not?  And the scramble rule as is is not popular either.

@Krieghund:

I’ve been thinking about this some more, and I have some further thoughts.

I don’t think that UK/ANZAC planes should be allowed to land on Dutch or French territories while they’re still Dutch or French controlled, unless they are at war.

I assume the Dutch have already lost their capital.

How does one declared war on a fallen country?

Unless the UK and ANZAC are at war, not the Dutch or French.

Thank you.

@Brain:

Kamikaze’s are fun, but they are an act of desperation.

Right on dude, they sure are fun. And in this new edition, we will use the same system as in the old edition, with 6 kamikaze raids in the sea zones that are adjacent to the Japanese home territory, and they still will be able to target the infidels.

I did a couple solo games when I first got AA50 it seemed to help. Its kind weird when you set up a strat then change it just to mess your self up.

nope, never have.

@U-505:

Actually, I am the first and only person ever in the history of the game to CHOOSE not to kill the Chinese fighter. Don’t try to deny me. I have proof. :-D

And for the record, what exactly do the designers have against the Flying Tigers that they would put them in such a threatened position in every game they make?

Welcome to the “I-don’t-destroy-the-chinese-figther-in-game-turn-1-club”.

This figther is no risk cause it can’t leave china.

@Driel310:

To add to that, putting in an extra DD in SZ15 makes a shitload of difference since Germany is now unable to attack Egypt on G1, making life hard on Italy as you described.

Of course you have all the liberty of the world to guess the correct setup as we don’t know the whole true one, but this change is so big impact on game balance is very substantial.  :wink:

p.s. trust me, if Japan wants, India will fall on J2. Only the Russians can prevent that, but I doubt they can spare the troops.

Did you play it with this DD in SZ 15?  When did you take egypt?

I am not shure to sacrify the german bomber for a landing operation in turn 1…

No we did not. We used the R9 version of the map Bluestroke made. We believe that is the only setup that has some basis, the pictures from GenCon. Any changes to that setup (although we got confirmed there are some) are pure speculation.

And unless you are unlucky, Germany should not push the Egypt attack until the bomber dies too.

I need one to re-desing it on the computer.

Maybe I should use a scanner…
