Hiya Forum,

A quick question… when we play the game, we always seam to take hours and hours to play, and most times it’s too late to continue as the game has dragged on, so we just stop at a point of end of a round and pack it in ( due to it’s 3 in the morning of a solid 8 hour game ), and then we discuss what WOULD of happened if we continues, and how many more rounds it would take for each side to eventualy win.

So how can we simply speed up things…? We hear it can be done in the tops of 3-4 hours. What are we doing wrong…? Did you ever have this problem…? How did you solve this and still keep it an exciting game?

Thanks,

Sala33.

Hiya friends at the Forums,

So we played last night and we came accross an un-unsure how to play a rule, and it was the Breakthrough Chart 1 - Rockets.

So what are the steps after you get this special move…? Understand you can bomb the Industrial Complex within a range of three, and 1d6 ( roll of one die )…? But do you have to have a bomber in place to use this special feature…?
The wording is terrible in the rules ( and we read the extra rules too, and still didn’t make sence! )

Please help anyone!

Thanks…!

Tarling,

Thanks for the help and also Captainjack. Reading the rules made me question and wanted to get another oppinion!

BTW Captainjack, DD meaning Defending Destroyers, so planes can’t shoot subs if there is enemy Destroyer presant in same sea zone in the whole game, or is it just in this only situation with the AC.

Okay, Reversing the question my original question, if you’re attacking AC with fighters on board, do you use your fighters on AC in battle as well…?

When aircraft carriers are under attack, and have fighters on board ( your own fighter’s/ and friendly fighter ), can the fighter defend in there usual defend mannor, or are they sitting ducks and in use for a hit if the carrier gets hit ( if you choose not to fly them to a near by safe ground before the battle ) ?

1. *Battleship/Cruise bombarbment: If you have only ONE transporter, and in support 7 Battleships and 5 Cruisers, do all Battleships and Crusisers take place in the shore Bombarbment?

2. And if your transporter has your infintry and a friendly tank, do all the units get off loaded in that turn?
   If so, does the friendly unit then fight with your attack on the land, or does it stay out of the battle till that players turn

3. When a shore bombarbment takes place and the attacker hits defending shore units, do the shore units get a chance to fire back, or are they taken off the board straight away?

Is there somewhere online that has all the new/revised rules of AA50 compared to AAR?

my sub is being attacked by a bunch of boats (no destroyers). can I take a first strike than submerge right away without battle. or if i take a first strike i have to participate it combat?

2 questions
1. china receives 1 infantry per 2 territories they control. so if china controls 5 territories do they get 3 infantry or 2?

2. national objectives - do you calculate bonus income at the end of every turn? because in the first round  i found that you normally have all your objectives still if not majority of them. so for USA they would get their normal income plus 20 IPC??

thanks in advance for your response. S

i know a german warship can move thru a sea zone that has 2 UK transporters without having to stop, but can the UK transporters move through a sea zone with a german warship?

what if in this case USA didn’t have any of their units on the board?
do they get income back and start rebuilding?

japan took washington. i’m usa and gave all my money to japan. i still have 6 boats and 3 fighters. UK player gets washington back. does usa know start collecting money on the lands he now owns?

can anti aircrafts guns defend from land units? i have an anti aircraft and 3 tanks and i’m being attacked. do i roll for the ant aircraft?

can the anti aircraft gun be taken as a casualty?

i’m soviet and attached germany. can the german player take his gun as a hit as oppose to the tank?

also can the anti aircraft defend against land units?

you have an anti-aircraft gun on a transporter in transit.

if enemy planes fly over is the anti-aircraft gun active? can the anti-aircraft gun shoot down any attacking planes or enemy planes flying over the sea zone?

ok i think i’m in trouble!
i have 2 aircraft carriers carrying 2 fighters each. americans are attacking me. if i loose the aircraft carriers does that mean i lose my fighters too :(

just to clarify….if i’m usa and i own most of easter pacific is it possible for a fighter to go from midway to new zealand …providing i own all sea zones to get there (and new zealand)

i’m a bit confused on how planes work between islands.

however can someone please help on the following:

1. how many movements does it take to move from wake island to marshall island ?
2. how many movements does it take to move from ryukyu island to korea?
3. formosa to java?

thanks, s

ok so if tokyo is still in usa hands, and german is slowly taking over japan from the usa (but hasn’t yet captured tokyo back) all IPC’s are going to germany? once germany gets tokyo back from usa japan is back in the game with IPCs and all japan land that germany captured is now japan’s? (and the IPC are subtracted from germany)?

just so I get this straight. usa has taken over all japan’s originally own territories. japan has no men left. german comes in and slowly re-claims japan territories - either by battle or just blitz through them with tanks. however german does not have tokyo yet. all these territories that japan originally had and german has taken them over from usa are now back in japan hands and japan collects ipc? (even though they can’t actually can’t claim their ipc cuz they have lost tokyo). am i correct?
