When the French have fallen but their troops are still running around.

1.) When they take over Italian territiories, can the UK then take it for themselves if French move out.

2.) When US lands in Morrocco, can they take the French territiory if it was not first taken by Italy.

@calvinhobbesliker:

It’s not that hard to roll dice. For example, to roll 2 infantry, a tank, and a bomber, you’d type : aaa 2@1 1@3 1@4 : without the spaces

DiceRolls: 2@1 1@3 1@4; Total Hits: 32@1: (4, 1)1@3: (1)1@4: (1)
This also tells you how many hits you got

Perhaps if my computer and board were in the same room I’d be willing to do it, but since they aren’t I would have to write all the rounds down on paper and THEN type it out on the computer. I’ll probably just wait till my friends can get together to play it in person. Unless there is someone out there willing to play an email game without all the rounds of combat being shown?

Is that French aircraft carrier ever going to actually be built?

Oops, I guess you would just use the Italians….ok maybe fancy Chinese units :) I’ll try not to miss the obvious next time I post. Seriously, for those who get Italian and Russia piece colors mixed up, blue would be obvious in a homemade aa50.

Lets say you kept Italians in this set , and split the French pieces so you could have two games going…aae40 and aa50Homemade. Its a stretch.

Back to the point of this forum, I can see the option for France to build a carrier if they are not taken round 1…an Idea I have posted for speeding up a Russian invasion potentially. Granted it would probably be sank, but it could be built, now how about that French Battleship? :)

okay here is what I do take (1sub, 1fighter) to 109 (2subs, 1fighter, 1tatical) to 110 and 111 (battelship cruiser fighter tatical) to 112
(infantry, artillery) to Normandy (5infantry, artillery, 4 mech, 5tanks, bomber) to France

-this will let you take out most of the RN with just subs as loses and there will nothing that the U.K. can do take europe.
france will be controlled by Germany. just build a destoryer in seasone 112 to prevent fighter attack on your navy. build a minor factory in Romaina this will frist let you build units in a better position in eastern europe + let you build subs for the med. with this and Normandy you should be able to help out Italy enough

This game will likeley need a hammer approach to taking france rather than the funnel of transports

Because of the distance between the US, UK, and Normandy. The US fleet wont run like clockwork back and forth to canada like in other AA games.

There will be turns not enough transports can be filled because of logistics issues.
If you have the French INF in UK, and could get maybe 3 more, these units are insulated against combat when/if they land during an NCM move. And could be good fodder for the US/UK units there doing the real fighting.

im also thinking of the psycological impact on the german player. to add 4 infantry to france, then take paris and add 4 more? humliation combined with a useful stack to protect paris on the road to victory.

@Driel310:

They would need to take over Gibraltar first and then sail through the big Atlantic…… Not sure if they can pull this off before the USA kicks them out.

I know it’ll never happen. I just wanted to know for fun

Exactly- if you look at the hi-res pic of the board- it looks like the desert runs along the border between West and Central. While the border itself it bright blue (not covered by the white of the desert as it is along the SW border of Algeria) the desert looks like it covers the entire border on the FWA side- making a crossing impossible. But it Does need to be clarified.

Will there be units in Canadian territories

I don’t think there will be any Cdn Army units on the Pacific side.
Canada was totally KGF.
