@crockett36 I’m gonna call a “check” here. The Russian capital is completely exposed to capture by the German tank in Ukraine SSR.

Thanks. How stupid! I’ll fix it after church. Where are my staff officers?

Thank you for the “check.” Much appreciated. I don’t find that often on the forums, but I’ve run into that kind of relaxed, game loving gentlemanliness across the board several times.

[The_Good_Captain]

@crockett36 to win by the “ha-ha-gotcha” is not to win at all… that’s my feeling anyway and I agree that it is one that is a minority.

G9hotroll.tsvg as explained above, I didn’t realize my practice turn was hooked up to the server. Let’s use this one as there was no change in moves/strats and is more generous to the allies to boot.

[crockett36]

Whatever is good.

[The_Good_Captain]

@crockett36 thanks - still prefer the first time I rolled on the active board given there was no change in strategy. I would say that regardless of dice results for either side.

in short, you’re clear to use the file just above your last post, “G9hotroll”

[crockett36]

Hey, so fun turn for me. Had a computer glitch. Take a look at the Russian turn. No purchase. Yet the income didn’t double. What do you think happened?

[crockett36]

US9ussr10.tsvg

[The_Good_Captain]

@crockett36 I dont believe there is any glitch - the Japanese rockets and heavy bombers eliminated the Russian income.

G10.tsvg

[The_Good_Captain]

@crockett36 I’m also going to have to call ‘foul’ on the submarine spam. The amount of subs is limited by the number of pieces in the game (not chips). Since only six sub groups are allowed on the board at any one time, you’ll have to combine one of those subs with another.

Reference: page 7, center column under “plastic chips”.

The official Q&A also back this up:

“The number of playing pieces is a limit on how many forces can be in play. No one, for example, can have more than three bomber forces, or more than two carrier groups. The only exception to this absolute limit is chips.”
