#5: barnee (Axis) vs. VictoryFirst (Allies) | G40 House Rules Expansion by The Captain

[VictoryFirst]

Wow our game only lasted 17 days?! That’s our fastest one yet! Lol our second game also went on to turn 9 and that one was 96 days 😂

[VictoryFirst]

I believe I made a mistake here actually. Paratroopers can’t attack capitals by air, so the two paras shouldn’t be able to take part in the Moscow attack…

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

you are correct. It’s water under the bridge now though :) You still had a 70% chance to win without them.

Maybe I try and counterattack but probably not. I didn’t plan for the Eco Victory in the Pacific. At most you’d have a couple guys less.

You only scored 2 hits @ 2 anyway the whole battle :)

Besides, until a couple games ago, I’ve been playing the Islands wrong lol

Just something for us to keep an eye on. I wonder if there’s a way for a prompt to come up when a Enemy Para is in your capital after end of NCM ?

You’d need conditions for enemy units in your own Capital to offset after it was conquered.

<option name=“when” value=“after:germansNonCombatMove”/>

Idk, worth looking into :)

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

you know, I wonder if they can only not attack “Enemy” Capitals by air ?

I’ll check rules. Might need to ask Captain for clarification.

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

well according to the rules they can’t.

But might want to ask the Captain anyway

[VictoryFirst]

Well what we could do is reroll that battle without the two paras. 70% is not a certainty, if I lose that you win the game. And you can always try to attack it again.

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

nah that’s ok. I rolled pretty good in that battle anyway.

[VictoryFirst]

That condition might be a good idea although I think it should be after combat movement, not after non-combat movement.

And what about the trigger? Heh heh we could be sneaky by just removing the para from battle 😁

A notification could work but if there is just one battle it will not work I think. It will start the battle instantly.

[VictoryFirst]

Idk perhaps a notifcation and removal of the Paras? I think that would be a good idea

not after non-combat movement.

lol yea that’d work better hee hee

[VictoryFirst]

Lol I think you are right it doesn’t matter. Just tested it without the paras and I still took it.

[barnee]

yea i think so too. Hmm … idk I guess if one could remove them, but you might want to use them for something different that turn then.

I think just leave them and do a redo when the prompt comes up. Maybe link to auto save for CM ? If only one battle

[VictoryFirst]

Lol you’re right, I forgot about that 😂 Yeah I think a notification telling the player to redo combat phase is indeed best.

[VictoryFirst]

@barnee

Also, it might be an idea to make the German Takeover of italy also work after Germany’s first place, so that the Takeover can still happen even if you forgot it on Italy’s turn. Would be much better than having to do that all manually lol.

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

yea i tried counterattack with 2 Paras and 2 less Tanks. Odds went from 10.45 % to 13.45% G. So yea, you win lol

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

Problem is the italy guys will only change on Italys turn

[VictoryFirst]

Oh, huh. I wonder why. I will look into it. I am tired af now so I’ll rack off for the night 😴

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

it’s becaused they
are attached to “Italians” and the trigger checks for Germany’s turn.

Maybe you can find a work around :)

I’m gonna try and do a couple small fixes tonight and update.

Escorts can’t attack with a Sub present. They think they’re transports. So i made them combatTransports too.

Make russian Fctrys unable to move unless at war

[VictoryFirst]

Lol it has been almost 24 hours. Today was a rest day, I didn’t really do anything. Tomorrow I will take a look at Italy. Also, the Captain suggested changing the map logo to “The Captain’s Global 1940 Expansion” instead of “World War II Expansion” 😀

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

yea good to take a break now and again. Even if only a little one. Especially as many games as you play :) I have a hard time keeping stuff straight just with the two lol

Yea if you can fit a new logo in, go for it. Elk just put that in as a generic type thingy, so it would have something :)
