@The-Captain

I think I may have been doing JPN Home Defense wrong. Do their Ftrs get D5 for 1st rd same as UK ? Or just the INF boost ?

Thanks

@barnee

During Home Defense of Japan, the Japanese player gets 2 Infantry units for free in Japan - before any combat begins.

All Japanese Infantry units defend at “3” during the first round of Combat only. From the second round of Combat all Infantry units defend at their normal Defense Factor.

Japanese Fighter units in Japan defend at their normal Defense Factor during Home Defense.

The Tank Destroyer rule is now available at the top of pg. 1 on this thread.

The rulebook includes the Waffen-SS Panzer Jäger unit as well.

The G40 Waffen-SS Assault Pioneer unit rule is now available at the top of pg. 1 on the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion thread.

I’ll have to tweak them a little bit. Probably get rid of the roundels and red up the soviets. Darken up G for the Waffen Unit.

Think just add a red circle with a black cross for Waffen Pioneer to existing Engineer.

Anyway, slowing down a bit play wise with Christmas happening. It’ll keep me busy.

Flying Tigers next ?

:)

@barnee Hey Barnee. Sorry I didn’t catch your question earlier. When I said the three US money islands, I was referring to Wake/Midway/Hawaii which with Expanded Pacific is worth 9 IPC’s plus a 5 IPC bonus in play.

@Cornelis-Post

Just saw this :) heh heh, no I meant The Captain had mentioned testing additional Chinese Flying Tiger units a while back :)

Merry Christmas to you as well :)

@The-Captain Can Tank Destroyers be part of a Desert Army ? I didn’t see anywhere that said they couldn’t. Just cant be part of a Tank Army.

If so, I assume they’d operate the same as a Commisar Corps ? Would you clarify please.

Thanks

Edit
Also @The-Captain
Can Waffen Pioneers join Waffen Armies ? I don’t see it stated that they can, so I’ll hold off before I code it.

[The Captain]

The rules concerning Tank Destroyer units and Waffen-SS Assault Pioneer units have been updated.

Please read the updated rules.

@The-Captain

Howdy,

can a Waffen-SS Army contain 2 Waffen-SS-Oberst, while one of them is the leader and the other just a regular unit?

Thanks

[barnee]

@Panzerstahl-Helm

Hi Panzer

Only 1 Oberst per Army.

[The Captain]

@Panzerstahl-Helm

Good question - I’ll have to study our notes for the rulebook.

I’ll be back - asap

@The-Captain

Thanks. Barnee just answered my question. Further down in the rule book it says, that only 1 SS-Oberst per SS-Army is alowed.
My bad.
