L25 G40 OOB Jacob16 (Axis) vs. VictoryFirst (Allies+50)

[VictoryFirst]

Thanks, I think you are right and I am wrong because TripleA also does it this way. In that case things will change a bit. I need to take a 70% to capture India this turn as the Russians. I thought I had an extra turn. That would allow me to get much better odds.

In case I don’t succeed, the game will likely be yours.

@VictoryFirst it has been an amazing game. I think the axis are on the doorstep of a victory however. Japan has collected 90 IPC this turn which is quite funny

[Panther]

@VictoryFirst said in L25 G40 OOB Jacob16 (Axis) vs. VictoryFirst (Allies+50):

Rules question, do the Axis win if they control enough VCs at the end of a round or after a full round of play? E.g. if Japan captures Sydney this turn, do they win at the end of the French turn or at the end of J8?

I thought it was the latter but I was testing some stuff in local mode and it gave a message saying the Axis achieved victory at the end of the French turn.

@Panther Maybe you know the answer? Thanks.

In the given case it is at the end of J8.

See the rulebook:
“At the beginning of each Axis power’s turn, check to see if at least 8 victory cities have continuously been under Axis control since the end of that power’s last turn (they need not be the same 8 cities). If that’s true, then check to see if at least 1 of the victory cities that the Axis controls is an Axis capital (Berlin or Rome). If one of them is an Axis capital, or if the current power liberates one by the end of the turn, the Axis wins the game.”

Scramble? OOL? Do you want to lose russian infantry or china infantry first in Yunnan?

[VictoryFirst]

Full scramble, lose all Chinese units first including the artillery and then the Russian infantry

[VictoryFirst]

OOL in SZ 54 is:

damage carrier, DDs, kill carrier, cruisers, fighters, battleship.

Kill ANZAC units before US units of the same type.
