Regarding SZ 110, I got hosed one time on a UK scramble. Usually as Germany, I send 3 fighters, 3 Stukas, 1 bombers and sometimes 1 sub to SZ 110. Our UK player had gotten in the habit of not scrambling in order to save the RAF for future action.
Well, this one game I made the mistake of just assuming UK would not scramble. I sent 2 fighters, 2 Stukas and 1 bomber to SZ 110. The other fighter and Stuka I sent to kill the French fleet in SZ 93. Well, UK taught me a lesson. They scrambled and wiped out my planes. I didn’t even kill all the ships in the channel.
Never made that mistake again.
AAG40 FAQ
-
China can’t research technology, which makes sense considering that it can’t build artillery without outside help.
-
Yeah, saw that one coming, and that argument is as good as any. There are many to choose from.

Kreighund, some more questions:
1. Can you fire as many rocket attacks as you have AAguns (in different territories) to different ICs???
2. For Heavy Bombers you need to roll each bomber separately and choose. Otherwise if you roll multiple bombers at the same time, one could choose all the highest numbers at once. This skews the probability greatly in favor of the attacker.
3. Only subs through Gib Strait??? Not trannies??? Danish strait allows NO subs nor trannies- is that correct??? And nothing goes throught the Turkey Strait right??? Please clarify again.
4. Players need to be careful reading the Political rules for global- its a maze at first. Interesting that US can declare war at the END of round 3, USSR can only declare war at the BEGINNING of round 4. Why is the reasoning behind this??? Why not at the same time???
5. Japan declares war on UK/ANZAC doesn’t pull the US into war. At this point, the US has the option now to “choose” to go to war with Japan. Am I reading this right. Please clarify this political rule as it sounds a little different from Pac40.
Thanks in advance again. :-)

1. Yes.
2. Yes, each bomber must be rolled separately.
3. Nothing can pass through a narrow strait held by the enemy, with the exception that subs may pass through Gibraltar.
4. Larry wanted the US to get an income boost a turn before going to war if unprovoked.
5. Yes, and it’s the same in AAP40.

By the way, the E40 rulebook is much better than the P40 one. I can definitely see improvements from P40. Hopefully by a 2nd print of both these games, they can perfect everything. In both games, the Errata and such have really been minor. Nice products! :-)

Is North italy supposed to touch Paris?
-
Yes.
-
Do zones 118 or 108 border Eire?
Does Z106 border Newfoundland?
Does Scotland touch Eire?
Why can’t Germany use the Kiel Canal to move in/out of the Baltic when Denmark is captured? -
Some additional questions:
-
Is it possible in the non-combat fase to convert a friendly neutral territory with only an AA-gun? I think so because it’s a land unit.
-
Is it possible to cross the panama-canal with land units? I think so because the canal lies within the territory just like the canal in Turkey. The rules don’t mention it although.
-
Is it possible to cross the Danmark straight with a sub when Danmark is occupied with enemy units? I don’t think so because the rules only mention the gibraltar exception for sub crossing.

Welcome to the boards!

Pretty sure that’s not what they meant (has to be infantry, artillery, mech, or tank), but Krieg will confirm.
-
It’s in the rules. It’s like Turkey - Panama is just one whole territory.
-
Gibraltar is the only exception, yes, so no subs through Denmark strait.

Krieghund,
In Global, do you still remove a Japanese built industrial complex when liberating a Chinese territory or just knock it down to 3 if it is a 10?
UK NO’s: Doe these only go to London? If it is occupied can the no u-boat one be collected by India?
Thanks

No.

No.

Yes.
Why can’t Germany use the Kiel Canal to move in/out of the Baltic when Denmark is captured?
Why add more complication?

It is eliminated.

They only to London.

Just in time for my turn! Thanks!

Yes.

On retrospect,i think ireland should be pro allied, in reality we were strict nutral,but we passed a lot of info to the allies,and as a result dalky(my town) was bombed by the germans in 1941,i think that scotland and ulster being attached will help the germans in sealion,cos britain will have to split their force to defend it,as for armys,i think ireland had a small professional army,with commanders that had combat experience from the war of independence and the civil war, some 20 years before.Any way i think all nutrals should have at least 1 infantry,because all nations had some king of deffence in ww2,and they will in my house rules,LOL

Alright, back to rules questions.
Krieg, I noticed this afternoon on page 22 under Phase 5: Mobilize New Units:
“The number of units that can be produced by each IC each turn is limited to 10 for major ICs and 3 for minor ones. (If you are upgrading a minor IC to a major one, you may mobilize up to 3 other units from that IC this turn)”
Whaaaa??? Does this mean you can place 6 units there that turn? If so, why don’t the rules just say so?
Thanks.

Ireland is pro-allied

i know ireland is pro allied

Krieghund, can you confirm or repudiate please?
It means you can upgrade your IC and still build three units there. I read it somewhere from Krieghund when Pacific came out.
Edit: quoted the wrong post, this answers your question before this one…. ;-)
