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

Since the UK and France are allied, India can move into French Indo-China, I assume. Since Japan’s 10 IPC alpha bonus requires them to not invade indo-china, what happens if the UK puts men in indochina and Japan attacks them? Do they forfeit their bonus even if the UK started war with Japan first?
Seems they would. The rule is they lose the bonus if they attack FIC. Period. They’re still taking French land - that’s a pre-emptive invasion of French territory, is it not?

Just wanted to make sure.
Also, I’m pretty sure it’s still a no because it involves multinational attacking, but it’s good to ask:
A german navy sits outside England. UK places a sea unit in that sea zone after their turn. It doesn’t participate if the US attacks that German navy on the same turn, does it?

You’re right. There is NEVER multinational attacking. The UK units would not participate.

Those of you who have played Global would you use the Out Of Box rules or the Alpha.+1 rules.
Are the Alpha rules considered the Errata section for Europe 1940 edition?

Alpha +1 is the closest we have to what will be the final rules for 1940. OOB is totally obsolete, to be perfectly frank. Turns out OOB was the Alpha version and we were all enlisted since August to playtest.
-
I actually printed rulebook off the internet for europe 1940 can anyone tell me if those are the Out Of Box rules or a different verison.
How much radically different is Alpha.+1?
-
E40 rulebook is OOB.
Alpha +1 is radically different; multiple rules and NOs are changed

Maybe I missed it… Are the dutch territories on the Pacific board treated just like pro-allies neutral country. Who ever lands on them places a marker and gets those IPC’s

Not quite. Only UK/ANZAC can do that. other allies must retake them from the axis to take control.
-
So are there any free units to get when taking the Dutch territories like you do when you take over a pro-allies neutral territories with the infantry symbol?

No. There are no infantry symbols, so no inf pop up(just like Ireland)

Can I move mechs and tanks through freshly captured territories (captured by infantry and arts, not the mechs and tanks) into a second friendly territory? These 2 spaces moved that didn’t fight at all that round.

I don’t think you need to post a question twice.

You are right on that account. I thought after posting a new thread, that I would get an answer faster from the thread devoted to these sort of questions. Sorry if this irritates someone.

That’s fine. I wasn’t annoyed; it just saves space if you ask once.

OK, sorry for guessing at your intent. That very question was answered on this thread recently, though, too.

It’s okay. I’m sure it was answered, but I doubt anyone wants to look at 50 pages to see if that question has already been asked.

Clarification time: For some reason I had it in my head that France does not surrender its IPCs when captured by Germany. My buddy and I started an Alpha+.1 game on Saturday and while rereading the rules I couldn’t find anything special about France anywhere. Did I make that up somehow?
