Great! First time for me playing a full game of Oztea 1939 (I’ll be Allies).
Global 2nd edition Q+A ( AAG40.2)
-
I’m pretty sure it means that you can place fighters on new carriers. That didn’t use to be allowed. This would include newly purchased fighters and also existing fighters landing on new carriers. Back in the original, new carriers were always without planes because they weren’t allowed. I believe LHTR was to change that and allow planes
-
That’s correct. However, it may also refer to the fact that carriers cost 16 IPCs in LHTR.
-
thanks for the answers. We’ll go ahead and use those rules.
-
Whether its Europe or global, if Germany makes an attack on Russia, sea or land units, Russia automatically enters the war, correct?
And, when at war, does an axis Sub prevent Russia from collecting the SZ 125 N.O? -
Answering for global only,
You have to declare war on a power to attack any of its things or take its territory.
When Russia is at war, any Axis sub in 125 disrupts the Russian NO, yes, even if Russia is not at war with the power who owns the sub. -
What happens to the IPC’s if you lose your capital but on your turn you take a capital? Example: UK takes Berlin but on Germany’s turn they take Moscow.

Germany will get Russia’s cash.
@rulebook:
Capturing and Liberating Capitals
If a power captures a territory containing an enemy
capital (Washington, London, Moscow, etc.), follow the
same rules as for capturing a territory. Add the captured
territory’s income value to your national production level.
In addition, you collect all unspent IPCs from the treasury
of the original controller of the captured capital. For
example, if Germany conquers Russia, and the Soviet
Union has unspent IPCs, those IPCs are immediately
transferred to Germany’s player. You collect these IPCs
even if your own capital is in enemy hands. -
- Can a lone transport load ground units if an enemy sub is present in the sz during the non combat phase?
I know they can’t during the combat phase without another naval unit present. Right? Would a sub count?
- A German tank enters an empty french owned Normandy during the combat phase. It cannot blitz because the facilities prevent this correct?
3)I know tanks can blitz through unoccupied hostile territory to another territory but that all takes place during the combat phase. A tank or mech can never move during the combat phase and the non combat phase correct? Thank you.

- Can a lone transport load ground units if an enemy sub is present in the sz during the non combat phase?
Yes. Could do it in the combat phase too.
I know they can’t during the combat phase without another naval unit present. Right? Would a sub count?
No, this is not for LOADING but for UNLOADING that a sub stops unescorted transports. The sub has to be in the sea zone that the amphibious assault would be launched from. A sub counts as escort, as does a carrier.
- A German tank enters an empty french owned Normandy during the combat phase. It cannot blitz because the facilities prevent this correct?
Correct, facilities and AAA guns prevent blitzing.
3)I know tanks can blitz through unoccupied hostile territory to another territory but that all takes place during the combat phase. A tank or mech can never move during the combat phase and the non combat phase correct? Thank you.
Correct. A tank may complete a blitzing move into a friendly territory on the 2nd move, all during the combat phase. Actually, that’s when it MUST move to the friendly territory, if it is to do so

In the A&A P40 FAQ from wizards.com one of the errata says:
" (…) Following any such unprovoked declaration of war by Japan, the United States will receive an immediate one-time bonus payment of 30
IPCs, representing the total mobilization and transfer of military assets within the continental United States."Does this apply to AAG40 aswell?
-
No, FADM. That is only on Pacific. The standard at war NOs count in Global.
That special 30 was introduced, as it was found Japan could sneak the US and capture its capital. Is for balance in Pacific only. -
Was not only because of a rush at San Francisco, but because J1 was the no-brainer DOW turn without it. And the game being imbalanced toward Japan in general. It was introduced to fix all of those factors, in my understanding.
-
How does the French DOW on Japan work? Can France declare war on Japan at anytime? Does that have a bearing on any of the other Pacific combatants or Japan’s prewar NO?
-
so the payment is done immediate after DOW from Japan. Then on the Collect Income phase USA gets it’s normal NO. Am i getting it right?
@wittmann:

No, he’s saying that in the G40 game, there’s no payment for the USA when Japan declares war. The USA just gets to start collecting its NO bonuses during USA’s collect income phase.
cond1024, if I recall correctly, France can declare war on Japan whenever it wants to, but it has no bearing on anything else.
-
sorry I meant it AAP 2nd. as per the prior question.

Yes. The immediate payment is in addition to USA NO
(Note to all - this is a P40 question in the G40 thread)

French DOW has no effect except that France is at war with Japan (and therefore Japan cannot ignore the French destroyer)
Beware NOT declaring war with France - players have depended on the French destroyer to block an assault on India in the early going while neglecting to declare war with France. You don’t want that to happen to you.
Japan can also declare war on France with no other effects. Note that it takes an ATTACK on FIC to end the 10 IPC NO, the declaration alone doesn’t do it. It is possible for Japan to sink the French destroyer and still collect this NO for trade with USA.

If southern Italy is captured (the Capital) can Germany then move into Northern Italy and collect the 4 ipc’s? That is until Italy’s capital is liberated.

If the allies take Northern Italy and Southern Italy and Germany liberates Northern Italy after that, it becomes German (like any other country: if a territory is retaken and the original capital is taken by the enemy the territory becomes of the party that took it).
