Forgot to edit the art to a mech until after I posted
This one’s right

[Jeff28]

Isn’t it kinda unfair to change a purchase? Is that standard A&A.org practice?

[gamerman01]

I changed it before my combat move was over.

I didn’t realize you could scramble from Kwangsi and I didn’t ask to take it back

If you want me to stick with my artillery, it’s really insignificant - go right ahead.  And place it in London instead of Iraq.

[gamerman01]

You can see from the time stamps that I wanted to change my purchase before I rolled any dice.

If you were playing face to face, would you not let a guy change his purchase when he’s doing his combat moves?

Yes, it’s common to allow a change in purchase during combat moves, and I would always allow that and have no problem with it.

If you don’t want me to do it in the future, say the word.  Again, this change was extremely minor.

[Jeff28]

Why not just reload the file if you haven’t done combat and start over so the edit is avoided?

[Jeff28]

Because you already rolled tech dice I guess?

[Jeff28]

I get it now, it’s fine.

[gamerman01]

@Jeff28:

Because you already rolled tech dice I guess?

Yeah, then you’d have to edit the money.
I guess I don’t try too hard to avoid edit mode.  It’s inconvenient to reload.

Round :8

Combat Move - French

[Jeff28]

Going to have to look up the paratroopers for Germ turn. Are they an inf carried by an air unit out of a airbase for attack?

So any undefended territory w/in 3 of Moscow or Novo later you can take? Can you send more than one to a territory? How many maximum for a territory and turn?

Thx.

[gamerman01]

No problem, Jeff.

I can send 1 or 2 infantry directly from an airbase (no aircraft required) at ONE ENEMY territory that I am ALSO attacking with at least ONE other ground unit.  And the enemy territory has to be within 3 spaces of the airbase.

You can do this from each airbase, but I only control one, currently.

So I can only launch 2 infantry max per turn up to 3 spaces in a combat move (you can’t non-com them)

Does that answer all your questions?
Do you have access to an E40 rulebook?  If not, I can type the rule up for you.

[gamerman01]

Not sure why you said “undefended”

I can add 2 infantry to a battle against a big stack, as long as it’s within 3 spaces of my airbase.
