Rule Clarifications please

Hello again.
3. That is right.
11. The Italian player gets the money, but can’t spend it until he once again owns Rome at the beginning of his turn. (The Germans or Japanese could recapture for him.)
12. That is right. Japan ( even with Euro Axis help) needs to maintain 6 VPs until the beginning of its next turn. It can’t dip to 5 at any time inbetween. -

Actually, Germany or Italy could capture a Pacific VC and later Japan can lose one, and the Axis would still win, right?
-
As long as it never dips below 6, yes. Does not need be the 6 Japan originally held, as you pointed out, calvinhobbesliker
-
So let me get this right;
If a major IC with 2 damage on it is downgraded to a minor IC, there will be 6 damage on the minor IC???
I always thought that >=6 becomes 6, and <6 stays <6.
Worth memorizing that one. -
No. It is as you thought, ItIsILeClerc.
Below 6 remains as it is. 6-20= 6 only. -
- Say 1 Bomber, 1 Tac, 1 Fighter attack an AAA gun, the gun rolls 1D6 for each plane specifically, right?
As soon as you have more than 3 planes per gun then the AAA gun simply rolls for 1’s and the attacker chooses casualties, is this correct?
In other words, as long as the attacker has more planes than the AAA guns can roll for then their more expensive planes are basically safe because the randomness of getting your Bombers shot down is now neutralized.

No, see the rulebook:
@rulebook:
Once the number of air defense dice is determined,
the dice are rolled. For each “1” rolled, the attacker
must choose 1 air unit as a casualty.So in your example three dice are rolled against three air units, regardless of the type of air unit.
The attacker chooses even then, to which units he assigns the hits.The attacker’s option to “save” more expensive air units is given in any case (when he attacks with different air units).

Thank you Panther
- Ok, so let’s say there’s 4 US Transports in the English Channel. The UK player loads 4 AAA guns and 2 Infantry in NCM, and 2 French Infantry on their turn. Both the UK and French Infantry are allowed to amphibious assault on their respective turns, right? The AAA guns stay behind? The AAA guns may only unload with or without Infantry in NCM.
-
That’s correct. The UK infantry couldn’t amphib until next turn. The French could amphib on the turn they load. Remember you can’t unload the AA in ncm if their transport already dropped a dude off in combat move that turn. If you still have the French on board when UK attacks next turn those two AA could unload in ncm.
-
… The French could amphib on the turn they load.
No, sorry, this part is not correct.
@rulebook:
Transporting Multinational Forces: Transports
belonging to a friendly power can load and offload your
land units, as long as both powers are at war. This is a
three-step process:
1. You load your land units aboard the friendly
transport on your turn.
2. The transport’s controller moves it (or not) on
that player’s turn.
3. You offload your land units on your next turn.So the French Inf has to wait one turn aboard the US Transport before it can offload.
-
Oh? I thought if the tranny didn’t move they could attack the same turn. I see that is not the case. Thanks Panther.

I just want to specify here that if the Italians had an IC in say, Ukraine or Egypt, they could spend the money there. Or in Russia fo that matter. They don’t have to wait for their capital to be liberated, do they?
-
Hi Shin Ji.
You can’t buy anything if you do not control your Capital.
See page 21 Pacific, under Capturing and liberating Capitals. -
Huh. Thanks Wittman. Maybe TripleA confused me on that one. Can’t recall if it actually happened or if I was concerned that it might happen. Either way, I know now.
