Oil and ship refuel

@franklin_cain Russia probably go hard at it. They kinda do for the spread of commiesm anyway. Not that those TTys provide it, there just in the way.

Don’t see anything wrong with it. Allies probably get it more than Axis. They and Russia are at a disadvantage oob anyway

It is an Independence Day Mothership !!!

I don’t trust Aliens to be on human side.

Your not Vann, but a clone for sure.
:-D

Tested and Approved.  Its on the Shapeways store for sale.  Will be adding it onto a tree so you can save on multiples.

Territories enriched with Oil:
-All Dutch Islands
-Columbia, Venezuela, Bolivia
-Central US
-Scotland
-Western Canada, Alaska
-Alexandria, Cairo, Tobruk, Trans-Jordon
-Union of South Africa

Great posts Black_Elk. I’m trying to imagine any problems a 3 move non-combat rule would create.

On my map with this rule the USA could reach the shore of Japan from San Francisco in one move and vice versa. A US navy could reach Normandy from New York. But they could not actually do anything but sit there, as it would be non-combat movement. Nobody likes to leave loaded transports floating around, so I’m thinking attacks would still come from two zones away and the three zone moves would pretty much be limited to shuffling navies from one ocean to the other. Heck, if that’s true, everything could move 4 in non-combat, 2 in normal combat, and 3 in combat from naval bases. What would it hurt? I suppose it would all have to be game tested.

How would you play 2 Subs attacking 1 Cruiser and 1 Liner?
Let’s suppose the results is: “1” and “2”.
Is there 2 casualties? According to the best result from attacker’s POV.
Only 1 casualty? Assuming the worst case scenario for attacker in which the “1” was on the Cruiser while the “2” was put on the Liner.

No. Sub must choose the liner ship or the warship not both.

It seems to me that giving a single shot with usual combat value  (Sub A2 D1, in this case)  for each attacking unit is much simpler but still provide Liner a real chance to escape and survive.
It is the only units which Subs cannot attack again and again until it is over for one side.

After one round of combat the liner ship can withdraw if surviving the sub attack…

AL.

Tanks don’t have to be adjacent to their attacking territory either. They can move 2 spaces to attack. For example, say you have a tank in Germany and you are attacking Baltic states. You can move through Poland with your tank and attack Baltic States.

You took my ideas.

ports protect from naval combat, but not air combat ships don’t get any movement bonus ships may only be build and repaired in port AA gun in Territory protects ships as well one change from our versions: if the Territory is captured the ships are considered “dislodged” and placed at sea ( they are not captured). IN that case if you had enemy ships in the sea zone a battle will be fought. SBR on the port can still take place as per OOB, in this case the only effect is you cant build new ships or place them in that port till repaired, but they still protect against air attack. optional rule: air raids… if the nation is being attacked for the first time roll one D6, 1-3 success/ +1 on all attacks that round, roll each round and reduce die by -1 ( 2nd round 1-2, third just 1)

On the european theatre of A&A the British start out with controll of the middle east and have the oil supply. The idea is that Germany has the option of buying oil from the allies for the amount of total value of the middle east this totals 8. The German player would give the allies 8ipcs to divide amongst themselves as they see fit. In return any moterized German units(Watercraft, Aircraft, and Armor) would be able to move one extra space for the next 3 rounds. At the end of the third round when Germanys buy/place units part of the turn comes up they are considered to have ran out of oil and have the option to refill for another 8ipcs. If at any point and time Germany holds the middle east oil supply, rules are as normal, allies can not purchase oil and no movment would be added to the allies vehicles.
