AAG40 FAQ

@gamerman01:

@Llordbone:

here is a situation that happened in our game: UK1 a transport unloaded 2 infantry in persia to activate the 2 pro allied infantry.  Q1 who gets the 2ipc? UK europe (since it is on the europe side of the board, or UK India since they activated it.) Q2 who now controls the transport and the 4 infantry now standing on persia? is it UK India who activated it, or, UK europe because it is on there side of the board. This led to much confusion. What happens if a group of UK from each side of the board were to meet in the middle of the board ?? Can either side take controlof these units :???

That’s only part of his question, Calvin.

Dude, the UK acts as one - they don’t move separately.  The only thing that’s separated is the money on hand and the incomes.  UK controls all UK units on the board, and they move as one!

Yeah, I missed that part.

does a german sub in z125 negate the russian NO?  is a sub considered a “warship”?

is a sub considered a “warship”?

a sub is a warship, just not a surface warship

Ships are all 6 naval units. Warships are all ships except transports. Surface warships are all warships except subs

Thank you guys so much for the clarification.  It really helps to move the parenthesis to before that sentence.

Which straits/canals do you need permission to go through if you’re neutral with respect to the owner?

All of them.

@Krieghund:

All of them.

If Italy controls Egypt and UK controls Jordan, can a Japan not at war with UK go through the Suez canal? If it wants to go through it, does it need only UK’s permission, or both UK’s and Italy’s permission?

Can italy go through a British controlled Suez canal if UK gives permission?

And when you ask permission, you have to say exactly what you want to move, right?

No one can go through it, as it’s not controlled by either side.

@calvinhobbesliker:

Can italy go through a British controlled Suez canal if UK gives permission?

No, because they’re at war with each other.

@calvinhobbesliker:

That’s up to the players involved.

If the UK controls Suez and Japan wants to go through it and is neutral to UK, can it go through if UK allows it?

If Italy contols the Suez canal, does Japan need Italy’s permission to go through?

Yes.

No.  They’re on the same side.

Can a tank or mech inf non-com move through a recently conquered territory to reinforce another territory?  Here is what happened, Italy controlled Egypt and Iraq, attacked and captured trans-jordan, so could Italy move a mech inf or tank in egypt (did not move during combat move phase) through trans jordan to reinforce Iraq?

Thanks!

There is a tiny piece of Turkey that borders Greece on the other side of the straight.  Does this make it possible for land units to cross from Greece into Turkey without transports if Turkey is hostile or neutral?

Yes.

I figured this out after my first Global game.  I noticed that if the tech worked the way AA50 did with the “tech tokens” keeping the purchased tech for further tries in later rounds, then the US would have a dominating edge because of the increased salary jump at DOW.  The IPC increase from AA50 to Global is a big factor to cut the “token” rule out of the Global game.

Maybe Larry or Kreighund can give us some insight??? :?:
