@calvinhobbesliker:

All Chinese units can move to Bruma at any time, even if the UK is still neutral

Calvin, I remember needing to verify this just recently. And your reply didn’t jive with what I recalled. So I’m looking it up again. The rulebook states the following…

“Kwangtung and Burma are special cases. While they are not Chinese territories and cannot be controlled by China, Chinese forces can attack Axis units there and occupy them, but the IPC’s generated go the United Kingdom (unless India is under Axis control). These are the only non-Chinese territories that Chinese units can occupy.”

The phrase “can attack axis units there and occupy them” suggests they can only enter Burma to attempt to retake it (from the Axis) on behalf of the UK. I suppose it then becomes a matter of what the word occupy actually means. From a wartime perspective, I think of the word denoting an occupying force that previously invaded and has now established control. So I think of the Chinese as invading Axis controlled Burma to occupy it, on behalf of the UK.

If occupy simply means to exist in, I wish the sentence was worded differently to establish that it is not a cause and effect relationship.

Here was the question in the FAQ:
Two Quick Questions:

1.)  If UK / ANZAC are not yet at war with Japan, can China Enter Burma / Kwang during its non-combat movement?

2.)  At what point can the US capture a Dutch territory?  Only after Japan has occupied it?

Thanks in advance

Here was Krieg’s answer:

Yes.

The US can take ownership of Dutch territories only by capturing them from Japan.

@Razor:

After a J1 attack, and if Japan take planes as casualties, they will have 3 inf and 1 art in Yunnan, and that is hard to trade when China attack with 4 inf and a fighter. So basically the best strategy is to just forgett Yunnan and walk a giant stack up north to threaten the money territories at the coast after Japan have taken India. That is if you want to win.

5 inf, if you include the one in Kweichow

I think that you shouldn’t have to separate out your defending fighters from the SBR.  The entire escort rule is there to make it harder to SBR someone.
The only reason that I could see to NOT send your fighters up to intercept would be that you don’t want them getting shot down… but realistically they’d get shot down on the airfields anyways.
My point is that in order to SBR somebody you should really need to be in a perfect position to do so (i.e. have fighter cover) but having to select which fighters intercept the bombers and which defend the zone i think detracts from that alot.  Just because you can bring some ground forces with you to attack shouldnt mean that you can SBR at will.

ANZAC/ UK fighters maybe….

This guy made a folding game table but also used magnets for the fighters and carriers.

I wonder for how much money would he sell his game?

I mailed him once, but never got a reply.

Thanks, that explains a lot.

+1 :-) (if I was able too, sorry) :oops:

Im not a huge fan of it being 6 IPC rather than just 5

China shouldnt get special treatment……even though they are treated in a special way
