One sentence is wrong

@LewisClark The UK is split into two economies, not two powers. The UK player, if I understand your predicament correctly, can still move ALL their pieces on both sides of the board. They simply cannot purchase/collect income on the Europe side. There is no Europe/Pacific control of the pieces as all UK pieces are moved at the same time since they share a turn.

@Leatherneckinlv:

Tobruk should have a land value of 2

That would change the dynamic a lot, because you could build an IC there. I don’t think that would be a change in the right direction either.

Right, that’s what I meant.

If he doesn’t do sealion before a war with Russia starts, use your air force to prevent it from ever happening. Also build a huge assault force to take out Italy (by far the weakest axis,) and plunder from them. This force can soon be used in liberating France. Make sure you do it before Germany can take out Moscow, so it is indeed like a race based on time. Also make sure that Japan doesn’t get too excited, but remember. If the Japanese player seems to not be interested in Russia and if you can build a navy to hold him back whatever Japan does is useless. Japan takes over China, ANZAC, and Pacific British income. Who cares? The Allies need to capture all the capitals, not all the cities. Like I said take out Rome then slowing lead to the fall of Berlin, then do some damage control in the Pacific and build a force to take out Japan. Also have the other allies to build planes to fly around and hit Japanese stuff, either their troops or boats.

Thank you Krieg. Iam getting some friends together to play our first global game. I have read the rules and alpha updates. The bombing was the last clarification I needed before we play . Thank again for the rules clarification.

I agree with both of u.

What I was suggesting is that German can have a good control on the fate of the uk navy, even if they leave z111 untouched.
I am not sure how to relate that idea with a grand German strategy yet. And, well, I am looking to see, if any friend here may have a creative plan to go.

AA, to me, is fun in mind.

@Krieghund:

Yes, they can.

Is it possibile to have kamikaze aircrafts? Let me explain: can i use aircrafts to conduct attacks at sea that they have no possibility of return?

No. You must be able to land, even if that landing site is pending a naval battle or non combat carrier move or sea zone build.

Japan has a special Kamikaze attack that is activated by the allies under specific conditions, but it does not involve normal air units on the board. These are 6 one time attacks on enemy ships excluding subs and transports.

See: page 21 AAEurope 1940 bottom paragraph under “Air Units” third bullet point, last sentence: “You can’t deliberately move an air unit out of range of a potential safe landing space.”

See also: page 13 AAEurope 1940 first paragraph under “Air Units” first sentence: “An air unit that moves in the Combat Move phase must generally reserve part of its move value for the Noncombat Move phase, at which point it must return to a safe landing spot using its remaining movement.”

Note: This is not an official answer, just being helpful.

Thank you. :-)

I agree. This “optional tech” rule pretty much means the same playing with it as without. It’s a bad buy. And if you disagree, then fine. But you probable don’t know how to play. Or maybe your just lucky. But for those who want a new system (even better than AA50) I will be coming up with a house rule. I’m developing it right now. Will post it here when finalized.
