National Advantages

Bear in mind, the land units on the transport only act on their Turn.

@Wittmann Unfortunately It is too far from where I Live. We have a group on FaceBook called the London Fighters and Play every now and then. If it happens for you to find yourself in London join us for the fight. Next Global Game is set for the 24th of November 2019. Regards.

@MagnuZealot:

When does the US collect the extra 30 IPCs and do they collect them every round of play Including their National Objectives?

The “extra 30 IPC rule” applies only for the Pacific theatre game:

@FAQ:

Page 9, The Political Situation, The United States: This paragraph should read “The United States
begins the game neutral. It may not declare war on Japan unless Japan first declares war on it or makes
an unprovoked declaration of war against the United Kingdom or ANZAC. Following any such unprovoked
declaration of war by Japan, the United States will receive an immediate one-time bonus payment of 30
IPCs, representing the total mobilization and transfer of military assets within the continental United
States. However, if the United States is still not at war with Japan by the Collect Income phase of its third
turn, it may declare war on Japan at the beginning of that phase. This is an exception to the rules for
declaring war (see “Declaring War,” page 11), which may normally be done only at the beginning of the
Combat Move phase.” (Note that this change applies only to the Pacific rules, and not to the Global
rules.)

So the USA “only” get their bonus for their NOs (see Global Rules) during every Collect Income Phase.

HTH :-)

Panther thank you so much for that clarification!
I thought it wierd that it did not say in the Global rules.
Now my mind can rest easy.

@ghr2:

Maybe give the UK +5 for at least 1 allied surface warship in the med, basically the opposite of the Italian NO.  Or, give some NO’s for the UK control over some middle-east countries.

Yeah, I always thought that if Germany and Italy could get $2 for Iraq, Persia and NW Persia, then the UK should be able to as well.

cruisers suck.
they are too expensive. i think at 11ipc they would still be purchased infrequently. even at 10ipc they would probably be bought at a 1:1:1 ratio with destroyers and subs.

You are right.

Thanks!!

Hey, thats in my rulebook too and i skipped did not notice somehow lol.

Thank you.
