Global 2nd edition Q+A ( AAG40.2)

The rules say cleanup.

I asked this question in the old faq. You just clean it up, the pieces go back in the box. Most players play casually and would just land them in the nearest spot. League is only semi casual. Depends on who you get.

I had to lose a few fighters in a league game before. It has not been asked on this faq so I am asking it again for clarification.

Honestly I would say that his turn should not have ended, so let him land the planes where he wants. If it ends up making a huge difference to Italy, then re-do Italy’s turn.
I can’t imagine playing with someone who made me lose the planes in that situation. I would quit the game right then. i don’t care if it’s a league game, someone who does that is not someone I would ever want to play with.

In our games, when this happens, we let the player land them wherever they want, even if it’s a whole round later. It’s really not a big deal.
Even with convoy raiding, if we forget it until the next round, just roll it then. It shouldn’t make a difference if they lose the money at the end of their last turn or the beginning of their next turn.

I agree with Pancake.  You know, you guys could also read your combat log occasionally.  I spotted this immediately in the UK2 log:

Non Combat Move - British
            2 fighters and 1 tactical_bomber could not land in Burma and were removed

My opponent is extremely strict.  It is not a casual league game. Need ruling.

Ask Jenn

You two shouldn’t even be playing each other.

You just saw two players plus myself say that it is ridiculous to demand these planes are lost.  I get that both of you are trying to catch each other on technicalities to prove a point etc.  You guys need to work it out or get Jennifer.  I’m not going to be the puny little referee in this out of control Pro Wrestling match  :lol:

A couple of fighters crashing is so dramatic. Jeez.

When I forget, my planes crash. When someone else forgets, they are forgiven. I just want an official ruling on what to do for fighters that have not landed.

If I am going to be playing a strict by the rules game, it is what it is. Why be so dramatic?

Technically one can only blame thyself for forgetting important units.

I agree, it’s an unusual issue to have.  TripleA warns you when there are planes that haven’t landed.  If you’re not going to let it go, I think you should ask Jennifer.  Was she the one who ruled against you with this issue last time?

Jen or Garg. One or the other.

It makes sense because it keeps people from intentionally not landing fighters to see what opponents do then going… “oh i forgot to land these… I will put them here.”

@Cow:

i’m not extremely strict, that’s ridiculous.  i said i want you to stop making all these noncom edits - something you have been strict on in the past.

@Cow:

Jen or Garg. One or the other.

and that’s fine, but you know i was not trying to take advantage in this case i just accidentally clicked through.

that would be Jenn then since Garg has nothing to do with the league, let alone being a moderator.  sure am happy to hear his opinion on the matter though.

Dutch New Guinea is friendly neutral and hasn’t been occupied by either Aussie or Japan.  If USA moves into the territory in ncm, do they take ownership?  Just trying to determine if USA can help Aussie get its NO here.

Absolutely Zhukov, as long as both the US and Anzac are at war with Japan.

i was thinking usa couldn’t claim dutch territories?  they can land there but not change ownership was my understanding - at least that’s how tripleA treats suriname when usa walks in from brazil - this may be a tripleA error of course there are MANY.

Right, TripleA is not letting me do it.  If it’s a bug, it should go high up on the bug list.

Seems like it ought to allow USA to claim it unless there is special language in the rulebook indicating that only the Dutch can claim it.

Zhukov, apologies, I believe I am wrong. Thanks for pointing out that Dutch territories are not Friendly Neutrals, Boldfresh.
America can only control them after they have been captured by Japan.

So, no the US cannot capture them for Anzac’s NO.
Again, I am sorry.

The Dutch have an arrangement with UK/ANZ only

ONLY UK/ANZ can take control of Dutch territories in non-combat movement.  The rest of the Allies can only control originally Dutch territories if an Axis power took control at some point first.

Can you fly over strict neutrals during the CM phase.  Ex: bombers from WG attack the cruiser in sz91.  If this has already been answered I would appreciate a link.  Thank you

You can’t fly over any neutrals that have never been attacked before.
Once a neutral is attacked by either side (or claimed, of course, in which case it is no longer neutral) then any powers at war may fly over, and friendly aircraft can land in the neutral.

So this guy is trying to unload 2 units on Korea.

I got a sub on sz 6 and I want to defend against his 1 sub 1 transport unloading 2 guys.

Can I do it?  I told him I can. He do not want to believe me.
