Generally pacific builds consists of a 2 to 1 ratio of subs-destroyer. Following turn is 5-6 bombers. This forces Japan to start building fleet instead of troops for India/China crush.
I just had to give som additional thumbs up fo9r this comment :D Buying other combat ships than subs, dds (Or CW + ftrs) is rarely correct. the 2 to 1 ratio shos that sean knows how fodder works and how it is the most important thing in these battles.
The only reason to stop buying the subs is if japan for some reason dont respond with fleetbuilding and only buys planes instead. But then you should win anyways :D
which is why i said that it didn’t work against a too planeheavy japan. on theory, the DDs + other surface ships ofc needs to be enough to stop all the planes of japan + 2 rounds of plane only builds of japan.
What would prevent japan from attacking your fleet of subs-destroyers with air and a few destroyers. With 20+ planes they can whipe out your whole fleet with minimal losses as subs cant even hit the planes.
I normaly go for a carrier heavy fleet followed by subs destroyers for attacking power. Ideally i want my carriers to bait an early attack from japan that i can crush in the counter and get his carriers and BB out of the way so anzac and UKP can clean up the rest.
Global 2nd edition Q+A ( AAG40.2)
-
Unfortunately, UK collects the IPCs from Italy but can’t use them until London is liberated. They are in the bank til then.
-
Can I elect not to place units and receive a refund? I think this was legal in global at some point but I can’t find the rule in the 2nd edition rulebook.

I don’t recall this ever being legal in 1st edition or alpha (or any edition previous) and don’t believe it’s legal in 2nd.

Don’t remember this one…
Is it allowed to NCM a loaded transport into a sz with an enemy sub, and unload the units in a friendly territory ?

yes

that was fast !
thanks -
Ok, another one (i know the answer, but i want my oponent to be able to see it).
There is Japanese troops + planes in Philippines , and a big US + UK fleet in sz35
Now Anzac wants to make an amphibious assault in Phi with 1tr fully loaded, some planes, and a cruiser.
If Japan decides to scramble, do they only have to fight the attacking Anzac units, or do they have to fight the entire ally’s fleet in sz35 ?
-
Hi AxisPlayer: Only the player whose go it is: Anzac.
But I understand if you are waiting on a deputy’s confirmation. -
Allied units in a seazone only defend together, they attack only on their own turns. The Japanese are defending in this scenario (even whilst scrambling), and therefore only have to defend against the Anzac.
-
Hi. If allies (UK) attack , let’s say, Germany in SZ in which there is already another allies ship (example: US submarine) can he remove that unit as casualties ?
And can I use US destroyer to detect subs while attacking with UK planes?
Thnx.
We play that way but i think it ain’t by the book. -
Allies only defend in an area together, they never attack together.
So you can’t remove that US sub as a casualty, as it is not taking part in the battle.And your ally’s destroyers does not detect subs if you’re attacking.
-
Thank you, we will fix it then.
We understood something wrong. -
In the Pacific board, the USSR and Japan aren’t at war yet. Japan has taken India. Can Soviet tanks move into Persia in the Europe board and block Japanese movement, since the Soviets are at war on the Europe board?

Yes. But you do realize it doesn’t block japan from attacking persia. There’s no punishment for Japan or Russia when they declare war on each other, and you don’t need to make an attack to declare war. So it doesn’t “block” movement for more than the turn it takes Japan to smash through the Russian line in persia.
The only time the mongolians are affected is when it’s a territory adjacent to mongolia (or korea). So as long as they aren’t skirmishing in manchuria, korea, or the soviet far east, they can beat each other up as much as they want and declare war on the first turn if they want to.
There’s actually no reason that Russia would not declare war on Japan on R1, because it opens their territories up for US landings. If Japan’s going to attack, they’ll attack. The state of war between them is irrelevant prior to Japan’s attacks, so why be at peace? No reason at all.
-
Great answer as usual Kcdzim. Thank you.
-
Can a Soviet Mech Infantry in Caucasus activate both North West Persia and Persia in the same move?
Can a Tank? -
You can’t Blitz a neutral and you have to end your move there.
See Page 10, A&A Europe 1940 rule book.

china can’t attack french indo china with a fighter can he?
-
The China rules state that their fighter is under the same restrictions as their land units.
The fighter cannot move into territories that China is not allowed to move into.
Not even for an attack that’s intended for the fighter to land into Chinese territory afterward.
