Here’s the Armies vs Navies idea I came up with!
G40 Balance Mod - Rules and Download
-
-
that thread deals with scrambles not marines/kamikazes. I’m running the most recent version of tripleA which handles the scenario described in that thread just fine.
In the case linked that is a scenario that is perfectly handled by axis and allies rules. Marine/Kamikazes arent in the rules as its a variant and I cant find an exact rule that says how this scenario should be handled.
-
@ksmckay That thread as well as the Github issue mentioned there deals with land units that are illegally unloaded - so the parallels to your sceanario are obvious. TripleA should not allow that.
However if the creators of the Balance Mod really intended Marines to be able to unload from a transporting cruiser that had been eliminated, that would need a clarification, indeed.
-
I’m trying to get a rules answer, and hoping this is the right thread for it since it’s a scenario unique to balance mod. Seems silly that a marine unloaded from a transport with zero combat involved would be that much different than a marine unloaded from a cruiser with zero combat. There had been talk in this thread about not being able to have kamikazes if there was no combat. But never an actual decision as far as I can tell.
I don’t care what the answer is I would just like to see where the rule was already answered or hear the consensus on the rule from the designer. It’s not a rare scenario so I’m sure it has come up before and just looking for the answer to the rules question.

I recommend you to contact Adam0514
I am not sure if I got your question right, so the Phi is attacked by an american marine on an allied cruiser( non-american)? I believe the landing is not allowed, but not sure of the rationale. This is similar to transports loaded with allied units (transport and loaded units are of different nationality) then a scramble will prevent the landing if the amphibious assult is not supported by surface warships or planes with the same nationality
If the cruiser is american, then of course both the cruiser and the marine are lost if the kamikaze strike is successful. In the case of a single transport (american with american units) the landing is allowed as kamikazes can not target transports.
-
If the cruiser dies to a kami then the Marine should die as well.

Oh, that is a bug.
Should work fine for sea combats but apparently not for kamikazes. There was a bug in an earlier release for sea combats which was thankfully fixed.

I need to ask about a BM3 rule…don’t know where the blog is.
If Russian declares on Japan and sends Russian forces into China, does it then negate the Chinese free pop-up guerrilla troops?

@barnee Already moved… to the rules-thread however :wink:

No. It does negate the USSR bonus for Japan doing a DOW on USSR though. And if it attacks Manchuria/Korea or a couple of others it negates Mongolia.

Jeez, I needed 5 minutes to find this thread.
@mods: It is unwise to move this thread which is most relevant to active league players into this place where you’d hide dead bodies. -

It had been moved here some months before the forum change with announcements and links in the league forum.
Anyway to address your concerns I have created a stickied topic on top of the league forum that points to the relevant topics:

@Panther Thanks!

I was playing this BM3 game as Russians:
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/33174/19l-g40-bm3-giallo-x-vs-owentoo-game-i/119
At the end of Russian turn 12, I had opened up all three lend-lease routes, and Japan had declared war on Russia previously, so I expected with my 24 production territories, to receive a total of 36 PUs, but Russia only received 30 PUs. The notes say I should receive an extra 2 PUs for each Lend-Lease route that is open. Is this a bug, or what am I not understanding?
-
@OwenToo In your game Russia declared war on Japan on round 6, that’s why Russia isn’t receiving the bonuses.
-
@OwenToo The +2 only applies if Japan is the one that declares war, unprovoked, on Russia. As Adam noted, in your game Russia was the one to declare war.
-
Is all the information for this mod included in the opening post?
Having no computer would like to try this on my table top. -
@Phelan-Kell Yeah everything is in the first post.
