@VictoryFirst said in L25 G40 OOB Jacob16 (Axis) vs. VictoryFirst (Allies+50):

Rules question, do the Axis win if they control enough VCs at the end of a round or after a full round of play? E.g. if Japan captures Sydney this turn, do they win at the end of the French turn or at the end of J8?

I thought it was the latter but I was testing some stuff in local mode and it gave a message saying the Axis achieved victory at the end of the French turn.

@Panther Maybe you know the answer? Thanks.

In the given case it is at the end of J8.

See the rulebook:
“At the beginning of each Axis power’s turn, check to see if at least 8 victory cities have continuously been under Axis control since the end of that power’s last turn (they need not be the same 8 cities). If that’s true, then check to see if at least 1 of the victory cities that the Axis controls is an Axis capital (Berlin or Rome). If one of them is an Axis capital, or if the current power liberates one by the end of the turn, the Axis wins the game.”

Doing only combat move in the combat movement phase keeps your options open, and is the only choice according to the rules, but sure is easy to forget you were going to reinforce something in non combat that you just walked in on the combat move phase
Barely caught that one
