SZ6: scramble /submerge? -
I assume, if no/no or US win in sz6, US takes Korea. Let me know if that is wrong.

I agree and so it happens

Thank you. Still need your scramble /submerge decision.

submerge and no scramble, so no fight

SZ110: UK units in 2 US transports

Hi guys, I’ve really enjoyed checking out your game from G1 tonight - finally looking at a couple playoff games for the first time.
I do have one comment as I’ve just finished Russia 4 -
It looks like the engine awarded +3 for the Russian NO of holding an Axis territory in Europe, but Scandinavia (Finland, here) doesn’t count.As per the game notes it has to be in “mainland” Europe. Mainly pointing it out for your future reference, but probably a correction should be made to Russia 5 to reduce the purchase by 3. Oh, and I see 6 was awarded at the end of Russia 5 (Finland and Norway) so 6 IPC’s should be deducted from Russia’s current bank. I guess you’ll have to do that every turn going forward if Russia controls Finland or Norway. Programming is apparently wrong.
-
You can resolve it in a different way if you both agree, since moves have passed and decisions have been made based on the wrong Russia money.
Just offering up what seems to be the most obvious and logical choice.
-
I think 2 neutral infantry need to be edited back to Chile
-
From J5 -
SBR is first, then all amphibious assaults are to be rolled before any other battles. Again, future reference. Sometimes it matters. Sometimes it matters a lot. Somebody had to point it out to me years ago (JDOW) -
(Philippines, Trans-Jordan, Java) should have been first.
I don’t think there are many players who realize this is a rule, and many don’t understand the importance. But I’m sure you will - - and pass it on :fist: -
Apologies for the intrusion here, but I just saw @gamerman01 's post. Are you sure about Finland (and I presume Norway)? I’ve always assumed they counted in BM and I think technically they are considered part of the European mainland in the real world.
And yes, this game looks interesting. I’ve only played one game with PB and 2 recent games with ME1945, but my sense is that you two are the most creative players in league in that you try non standard strategies with axis. Looks to me though that this time PB is paying for it. That is one powerful Red Army.

Farmboy, I thank you for asking that right away.
I sorted through the pages of the balanced mod rules thread, and on June 13, 2016 I asked the question about Scandinavia because the balanced mod makers had inserted “mainland Europe” into the game notes. https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/27451/g40-balance-mod-rules-and-download/502?page=21
Regularkid posted a link to back up their definition of including Scandinavia, which is broken now.
I look it up on wikipedia now, and it clearly does include Scandinavia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continental_Europe
(Link says continental Europe, but that is the same as “mainland” Europe it says in the same article)They didn’t change the description in the game notes, so 6 1/2 years later I’m confused again. I thought the reason for adding that parenthetical was to distinguish it from the original 2nd edition rules, but in fact they are the same, as you pointed out. So the programming is correct - if Finland and Norway weren’t supposed to be included, now I realize they surely would have edited the programming long ago.
