@insanehoshi I would like the link

The rules (3.3) say that you lose VPs per land zone in home territory that has a point value.

KMT/CCPs home territory consists of KMT, CCP, Warlords, Manchuria, Hong Kong, and Formosa.

So basically the Japanese really have to screw the pooch for KMT/CCP to get all their VPs.

Unless I’m missing something?

@noneshallpass thanks for the response.

As Japan do you prefer to attack China or the Dutch East Indies first?

Can a SB do it’s normal attack and drop airborne at the same time?

In section 1.2 the rules say, “Nations at position 3 are no longer able to be influenced and guaranteed support if attacked”

My question is, what does “guaranteed support” mean? Does it mean that the nation who is on position 3 but is not at war with a Major Power (making the minor power controlled but not aligned) is then forced to declare war on the attacker of the controlled minor power?

@Chris_Henry definitely a monumental task.

@insaneHoshi Yeah it would have to be more a scenario based rather than an exact end result of the previous game. So if the central powers won ww1 even though they completely dominated France and Great Britain in game, the 36 setup would be set up differently than how the previous game ended. There would need to be changes in diplomacy, starting incomes, etc. Also would need overlays like the one that comes with the Croatia expansion for the ottoman and A-H empires.

So let me first say that yes I am aware that GW14 and GW85 (I think it was 85) aren’t out yet…but has anyone been thinking about or does the developers have plans for an expansion or something that could connect all the global war games? Or how that would work?

@Chris_Henry I don’t think they would get the d12s since they got the plus 3 and plus 1. I don’t know though.

If Germany loses the battle, do they get to attempt to annex Slovakia again or do they have to declare war on Slovakia and attack it like it is another neutral?

@hammertimepower yeah they’ve done a great job. I don’t want them to think am not grateful for the work they do, and I hope I didn’t come off like I was. Like a said I thought I was being helpful.

@GeneralHandGrenade Hey, I saw your Russia video. Sorry, I didn’t mean to cause problems for you guys. I thought I was being helpful. It just seemed like something that could be taken advantage of from 2 player point of view, and in some situations in 3 players or more games.

@GeneralHandGrenade good to hear.

@GeneralHandGrenade so if Russia declares war on the US, the US doesn’t go to full income?

@GeneralHandGrenade my concern is that it could be used to bring in the US early without actually fighting going between the Allies and Commies. Let the axis and allies fight it out until Russia is ready to take all of it’s Victory points.

@hammertimepower Russia could bring the US in early with these rules without actually having to attack them. Having the US putting pressure on Germany that early would be great for the Russian player. It seems like it would be to easy to cheese over the axis.

I’m I the only one who thinks that Russia being able to declare war on the Allies in July of 1939 is a bad idea?

I’ve been playing with different ideas about how best to utilize Italy here lately, and I’m curious about what strategies you guys have found to be effective.

@DocSpidey Yeah as soon as this pandemic is over we could set up a game.
