RE: Basic Movement (Blitzing & Retreating) Questionsposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
You can blitz Pro Neutrals like any other territory. They are enemy controlled, and if they have no units in them, consider them yours.
Only if they’ve previously have activated the standing army (and it had an army) in it. And then it is a non-combat move and you must stop when entering.
I actualluy new the answers to all of these I was trying to answer some questions and prove a point to my group. I’m really suprized how many people really don’t know the blitzing rules. You can blitz an enemy’s neutral if it has no units. The above answer doesn’t make since. “If it has previously have been activated…” would mean it’s not a nuetral any more. Also confusing the issue is many answers talked about non-combat moves and friendly neutrals, when none of that was in the question. Kieghund if you would please provide an official answer. Thanx, and thanx to all who provided input.

Basic Movement (Blitzing & Retreating) Questionsposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
I know these are basic movement questions but I can’t find them on the site and just want to settle the questions in our play group. Looking for official answers. Thanx……
1. Can a tank, on it’s non-combat move, take its two moves to go through a territory that was just captured from the enemy during the combat move, to get to a friedly territory on the other side of the newly captured territory?
2. Just like the first question; at sea, can a ship takes its non-combat moves to go through a sea zone that was just cleared of enemy ships during the combat move, to get to an clear zone on the other side?
3. Can a tank blitz through an enemy’s neutral territory if the territory has no unts in it?
4. If ground units are attacking form severial territories, and they choose to retreat, do they all have to retreat to “one” territory from one of which they came, even if causes an advanced movement in your ground units that you used for your benifit, or do they have to each retreat to the territories that they started from?

RE: Italy Alpha 2posted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
I get a confused when I see people state that Italy is too weak. Whenever I play a game, percentage wise from their start position Italy does better than Germany and places close if not better than Japan. In round UK1 the UK can inflect some damage on the Italian Med fleet but after that the Italian’s can take out what’s left of the UK fleet. I don’t ever see Italy having a problem of taking over all of North Africa including Egypt, clearing the Med of all enemy war ships, and controlling 3 of the 4 counties named for that objective by round three. Italy’s income has gone from 10 IPC’s to over 30 in three moves and no one yet to slow them down till the US comes across the Atlantic. I either play Italy very good or I suck as the allies trying to stop them.

RE: NO Chart Alpha +2 (redone) plus other chartsposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
Hey Field Marshal, no problem in posting on other site, I put them out here to share…… Sorry so long in getting back to ya, I hadn’t been on here for a while.
I have another idea that I’m might post soon if there’s am intrest… It’s two documents that I use to track the game for fun and if there is a mistake you can refer back. The’re simple, I didn’t want it to be time comsuming. One is a grahpic global map and I just fill in the territories as they change powers. It interesting after a game to flip through the images and watch how this changed hands and played out. The other is an exec spredsheet that tracks the powers IPC count, keeping a real time comparison of the balance of power with percentages and graphs created when the IPC numers are put in.

Battle Boards
Again, as many of my chart are drawn they may not be for advanced players. They may find them to busy, however I designed these to be used by less experienced players; they have all the combat rules on the boards to include special rules like art support of inf/mech and Weapons Development. So it’s not only to place units for a more complex battle but also to remind a player of the rules.

NO Chart Alpha +2 (redone) plus other chartsposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
I made a new thread for this due to too many errors on the other charts. The NO chart should be correct now (I hope); increased the font on IPC value and added graphics to all NO marks. I also made a white background version. Some of the carts are still to large; will have links to high resolution versions.

Ok, my bad, Germany and UK Europe are ok because thay start at war…

RE: NO Chart for Alpha+.2posted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
Actually I’ve found I had the starting IPCs wrong in four places; the two you mentioned UK Pacific and ANZAC. I also found I had it wrong in the UK Europe side “for all territories” and Germany “for Scandinavia”. Wow! If you or anyoe sees anything else please let me know.

Yes, BadSpeller I’ll post it twice once with a light grey background. Hey BadSpeller did you choose your name because of your spelling ability. It is certainly a name I could have very well went by myself……I’m a terible speller.

RE: NO Chart for Alpha+.2posted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
Thanks Slacker for that information. I’ve always played them (ANZACs NO) from the start of the game, I guess I miss that they had to be at war. I’ll change it in the image.
I’ve now learned how to place the images on an online down load site “Dropbox”. I’m currently working on the NO chart. Making the latest corrections people have pointed out to me, (now this one) and I got in to making a picture in each NO after doing the one on the bottom row for the Soviets. It’s a hobby and obsession, like knitting, I sit a doodle in “Paint”. I’ll post the NO image and others by this weekend with the link to the high res picture. Thanks for all your input.

RE: NO Chart for Alpha+.2posted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
Ok great, thanks for the latest correction; I’ll get this thing straight yet.
I’ll also take out the Japan and Russia Non-Aggressions treaty Pacific UK and German roundels on the left side. I didn’t see them; they are leftovers from my house rules. If we use them, we say that Berlin or Calcutta has to fall first or the 12 IPCs doubles. This is to keep the front form opening up to soon. It doesn’t work out too well because by the time one of the VC fall the game is almost over.
And lastly my son told me about how to upload a file to a site then copy a url link to the file there. So I will finish updating and make a file and link to all the graphics I’ve posted so they will be top quality.
Have it together soon…… thanx for all your input……

RE: NO Chart for Alpha+.2posted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
Ok I fixed “conrtol” in the “5 of 7” for US and Japan, I also found it in Italy. So that’s about 15 times I copied and pasted the word control and never seen it. WOW! Anyway here it is again hopefully it good. I also put an African outline around the tank in Egypt; though it looked cool.
