In retrospect, I realized that the Mongolian rule actually worked as intended. In addition to deactivating whenever a Japanese territory bordering China is attacked, it also applies whenever the Soviets attack Korea, as happened here.

The fact that Japan starts out at war with ANZAC and the Dutch but not the UK remains an issue.

@redrum

That makes sense. I wasn’t aware of that. Thanks for responding! :+1:

@SuperbattleshipYamato

Right, so I found the thread discussing this variant, but I didn’t notice until after I created this thread, but in case you are still confused what I’m talking about:

@Krieghund

Thank you so much!

@Linkon

I don’t understand. What are you trying to say? Thank you!

@PGsquig

Sweet! Let me know when you’re available.

@Schroeder

Great! That works.

@AndrewAAGamer

:laughing:

@surfer

Thanks for the advice! Yeah, I really messed up on those British and French bids.

Thanks for the advice regarding the other bid purchases.

@Panther

Thank you!

@SuperbattleshipYamato

Added new rule clarification:

If the British units in Paris are destroyed prior to France’s turn, France gets 4 infantry for free.

Hi!

This is the same game as the last one:

yamato-v-mike-g40-low-luck-usuk-5.tsvg

Due to a… miscalculation and the underestimation of the use of carriers as cannon fodder, the IJN lost huge.

Is there any way I can rebound? Thank you!

By the way, what are your thoughts on using carriers as cannon fodder?

I always thought that was stupid given their high cost, but the battle has made me rethink that. What is your opinion? Thank you!

@cds

I’m referring to the new neutral rules for Global 1940 created by @Charles-de-Gaulle :

@mike64

No worries. Come back when you’re ready.

I think giving the Axis and 980 IPC bid advantage was a bit too much for me…

As the Axis I beat the Allies, controlled by the hard AI.

The Allies had a 30 IPC bid, 10 IPCs per power.

To be honest, this game along with this game

https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/39997/crazy-game-i-played-on-triplea

really underscores just how inept the AI, even the best one, is when it can’t beat me even with a 30 IPC bid (and I’m not particularly good either).

Actually, probably not. The Mongolia rule’s status still hasn’t been clarified, so the game is unplayable.

If I’m being honest, while I really like alliance/side switches, this definitely isn’t my favourite.

So I guess that’s it. Bye!

As the Axis, I beat the Allies, played by the hard AI.

The Allies had a 27 IPC bid (9 IPCs per power).

@theveteran

Thank you.

@panther

Thanks.

In my opinion the option seems rather poorly named.

@panther

Thanks for clarifying.
