Hi Cat
Glad you enjoying your trip. Minus the train ride

Fctrys and Subs work basically the same as the OOB rules
https://www.hasbro.com/common/documents/60D52426B94D40B98A9E78EE4DD8BF94/6B7BC7B257E049558181A7D71B822DCF.pdf(special Global Rules at bottom of rulebooks)
with a couple exceptions. Original Fctrys at Game Start can be upgraded by the Original Owner to "Heavy Industry" . Page 27 of the Captain's rulebook
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jI_1JdIC-1KiTihBICJAbtX3GpVYnNgf/view?pli=1Basically, for 2 PUs you can update a Minor Fctry so it can now produce "4" instead of "3" units per turn.
A Major Fctry costs 3 PUs to upgrade and can produce up to 12 units per turn instead of 10.So, your Egypt Fctry can only produce 3 units. Same as OOB and yes it is a common build in OOB as well as EXP or HRE, HouseRulesExpansion.
The S Africa Fctry can be upgraded and then produce up to 4 units per turn.Submarines can be ignored by other Naval Vessels unless it is an unescorted Transport. This is the same as the OOB rules and triplea does it correctly.
The biggest difference are the German U-boats. Page 41 of the Captain's rulebook. Basically, they only cost 4 PUs instead of 6 and if there are 3 or more present, they will form a "Wolfpack" and all U-boats will Attack or Defend at "3" for the first rd of combat only.
Edit
Ftrs and Infantry are your best bet to defend against Sealion. See the "Home Defense Rule" page 38 -
• read moreI’ve gone through 50 train tunnels now and about to puke from the rocking sideways… darn Japanese built this thing when they colonized Taiwan…
But back to figuring out this crazy amazing game:
How does subs intercept fleets ? Can enemy fleets move through ?
Example: sea zones 109 110. If Uk has a stack of fighters and there are subs in those zones… how can a German invasion fleet get around this?
To put it another way… when can subs act like naval mines?
Is there any examples of play to help learn this game? If not
Would you guys be interested in helping me make such videos for a YouTube channel? I’d love to add such a thing to mine.

1 how many units can be built in Egypt ?
2 do players typically buy a factory for Egypt or just place bits in South Africa and rr them up?
Are fighters good for repelling invasion fleets like sea lion? Seems like that would be a best defense but I don’t know these rules.Thanks.
I’m back to civilization in 6 hours.

@ Edit 2
You have 2 Elites in Scotland. Can only have 1 Elite in a TTy. So either take Ireland or swap him out for a regular Inf.Reminder. The Commandos are only good if paired with Arty beelee OMFG!
The rules in this game !!! Incredible.
Ok. Thank you.
