I followed the Order of Loss discussed previously you and @beelee but the game kept trying to kill your transport first so I had to intervene but I gather that is what is desired. In fact, I expect to start using the edit function much more as I learn how things work, are supposed to work, and do not yet work.

Triplea will auto select your weakest units on defense as casualties first. That's why you have to PlayerEnforce selecting the ones that follow the rules correctly.
e.g. it will also want to select Fortifications and unarmed LMs. On defense, LCVs. All of those need to be deselected and a legal casualty then selected.

If you decide to attack W. Ukraine, you will need some help with how to do that because of the AG.

@trout THINGS GETTING COMPLICATED NOW hahaha
And thank you sir, my job is to learn but ALSO "make things VERY difficult" for the Bad Guys...
Meanwhile, the good guys are pumping Mother Russia full of the shiniest new fighter planes and tactical bombers (and tanks) thanks to the generous American tax payer, heehee
-
@trout Do players make "deals" in this game?
As an example: Could we do something like agree to not cross a specific border (e.g. West to East Ukraine) for x-turns?
I am just curious. I don't ever play chess with such deals but this is a different animal so I wanted to ask.
-
@johnnycat All is fair in war, love, and A&A!
No deals like that. There are deals with regards to. Oops forgot to move the transport or I would not have done that if I knew the rule was this. Then there are agreements up front to not use certain optional rules. Beelee and myself use all of them except Type XXI U-Boats for example. But no agreements to not attack this territory if you don't attack that territory. -
@johnnycat So the rule on lend-lease is that USA or UK sends up to three units to Soviet territory then on Soviet turn, Stalin pays the conversion fee and the units become Soviet and can immediately move out. But your USA planes are in Korea currently, so you would need to land them in Soviet territory on USA 5 then they can be used by Soviets on R6
-
yea doesn't really work for a game with only 2 sides imo. I mean I guess the blokes traded tires to jerry in WWI for binoculars but yea don't think it works here.
Triplea does have some FreeForAll games where people do that.
Edit
@JohnnyCat also you can't use your planes in combat the turn they are being "lended" in LendLease.So your 3 UK planes in Novgorod do qualify if jerry doesn't kill them before SSR turn. Be sure to buy the "AirLL" unit during purchase and place during 1st place.
Then use edit to switch units before Combat Phase. -
@trout ok. Got it.
Wow we not using those super subs. I hope we are because I need to learn all that and Germany looks particularly complicated.
-
well you and Trout are
The Type XXIsYou can hit "Game" top left
Then "Game Options"
and it'll show you what's active.
Edit
You should also refer to the "TimeTable" top right for when new/special units/events enter play. It's good to look a couple turns ahead.If you hover on the image it will tell you what it is in deatil
The Red year color is the current year. In this case "Early 1942" also known as turn 5. Hover on "Free Ships" and it tells you what Free Ships JPN and USA get that turn.

Whoa Nelly !!!
Only 2 UK Rail per turn. PlayerEnforced
Edit
Iraq should still be British tooEdit 2
So I guess keep the first 2 Rails to India from egypt with the Arty and revert the rest. Probably won't affect Italy as Egypt would be stronger anyway. Idk maybe he land moves into Jordan.W/e it's a learing game
