EXP G40 Game 2 Trout vs. JohnnyCat
-
These small TTys can be easy to miss sometimes as the Units will overflow into the SZ. There's a couple ways to do it but you being on a mac it might do it different as Idk what shift does.
On linux I click on an empty space in the TTy or SZ and it will list my Units.
You then select the ones you want to move and move them to the TTy.
Or you can manually click on each unit and then move them to the TTy.
Anyway your Tank missed and UK got 2 hits. Since I'm a neutral party, I will roll it out with the Dice Roller. If your opponent should not agree for some reason, then you would want to use Dicebot.
Seeing how this is a Gentleman's game, I will use the dice roller.
So we need to roll for 2 Inf and 1 Tank that didn't land. The first 2 dice are for the Inf.
1 Tank gets a hit. So UK takes the AA Gun as casualty and the 2 Italian Inf are killed for the 2 hits that UK got.
That leaves 2 Tanks against a Inf and a Ftr The first two dice are the Tanks then Inf Ftr
So 1 Tank gets a hit and the Inf and Ftr miss leaving 2 tanks against 1 Ftr
Both Tanks hit and the Ftr misses again. Italy takes Malta with 2 Tanks.
At start of NCM use edit to remove the UK Units and change Ownership to Malta. Add 2 Tanks to Malta. Remove the unlanded Units and Trprts, otherwise triplea won't let you remove them and then add the 2 Trprts back in.

@beelee OK. THANK YOU
So should we know how to do separate dice rolls? I don't yet see how to do that.

@johnnycat
I just did the rolls for you using the dice roller.Edit

@trout
Mafia turn 1 complete. Aussies (and French) next; show me how to run the ANZAC correctly cause I had no idea in our first game and had you not let me snipe a Jap Transport I would not have known what to do with them. They are more pathetic than Italy.Thanks to @beelee for fixing that amphibious landing problem (and also my new group of 18 AA players here in San Jose).

So as the game notes state, there is very little Italy can do early on - only 10 PUs ! Wow that is tiny, can Germany lend them some cash?
I do have my first ever NAVAL MINE - I can't wait to deploy that somewhere cool, like off the coast of New York.

@beelee ok. found it.. wow had no idea. Thanks
-
@beelee. OMG I just saw that @Trout's USA attacked my peaceful Japanese zen masters!
That reminds me to ask: Is there one place where all the PU Bonuses and penalties are listed?
Like I just noticed somewhere that the Japs have to avoid taking French Indo China or lose 10 PU per turn. Wow. and now I cannot even find that again.
QUESTION: what is the consequences of USA attacking Japan turn 1? Any triggers for equipment or money?
-
@johnnycat Yes, a bunch of bonuses kick in. Although one US bonus is if I have Philippines, which you took away on Turn 1 so I didn't get that one. It's still not a terrible decision but the main advantage for J of not attacking on J1 is to keep USA from getting their wartime bonuses.

-
USA can't attack JPN J1 unless JPN has DOW on UK or USA. If JPN DOW UK only, then USA can DOW on Turn 1 and attack.
The Objectives Tab shows most Bonuses but not all. Any other Bonuses you achieve will list at end of Turn or they're supposed too. Works on Windows but not on linux anymore.
I have to check History now.
Edit
National Guard kicks in page 31
-
@johnnycat If this new information would have changed your decision, you can redo your J1 turn. The bonuses for USA when they are at war are:
- +14 every turn regardless of circumstances from the House Rules Expanded Production
- +5 for Philippines
- +10 if control Homeland USA territories
- +5 if control Alaska, Hawaii, Aleutians, Johnston Island, Line Island
- +5 if control Mexico, SE Mexico, Central America, West Indies
- +10 for Japan if at peace with USA
So total of +39 or +34 if Philippines taken once USA at war in addition to -10 for Japan since they lose the peacetime bonus. There's also a one-time National Guard rule whenever J attacks USA which you can see above. If USA attacks J, then no National Guard bonus. In OOB games, all of the bonuses apply except the +14 and the National Guard, yet J1 attack is very common OOB strategy because you can get started right away in taking those juicy territories like DEI, Hong Kong, and Philippines. But in HRE, not as common
The French Indochina bonus is only for playing Pacific 1940 instead of Global 1940
-
@trout cool. Thanks for that.
So I can take French Indo China and not get penalized?
In our game 1 I noticed that you did not take that territory when you could have many turns.
Why was that?
And no I’ll keep going. No need to take over jap 1 as I need to learn this game.
-
No you lose the 10 Bucks Peacetime bonus if JPN attacks FIC. There is a +30 USA bonus in the Pacific only game he may have been referring to
-
@johnnycat Yes, you should always take FIC after attacking Allies, since it's an easy 2$ pickup and no penalty
-
@trout German 2 I am bombing London with a bunch of junk.
Do you fly up to meet said junk?

yea the ss boys get seasick
It's for gameplay/balance is my guess and some of the Heavy German Armor can't use Naval Trprt either if I remember right. They can all use Rail movement though. -

yep that's what I did too when I first started playing. Still need to sometimes
So does the Captain for that matter -
@beelee James Bond has reported directly to the King of England and Mr. Churchill that he has a Code Red situation and that German production has been diverted to maximum production of transports. British are extremely worried and Mr. Churchill has ordered all available manpower to be trained for Home Defense.

There was a huge Yard Sale in Burma and the emperor sent us there to BUY EVERYTHING.
SUMMARY: Very standard Jap 2 turn I would imagine. Took some islands... too advantage of your Burma move - dude I made that move and regretted it and lost India. remember? I will remember always to not over-expose the brits outside India.

Not sure how the RAF can fly a mission and land on a carrier that wasn't around when they departed their airfields but as they say in Alabama & Mississippi "dem's the rules by golly". More than makes up for that debacle in the Mediterranean where Churchill lost a battle that was over 95% odds of winning which has allowed Italy to kick around his Tommies in the Med ever since. J is having a bunch of fun in East Asia I see. Hopefully the Chinese can get a bit of revenge before their inevitable demise comes along. Mafia up!
