EXP G40 Game 3 Trout vs JCat
-
@trout I wasn't going to Egypt mate
-
Italy needs at least 10 more IPU per turn to be anything ... and even that is so small.
GAME NOTES: I bought three mines that I cannot seem to place. I see that the southern Italy factory one of those small ones so can I make it bigger with the $2 of the $3 I spent on the mines?
-
@johnnycat Yes Italy can spend two lira and upgrade the S Italy factory
-
@trout ok THANK YOU then I will clean up next turn.
I just have 3 land mines floating around like you have that factory hahaha
-
@trout So is it really true that there are only a few of us playing this amazing game?
I wish I could get all these new guys I'm meeting to play - some already told me they are interested.
-
@johnnycat Well that just ..... sucks. Guess I blew up a factory & harbor for nothing
-
@trout Not for nothing - in fact, Europe has created a new National Holiday and your exploding factories were the center of the fireworks celebration...
But seriously I was trying to get to India and now I'm not sure

TAKE OVER ITALY Clause??
Please let me know if this is the case:
For the next turn I will, if possible, invoke the Take Over Italy Option and spend 5 - that means that I get a total of 19 added to the 71 Germany starts with when all is added up and all the units are converted and the outstanding Italy IPUs are added. The 3 mines that I bought will transfer as well
Is this correct?
-
@johnnycat You’re on the right track but need to read up on that rule thoroughly. For example, you can’t do it if there are any Mafiosi in Africa. So you can’t do it until that is the case at the end of an Italy turn

You need a Escort to deploy NMs. https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/assets/uploads/files/1717400187249-3.g40-naval-mines.pdf
You load them in NCM and then move them and either deploy or leave unarmed on the Escort.
Have to use edit in 2nd Plase Phase to remove the NMs and the escort. Then add the Escort back in and add Changer NMs.
Document in Comment Log where they defend. The Border they defend is in both directions.
I'm in the process of updating the examples for both LMs and NMs
They aren't very triplea user friendly. If you forget to remove in 2nd Place it won't let you. Just ignore and place the changer ones.
You only have 1 NM in Italy. The link explains how to buy and deploy
Edit
You need to evacuate Alexandia and Egypt to do the Takeover. It's somewhat involved, so you will want to go through the triplea Notes -
-
@beelee I have no units in continental Africa
-
@beelee In fact I have read those rules about the take over MANY times because I have been planning that this entire game.
-
@johnnycat I just looked again at your Italy turn and I see Mafiosi in Alexandria and Egypt. Those count as Africa. I think you're okay with the two guys in TransJordan. But you can't do it this turn. If at the end of your next Italy turn, if you don't have any units in Africa along with the other two requirements which I assume you know since you read the rules, then you can do it. Yes, would be a good move to do.
There are Game Notes in TripleA for how you can get TripleA to convert the Italians into Germans so you will need to read those too

@johnnycat said in EXP G40 Game 3 Trout vs JCat:
@beelee I have no units in continental Africa
this is what the above save shows for me.
-
@beelee what! OK let me check
That looks like one of my practice files.
-
This is what it looks like but I will load the file as well
-
I hate to say this - but the Mac kind of sucks because it does not keep the windows current like in Unix. I almost always do a practice run and save to a similar file name - so I use a dash in the filename versus underscore./
I guess I need to be more aggressive because the Mac does not keep the file name current as UNIX would do.
Anyway this is the actual game file:
