EXP G40 Game 3 Trout vs JCat

beelee

yes place the Major 2nd place. Test it out just to make sure but OOB rules state that the Upgrade is placed same as the other units.

lol Actually I have to look up how OOB does it but that's how you should do it

@johnnycat said in EXP G40 Game 3 Trout vs JCat:

I LOVE the underground factory rules

Unless you're trying to Bomb them

I'm gonna dbl check on when the upgrade places OOB

Edit
OK I can't find it. I'll look at the other site. They have a FAQ thread there for G 40

Trout

@johnnycat Yes, I would just pay the 20 and upgrade to major this turn. Can place three this turn and ten next turn - or twelve next turn if you pay the 20 and then on next turn upgrade the major

JohnnyCat

@trout Thank you

So I studied this move like a chess game and all went great until after I rolled and got reasonable results I realized I missed a battle. hahaha. I did in fact have guys that could have taken your paratroopers in Bulgaria.

I am just not used to making the connection to fighting units and those little markers... so only after all the battles got rolled did I see a little "1st" marker in northern Italy that could have done it... Oh well, live and learn. Tell those guys to enjoy the town - they will be smashed next turn - except you can fly them away !

So my dream came true

And I built a German factory in Persia.

BUT QUESTION with my answers: Can I upgrade that factory to make 4 guys? (YES) Next turns of course. Can I make More than 4 guys there ever ? (NO) Can it be underground? (YES but small)

Sorry but I just cannot figure out the rules clearly on this because of my brain.

Thank you

I also want to know what the ELITE tanks are ideally for. Should I have them in those special little groups of 6? Like in the board game we get to specify which units get the extra rolls - so should I put my elite tanks inside those army groups? Or maybe they are better just being there?

@johnnycat

hello again Cat

Yea so you can't upgrade new Fctrys to Hvy Industry. Only Fctrys you originally start with. And only the original owner can upgrade them.

So you gonna max out at 3 in Persia. Might wanna get Iraq on the same program

I forgot your other question brb

Oh yea the Elite Tank. Yea you can only use it in a Army Group as part of the 10 land unit requirement.

Get 2 rolls for the price of one I kinda like em for defense in lower intensity areas

JohnnyCat

@trout Sorry for all the additional comments and questions but now that I have stuff I am trying to learn how to use it.

And I want two of those new SUB pens I just got to be in other places so should I tell you now? The rules say anywhere I own next to water at the start of that turn so I want one in Iraq now.

And the one I got the last turn would best be in Southern France I would think.

THANKS
