      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

          @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

              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?

                    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

                      @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

                          I need to check Subpens. Idk if you can have one not in Europe brb again take 2 🙂

                          Screenshot from 2026-03-01 22-33-00.png

                          so you are team green for Iraq

                          Edit
                          Hmm ... this gives me pause

                          Screenshot from 2026-03-01 22-35-00.png

                          I am not entirely certain. I think you can build one anywhere but the free ones can only be placed ? Idk

                          I think it's worthy of a Captain question 🙂

                          Edit 2
                          Actually I think it just means you need to be in control of the TTy it places at the start of your turn, so Iraq back to full on bowl up 😎

                            @beelee well if @Trout doesn't crush me this turn then maybe I'll be able to build out the Middle East which was my plan/hope the entire game.

                              @johnnycat Good morning JC. Looking at your turn, you don't need to redo it. But two things:

                              1. It appears from how you placed your U-Boats around UK that you think they can block naval movements but that's not true. U-Boats/Subs & Transports don't block any ship movements. It won't matter during my Russia turn but on your J turn, use Edit to re-locate your U-Boats if you want. Or I can do it for you on my USA turn before I start doing stuff.

                              2. I feel like I need to let you know ahead of time about a few rules specific to China as I think it matters alot for what you do with your Indochina stack. So China is not allowed to move outside of China except for two territories which are Hong Kong and Burma. So my Chinese hordes cannot touch you when you are in Indochina or if you move to Shan State or Siam. But if you move to Burma or Kwangsi then I can.

                              Taking kiddos to school so will be awhile before I post my R turn but had a few minutes to type this out

                                    @trout thanks. I knew all that.

                                    The subs are there for a reason. And yes they cannot block.

                                    I knew if the China thing too. Thank you !!! How am I gonna slip by them hmmm!??
