EXP G40 Game 3 Trout vs JCat
-
yes both bases can scramble to 109. As long as they have Planes of course.
That is an OOB rule so that's where you'd look for it's explanation.
Remember, Any AB can be upgraded so it can scramble 4. That is a HRE rule.

This is truly an amazing game. The basic Axis and Allies games are somewhat boring and feel like checkers whereas this igame feels like GO or 3D Chess. I LOVE IT
As far as game notes go: So far this seems like SOP. I would not be surprised if Japan taking the Philippines and some Money Islands is SOP like Germany taking France turn 1.
-
Yes once JPN and USA are at War, JPN will usually want to take out the PHIs as soon as possible. Singapore should go next.
At least that's how I rate them. There are other strategies one could use where that might not be the case though

Mafia needs WAY MORE cash - next time I wonder if we need play with a bid...

@johnnycat Yeah, well. That's why that move which UK did is a popular gambit. You can see quite a few articles on the A&A forum discussing the merits of the "Taranto Raid" which is what it's called. Not everyone does it but the big benefit is that it really sets Italy back alot in the first few turns. The negative is it wipes out alot of expensive UK hardware also and takes the Bomber out of the UK where it's useful for many things in the North Atlantic. Italy is always the weak Axis sister compared to Japan & Germany. It's possible for Italy to recover from it but it usually needs G to help a bit with it by building U-Boats in SZ 93 and sending air & ground units to the Med area also. Frankly that is pretty close to how history played out in the real WW2 anyway.

I am SO UNIMPRESSED by the poor quality of these rule books...

Japan is too tired to type - Emperor Whatever his name is, call this a national day of early rest. No battles were fought even. not really. well a couple small ones but of no effect...

@johnnycat Good morning JC. Noticed that in your G3, you placed a factory in Greece and 3 U-Boats in Ty Sea. But not allowed to do that. Units can only be placed in a factory that existed before the turn starts. Do you want to redo your G3 or just have me revise your turn via Edit? If revise, do you want to place the 3 UBoats in the North Atlantic or use your 12 Franks for something else?
