2nd Edition Q&A

dice roller question

feeds@yuku.com (jt0565) — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 15:30:02 GMT

The battle is in NOR. Germany sends one sub, 3 ftr, 1 bmb and gets two hits. The sub and the bb hit for the Allies. Why would the auto s roller leave the germans with 3 ftrs, 1 bmb for round 2? I suspect it has something with the sub not being able to hit air but should the Germans really have 3 ftr left?

naval withdrawal question

feeds@yuku.com (jt0565) — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 17:03:51 GMT

Consider the epo battle. Say you bring in the japanese navy and get two hits. The US decides to keep the sub and retreat. Does this mean the japanese navy can also do a retreat move? They did not destroy all the units so I don't know how that would be determined.

Error correction

Russia attacked a territory with 7 units in it (icludes 2 BMB). After wiping out 5 of those units in a battle the Russians retreat using the default OOL and end the turn. Germany then completes it's turn. In the Post Combat the Germans bring up that the Russians should have asked for OOL in Russia's turn. Honest Russian mistake. If Russian's decide to rectify mistake would they get to continue attack when Axis decides to keep 1 or more BMBs or still have to retreat?

Captured AA Movement

feeds@yuku.com (HippieKSEFall88) — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 06:46:58 GMT

My opponent recaptured a territory that has an AA. Is he allowed to move the AA during NonCombat of the turn he recaptured it? I don't believe so, but am not sure.

non combat move

feeds@yuku.com (strategicspock) — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 17:52:01 GMT

I beleive I read this somewhere, but can not find it. Is it leagal for a ftr from an ac in azo to participate in a battle in feq and return to same carrier during combat, and that same carrier moves to nor s/z during non combat with same ftr aboard? I beleive it can, but need to verify. Thanks

Order of Loss

feeds@yuku.com (mangomike) — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 10:33:16 GMT

For a sea battle involving SUBs can a defender choose which attacker hit.

This is the battle:
4 FTR 1 SUB vs 1 BB 1 TRN 1 SUB
SUB missed and attacker FTR hit 3 and defender hit 3

Defender says that the TRN hit SUB and therefore SUB can not fire at a FTR and SZ is cleared by 3 FTR

My thoughts were that SUB would have hit SUB and TRN BB hit 2 FTR and SZ cleared by 2 FTR

Let me know.

Liberating a territory

feeds@yuku.com (Leothelop) — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 07:48:28 GMT

Heres the situation: Germany has captured Caucasus, Japan has captured Mos, US liberates Caucasus and collects 3 IPCs, Russia then liberates Mos, Caucasus it reverted back to Mos and US losses 3 IPCs in territory but keeps the cash, Russia at the end of its turn collects 3 IPCs for Caucasus. Is this a legal move?

Liberating a territory

feeds@yuku.com (Leothelop) — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 07:41:22 GMT

I'm in a game right now and unsure about a situation. Caucasus was captured by Germany, Japan then captures Mos, the US liberates Caucasus and collects the 3 IPCs, (because Russia has lost it capital), then Russia liberates Mos, Caucasus is reverted back to Russia and US losses 3 IPCs in territory, but keeps the cash, and then Russia collects another 3 IPCs and the end of the round. Is this a legal move?

AA gun control

feeds@yuku.com (Ghost7777) — Sat, 11 Jul 2009 07:35:29 GMT

Germany controls Leningrad and its aa gun. The US successfully liberates Leningrad. Can Russia immediately move the aa gun to a different territory or does it have to control the territory for an entire turn before it can be moved?

defender inf vs arm CDE

feeds@yuku.com (AATorped0) — Sun, 07 Jun 2009 09:24:33 GMT

silly little question.. defender has 1 tank in a territory and the attacking order states the defender is an infantry, is this battle a CDE even if they both defend at 2? thanks-

What happens in this situation II?

feeds@yuku.com (pcr3939) — Sun, 15 Mar 2009 05:35:38 GMT

Sorry guys I'm full of errors lately that I'm sure will cost me my games.

O.k. it's U.S.'s turn and he originally sends a arm from fin>rus.Later on in the NC phase he decides he wants to send it to kar with his inf.So this is how the NC phase looks.

5 inf,1 aa-lib>egy
2 bmb-per>wca
1 aa,2 inf-wca>fin(via 2 trn-uksz)
1 arm-eca>fin(via trn-uksz)
1 bmb-kar>wca
6 inf-wus>wca
1 trn-car>goc
1...

What happens in this situation?

feeds@yuku.com (pcr3939) — Sun, 15 Mar 2009 05:27:11 GMT

In a game that I'm playing I wanted to load up kar for a possible attack from eeu.I however wrote my NC moves like this

1 aa-rus>eve
1 aa-kaz>nov
1 aa-cau>per
5 inf-per>kar*******As you can see I intended to write cau.There wasn't any units in per to move******
2 ftr-kaz>kar
3 inf,1 ftr-rus>kar
2 inf-rus>eve

We don't pass maps and I included a update with the units in kar.So my belief is he updates his map...

Is this legal??

feeds@yuku.com (Unit10) — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 12:38:00 GMT

I'm not sure if the action taken by my opponent is legal or not,

but I sure would like know the answer.

The dice server sends the combat and time each action is taken.

A player attack Wmd sz with sub,2ftrs vs bb and misses. The bb get a hit leaving 2ftrs.

My opponent stops that battle and continues all other battles. Lab sz, Emd sz,Egypt, and Syria.

Then after that he does the Wmd sz battle again with 2 ftrs vs bb. The second one get a hit and...

bridging UK troops w/the Soviet trn

feeds@yuku.com (Ghost7777) — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 05:13:35 GMT

The Allies have a Soviet trn sitting in NOR w/2 UK inf. On the next UK move, those 2 inf are transported to FIN and another 2 inf UK are moved onto the trn. Is this move legal?

sub in EMD

feeds@yuku.com (Leothelop) — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 08:35:51 GMT

I have a new recruit who asked why is the sub placed in EMD and not RED at the begining of the game. I couldn't answer becasue I didn't know or forgot I knew, either way I don't know now. In the rules it states Egy-Syr seazone, which could be either place, can someone help clear this up?

Rolling column by column

feeds@yuku.com (Ghost7777) — Sun, 17 Aug 2008 05:24:32 GMT

In a recent game, my opponent attacked EPO on JA-1 w/3 ftr, 1 sub vs 1 ftr, 1 ac, 1 sub. My sub and ftr scored defensive hits, but the attacker casualties were listed as 1 sub 1. Since the dice are rolled column by column, my sub should have rolled first (hitting the Japanese sub), then my ac rolled (and missed), and finally my ftr rolled and hit. Does the attacker suffer 1 or 2 casualties?

chosing aa casualties

feeds@yuku.com (edvinf) — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 14:38:22 GMT

If I have gotten this correctly, attacker gets to choose which planes dives to aa-gun fire in 2nd edition.

If planes destined for different battles has to (/wants to) fly over the same aa gun en-route, will this aa gun fire be resolved simultaneously for all planes flying over, or will the aa gun fire be resolved for each battle separately?

example (US turn):

combat:
#1 UKR inf
LEN: 2 inf
NOR: 2 ftr (fly over aa gun in EEU)

#2 BLA trn...

Gulf of Mexico

I didn't want to screw this up...Is Eus adjacent to any water other than ECO? For example, GOM?
There is a Japanese INF in Panama and a TRN nearby, and I am trying to block him by putting a US transport in ECO...
