1:30:15 The reason any sub can go through Gibraltar regardless of whether their side controls Gibraltar is because IRL the Strait of Gibraltar is much deeper than the other straits (and canals) so subs were able to submerge deeply enough to evade sonar detectability.

Thanks for the lesson, I just played my first global this week and was somewhat overwhelmed by the variables. My opponent was nice enough to point out bonuses I was not focusing on. I took allies because I figured Axis needed to have a plan while I was more likely to survive by reacting, we played through turn 6 and nobody actually lost, but I think my Russia was on borrowed time. G4 and I did my best orderly retreat, my England I was too timid, skipping the full Toronto raid, I sunk 2 small Italian boats and my boats all left the Mediterranean (foolishly unaware of the bonus $), they protected the Indian ocean off and on as the Japanese leviathan fleet came and went. Italy was well over $40 turns 5&6, I think my Russia was toast by turn 9 or 10 as my USA built equally in both oceans. My last 2 turns (5&6) saw England and USA both attacking and taking Territories in France but I could see it was temporary and instead I needed to retake Gibraltar and Morocco to push Italy back to the $20 something income. My opponent was in statistical analysis (retired) and could well calculate probabilities without hesitation. I'm going to set it up and try a solo, I need a better allied plan, I didn't temp him to sealion, I seen a video on that, building mostly ground in England and saving $6 incase the 10 German transports appeared.

GeneralHandGrenade OK, might be a matter of theoretical vs practical to say that it is possible but only if the defender is dumb enough to let the attacker sneak attack at 2. better for the defender to submerge to convoy or fight another day. rules specifically state that in the absence of an enemy destroyer, a sub can choose to submerge and avoid a seabattle. if there are only subs & ships without a destroyer in a SZ, the defending subs have, and should use, the option to submerge,. unless they are needed to take hits for task force ships.

I know that it doesn't connect directly to it but that you can get there from the Med. Of course you have to go through the Indian Ocean first. Having said that it's probably easier to go around Africa and through the Indian Ocean instead of the Med. It would be quicker to go through Panama but if the Americans have a large fleet it would be a suicide run for the Axis. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I've only ever played 1st edition of 1940, so I'm not sure if this rule changed, but... are you sure that UK is considered an "island"? Is there a reference to the specific place in the rules that says this? The Europe 1940 rulebook (1st ed) that I have defines an island as "a territory located entirely inside *one* sea zone". Furthermore, the section about the scramble "unit characteristic" of Air Bases (page 25) explicitly says "note that the United Kingdom is *not* an island". I had been assuming that the UK, Japan, Australia, and even New Guinea are *NOT* islands because they are either not a single territory, or they are not entirely contained within a single sea zone. Am I wrong about any of those? Did this change between 1st ed and 2nd ed?

At ~ 41 - 42:00 you have a failed amphibious transport getting sunk by a 2 fighter scramble (in Scotland) where “because both fighters hit both cruiser and transport are sunk. I didn’t know a roll was required or applied at all to transports. In this case a defensive roll. Is that an exception in the rules for dealing with defenseless transports?

I'm a little unclear on something, when you re-take a territory that was previously held by an allied nation (liberating french territories in Africa, taking the dutch indies, ect), does the country which liberates that land space get the ipc's if the original owner is out of the game (for france or holland in this case)?
@primroselane1

You get the IPC's if that original nation doesn't have a capital. If you retook a French territory for instance you would get those IPC's. Then if France was liberated then your roundel would be removed from that territory(s) and the French would get the money. The UK and Anzac can take the Dutch territories straight from the the Dutch and collect that money. The US has to liberate a Dutch territory from the Axis in order to get the money for the territory.

During an amphibious assault, the attacker can ignore subs in the water - but can't the defender choose to defend with the defender's sub? Wouldn't be similar to a naval battle where there are not any destroyers - the defender can choose to engage his/her subs?
@primroselane1

No. As long as the attacker has surface warships, then they can ignore subs. The sub doesn't have a choice if the attacker ignores them in this case. If there are no surface warships then the sub can't be ignored and it will have the choice of fighting or submerging.

Hello General, it's me again. Sorry for hitting you with so many questions, but I'm planning on getting Pacific 1940 and Europe 1940 very soon. Do you have any house rules that would allow defending units to retreat from a battle? In other versions that I have played I always found it rather unfair that the defender does not have the option to retreat even if it would be advantageous for him or her to do so, would you please give me your thoughts on the matter? I'm not sure how something like that would affect the balance of the game

I have a rule that the defender can retreat during the start of a combat round, and they can only retreat after combat ends. i have this to simulate the organisation needet for a coordinated retreat. Also if a defender chooses to retreat, then the attacker can still attack, and all casualties from the defender do not attack, nor do the troops that survived. After that round is complete the defender can choose which provinces his units retreat to

Great retreat rule, I was thinking along those lines myself, retreating defenders don't get to return fire, also, by not returning fire AND by not retreating also, units can destroy all improvements like factory, airbase and naval ports, and... neutral units (any non infantry cost $1 less, must be white and is transported to a friendly factory where the factory owner pays $1 and replaces the white "unmanned" unit with their own color units.

I hope this gets a response even though its 3 years old, but end game japan was about to win in the pacific because they took Hawaii. The US tried to come with a fleet, but it was a draw because japan had subs and the US had planes without destroyers. Since japan didnt say the subs submerged, do the subs block the transport from landing? Should the allies have one that game instead? (Germany failed a sea lion and got kicked in the ass hard, also italy couldnt roll to save its life.

According to the rules subs are able to first strike each round of combat solong as no destroyer is present which I didn't like that rule so we changed it to the first strike only happening during the first round of combat which was how the old rules were if I remember correctly
@LunaWolf217

lasko24 my argument for keeping the rule as it is would be to point out that combat in axis and allies is representing days and weeks of conflict, perhaps even months. In this case to me the first strike would be representing the multiple opportunities for surprise strikes against convoys that are being stalked by a group of u-boats for days on end, rather than simply the initial salvo of a protracted naval firefight. Just my two sense on the matter, and obviously play the game a you enjoy it most :)

GeneralHandGrenade: Thank you for the very helpful video ! I do still have a question as follows from us newbies in Phoenix as follows: The situation we had is that the US had 2 carriers (loaded with 4 planes), and a cruiser, all in 1 sea zone. On Germany's moves, 1 German Sub was moved into this US occupied Sean zone and prepared for a Surprise Strike. Here is the question: Since the US has no destroyer in the sea zone, it appears that the US planes and cruiser can not see the German submarine. So it appears that the German sub can just keep attacking the US fleet on the same turn with serial Surpise Strikes and anihilate the entire US fleet in that 1 sea zone ? This outcome doesn't seem correct though. Can you help ?

Hi Paul. The sub has 2 choices when he is in a battle with no enemy Destroyer. At the beginning of each round of combat, he can either have a first strike and then be open to the other warships in counter-attack, or he can submerge without taking a shot and nobody gets a shot at him. The planes won't get any shots at the sub because there is no Destroyer if he decides to stay, but the 2 carriers and the cruiser will get to shoot at him ( except of course if one of them was hit by the sub on first strike, it doesn't shoot back). If it wasn't for the cruiser I would say that it's a good idea to attack because carriers are especially susceptible to subs. If the planes don't have a safe place to land then you only need to hit the carrier once to kill the planes. With the cruiser though it would probably just be a suicide run for the sub.

I did not think that either the planes on a carrier, or the carrier itself, could defend against a sub unless there was a destroyer in the sea zone. But is it correct that even without a destroyer, planes, carriers, and all warships can shoot (defend) at a sub once the sub declares and implements a surprise strike ?

With the aircraft carrier could you, during the combat movement phase, launch the fighters to attack somewhere and leave the carrier where it is as long as the planes would be able to make it back to the carrier on the noncombat phase? Or does the Carrier have to go with them?

The carrier does not have to go with them. Even if a carrier is moving with the planes on it, the planes are considered to be in the air. After the planes take off from a carrier they don't have to return to that carrier. They can land anywhere there is a legal landing space for them. You could even land planes that came from somewhere else on that carrier after it's own planes have taken off from that carrier and landed somewhere else.
