I ashore, now where is that line?

Post by stldiver »

I just landed in india, felt I had to , economy and all, those capitalist trying to keep everything to themselves.

Needless to say I know there is a trigger line for additional reinforcements, but not sure where that line is.

I looked in the book so far no luck (yes I leaped before checking).

This I found Historiker put up.

When Invaded, some places recieve additional Forces and additional Armament:
India
When a Japanese Unit crosses the horzontal line one hex south of Dehli, additional Indian units are diverted from Europe. They arrive at Aden and Capetown and have to be transported to India, first.

New Zeeland
Whenever invaded, the european NZ divisions are sent home. They arrive at Aden.

Australia
If the horizontal line one hex south of Brisbane is invaded, addition Units arrive at Aden, Capetown and Canada to defend Australia.


Question is is this accurate? and where can I find this info in the book. And is there a list of those units?

Thanks to all those helping the empire expand.

I think you should take one for the team and attack Dehli so that the rest of us will know what to expect [:)]

I wouldnt get close to Delhi yet either, but, if you take all the ports on the West Coast of India, then all those forces that become available, might be nice targets for Bettys when they try to relieve India.

Delhi or BUST!

In WITP I made it to karachi in a straight up line and fought tooth and nail the whole way
only to last a week before enormous allied troops cut across supply lines from coastal areas,
I had destroyed china and had russia down to 1 hex and could not destroy them so I had huge
forces in india only to get pounded by thousands of artillary, supply lines split and backpeddled
all the way to Calcutta..
But it was near the end of 44 and displaced huge amount of allied troops as well as destroyed many
so I think it was well worth the effort but you need to have china gone rather quickly as I did..
Dont think ya can hold it forever but it will play into the end game for sure..
The essence of military genius is to bring under
consideration all of the tendencies of the mind
and soul in combination towards the business of
war..... Karl von Clausewitz

Thanks for all the advice,

At the moment, I need to breakout of Calcutta first!

Andy Mac, is it exact one hex south of Dehli, or as you say stay back. Your not telling the exact line I have to step over.

The Emporer wants the Indians to join the Co-prosperity sphere peacefully, but allows the commanders the discretion to bring
them in line if they don't listen to their liberators! [:)]
