A question for Gary Skaar

Post by macgregor »

I tried the email address from the 'War in the West' scenario info, but it was returned. Our teamplay game is at turn 30. France, Norway, and Denmark have become playable. My troops for weserbung won't arrive until next turn. Should I assume I'll have a theater option then, or can I invade Denmark now? Time is of the essence and I want to move on Denmark yesterday. There is nothing in the 'ground rules' that says I can't. If anyone is familiar with this situation, please chime in. I'll give this post an hour or two, and then the trucks start rolling.

As far as i can remember the color code of the units define where they can be used. Also, units from i.e the Polish campaign will be withdrawn after the end of the campaign, and re-appear in a new color code showing their next assignment.

That is all true, and what I take from that is that I cannot attack with any units designated for 'Fall Gelb'. However, what I can't explain is the significance of the activation of Denmark and Norway if I'm not allowed to attack with permanent units at least.

I glanced at the briefing and it does list a different color scheme for Scandanavia, so it looks like we can assume that you will get a TO for activation, unless these activations are hardwired (I haven't looked at the scenario).

•Poland offensive: Black and white over grey.
•Scandinavian offensive: Grey and black over grey.
•French offensive: Purple and white over grey.
•Balkans offensive: White and blue over grey.

Thanks for the responses. As it turns out, there were no Danish or Norwegian units on the map yet. So I've decided to restart the turn and wait.
