Hi !
I came to hear there exist a “Home Defense trick”, which i understood as this:
instead a message appeared: “Home Defense not satisfied”,
both in the Strategic Movement and the Operation Phases.
I get that what i tried was against the spirit of the policy,
but the section 10.3.1.1 Home Defense Not Satisfied of the Rulebook says:
I guess there is something i did not understand, but what?
Thanks for any answer!
I came to hear there exist a “Home Defense trick”, which i understood as this:
- Germany moves its 5-sorties fighters out of the West front (for example);
- At the next turn, it benefit from the Home Defense obligation to repatriate there fresh fighters further than 10 hexes away.
instead a message appeared: “Home Defense not satisfied”,
both in the Strategic Movement and the Operation Phases.
I get that what i tried was against the spirit of the policy,
but the section 10.3.1.1 Home Defense Not Satisfied of the Rulebook says:
And especially:At the start of its faction’s Strategic Movement Phase and again at the start of its Operations Phase; if a country is not satisfying a
Home Defense policy rule above, its faction must attempt to satisfy that rule.
For each unsatisfied rule, the faction chooses and repatriates (10.4) the required unit from a hex and/or Map Box and puts it in a location that satisfies that rule. It continues to do this until the rule is fully satisfied or the necessary unit or location is unavailable.
After all possible repatriation, if the rule is still not satisfied, continue playing that phase.
So i would have thought that no Home Defense-check would be made once the game gave me the possibility to move units.There is no other impact.
I guess there is something i did not understand, but what?
Thanks for any answer!
