K, don’t know if this has been posted, but in this version is the zone to the northeast that is just touching the corner of Britain considered adjacent so you can place new sea units there?

Welcome, Snag!

Sea zone 3 is adjacent to United Kingdom.

Ah yes, that was exactly the conversation I was thinking of. You are quite right, I was thinking of a defending air unit. In combat the air units would retreat during the non-combat movement phase and of course not have movements allowed and would crash.

ha ha thanks guys i forgot it mentioned that in the rules (the whole it takes a way a unit being placed in that space thing)

But I’m glad I read all of them because I’ve been trying out different strategies and one of them was to go and strategic bomb my friend just to kill fighters. Thanks for advising against it. :)

Very helpful I will definitely ask more questions to you guys if I need them.

Thx very much for your quick answer.

The off/unloading in one movement gibts especially japan and britain more possibilities then in the games we did so far.

The game is so great !!! Can’t believe it took me so long to find it ;)

@chompers:

Hey all, quick question. Let’s say Japan attacks the US with a battleship, carrier, and 2 fighters. The US defends with a carrier and two fighters. Turn one the US takes 2 hits and chooses to remove the carrier and a fighter. If Japan calls off the attack at that point to avoid letting the fighter roll another dice, does the remaining US fighter simply die off as it has no carrier to land on? Or does it have the option of re-basing somewhere?

The remaining US fighter can move 1 space to land at a friendly territory/island/carrier. It it can’t land then it is destroyed.

@Cuyahoga:

I see…

Now say that UK takes all their 34 IPC…

Then say the next German turn…they have no IPC on paper…so the don’t buy any new forces…they do their
combat turn…they take back Berlin…they move their IPC marker back up from 24 to 34…then they collect IPC…they record on paper they have 34 IPC ( which they hope they will have to spend on next turn).

Then the UK does their turn and they retake Berlin again…so are you saying once again they grab those 34 IPC ?

If that is so…wouldn’t Germany be digging them in a big hole as far as UK amassing a huge ammount of IPC?

This seems an unfair rule?

Am i still missing something?

opps , i made an error…when i said that on Germany’s first turn after losing their capital…that thay had no IPC on paper and thus could buy no new forces…that was an error on my part…because they can’t buy new forces when their capitalis occupied by the enemy…

i was thinking about that if they kept interceptors at the IC then they couldn’t use them on attack runs against you also, but yes, I believe that they choose between the attack and the SBR for defense as well. Should they choose to intercept the SBR and then loose the territory, they would have the one move point to find a safe landing zone, such as with carriers being sunk and fighters needing to land…

Therefore Saltz, keep that in mind in your strategies. Always, I MEAN ALWAYS, have enough infantry fodder to bring to battle. This is an economic war as much as anything. If you keep losing tanks and planes on hits because you don’t have enough ‘fodder infantry’ to throw to the wolves you will surely lose your battles. Unless of course your opponent’s buys are the same as yours.

Hey, there’s an idea. Have a war with no infantry or artillery. See how that works out. Might be fun, never know.
