#1 Using LHTR rules if there is a transport that started the turn with 2 inf aboard, Can you unload 1 inf in combat and the other in noncombat (same territory).?
#2 If a transport was forced to retreat from an amphibious assault, can it unload in noncombat move (units were loaded in combat move)? - LHTR rules as well.

No. Subs only fire in the Opening Fire step, which happens in each combat round.

I have done something very similar to this. My buddy knew I always go for Moscow first. This game I planned to. I bought 3 transports on G1. Made the med attack with the sub and med fleet.

G2 masses Germany navy in SZ7 took London. My buddy does the Ho-Chi-Men trail through the US to deter Japan from steping foot on the US mainland. In addition to this he built a navy once they got to E Canada (2 rounds later) he took and held London. I never got it back.

Had I not done some fast thinking with Japan on the US W coast Germany would have been toast.

I had a topic started about conducting Sealion every ones 8 ball said no b/c Germany needs help from Japan. So I think you would have more luck with a Canadian Sheild then you would with a Sealion.

Yes. Air attacks (other than SBRs) work in the same way as any other attack. The attack continues until one side or the other (or both) is destroyed, or the attacker retreats (or the defender submerges if it’s a sub).

I agree, there’s not a lot of times you’d want to do that. But I could see it in rare circumstances. Usually transports, even unloaded ones (who leaves loaded transports out where they can be shot at?)

More fun is when someone forgets in AAR a submarine does not block enemy submarines and you sail under, sink his three aircraft carriers, submerge with your surviving submarines and watch his 6 fighters go sploosh in the Pacific Ocean. It was a beautiful day. He could have recovered easily, but the moral hit alone caused him to concede the game. The best part is, submarines can’t shoot aircraft, so he HAD to take the carriers as casualties!

How often does that occur? Like almost never! Same with having a need to send fighters out to kill something and feinting at enemy ships to make the move “legal” even if you have no intention of ever recovering those fighters!

Fgt movement & landing question

@ShadowHAwk:

Can i agree with the fact that in the current rules the carrier does NOT have to move if the fighter was destroyed, but at the same time not agree with the rules itself ?

Because it is not logical that the carrier does not start its move to meet up with the figher at the same time since it it start after the figher completed its move in a normal situation it would not be there on time to catch the aircraft.

Basicaly the time it takes for the carrier to get there is the same as the time it takes for the fighter to get there and since the carrier needs to be there at the same time in order for the pilot to remain dry it logical should start sailing in the general direction of the pickup point.

Since the Fighter in question could be “flying” from Gibraltar to the Caucus in one turn, I don’t think the model of aircraft taking off and landing as part of a days flight operations on a Carrier quite applies. Especially since Naval aircraft are built very differently from land based aircraft yet the game makes no difference between the two.
