It is a tie at zero to zero for island control who owns the island with no land units there.

Does it revert to who controlled the Island? Based on the tie rule.

Control of the island doesn’t change if it’s a tie.

You’re welcome.

It would be easy to mark them, you could simply tip them on their sides like in revised / classic 2 hit battleships.

I think I’ll try this, but I will still require that payment be made to repair them.

Check pages 4 and 5 of the rulebook.

@mockneywideboy:

Unless I’m misunderstanding the rules, it is impossible for your adversary to win provided you don’t build capital ships.

Victory requires 15 victory points. You get one per airfield and one per enemy capital ship sunk. There are only 9 airfields and each player begins with only 3 capital ships. Therefore, provided you don’t build more than two capital ships, you can’t lose!

By the same logic, you couldn’t win either! :mrgreen:

Better it’s not that way…

I have many of those. They are a rip off. Better to buy skytrex because its cheaper and the smokestacks don’t break off from those cheap plastic things from Panzerschiffe. Plus he does not make all the different types of ships so your resorting to buying both metal and plastic anyway to make a complete set…so you might as well save the waste and stick with metals.

I like the fact that both units can be on an island and not have to keep battling until someone owns it.

It tooks days to take Iwo Jima.

I agree as I have said before that you can’t judge anything unless you have played the game but I was just pointing out things that I thought seemed a little funny. Yes, if Artillery had 2 land power it would make bombers less useful unless you made bombers land power 3 like I did. Yes, things might be different prices with different stats but I am just speculating. I just thought artillery attacking ships seemed weird and having them have more power on land seemed more fitting. Maybe I am wrong. I don’t know how the game really plays because I won’t have it until Friday. I just thing some of the stats are questionable at first glance. Air Craft carriers with no anti-air? I don’t see how that could be. Anti-Air guns more effective at destroying fighters than opposing fighters? Battleship anti-air power just as effective as destroyers? Clearly Battleships had way more AA guns than Destroyers.
