@oysteilo:

Does this work? and it is worth the spending of a minor, carrier and transport?

yes, it might work somehow.
And No, it is miles away from being worth those 35 IPCs. Against a good Allies player that move brings Axis to the certain road of defeat.

Lots of good options for G1 builds, but here are my personal thoughts. Two bombers can help Sea Lion in the following way:
Clean up residual ships on G2 to prevent ship blocks Bomb London on G2, doing ~9 points of additional damage to the factory which reduces the number of infantry built on UK2. Join in on the London raid on G3, contributing 8 more attack power (equivalent of 2 transports loaded with infantry + art) for approximately the same purchase cost Attack the Russian response on G4-G5; bomb Russian factories along the front. Attack the US Navy trying to liberate UK on G4-G10ish
Additionally the two bombers are quite useful to bomb Moscow and support a Barbarosa if Sea Lion is not an option. It is not as optimal of a build of 6 art + 2 inf for marching into Russia, but still is very beneficial.

You do not need to clear a seazone before an amphibious assault if the seazone you are unloading into has only enemy transports or submarines. In the case of submarines you must have a warship (Carrier, Destroyer, Battleship or Cruiser) escorting the transport so you can IGNORE the submarine before the amphibious assault begins.

@suprise:

Page 18 of the Euro rule book and page 16 of the Pacific rule book
My interp. of this is 1 sub, 1 carr with 2 planes. the sub gets a hit what happens …… the carr is tipped and the planes are in the air if the sub does not fire a second shot then the planes need to land within their movement allowance. If you had 2 subs and they both hit then the carr would go down I would say the planes would get away because subs cant hit air units
Those two pages answer the Q’s for me

The movement allowance is only one when defending. The planes would need to land on an adjacent island, coastal tt, or friendly carrier w/room on board.

It has to all be done in the same countries turn, because that’s when you have to land your on your carrier.

Axisplaya,

Thanks for the feedback…I have a board set and will model your conclusions. In general, I play folks that understand efficiency and that for Russia, every defender is important. At the same time, blocking a northern approach effectively and possibly interfering with German NOs is like having more defenders, in a sense. I am not yet convinced it can be done but I will take your observations into account during planning. It would really be great to stomp Finland and Norway with Russia… Just don’t know of it is doable…

@leobarron2000:

Ergo, if my side won the sea battle and only my guys remain - I can enter it during the noncombat phase.

Yes, which is sometimes req’d such as the condition where you have a carrier in range that is obligated to provide a landing space for aircraft that survived if they are out of movement points.
