Generally speaking powers defend together. However in G40 there are powers that start off neutral (Russia and USA) or not at war with each other (like Japan and UK/France). You could have a case at sea when you attack a sz with units from multiple powers, and can ignore the units that belong to a power that you aren’t yet at war with.
Scramble question. *important *
-
The UK has Egypt with an air base and 3 fighters. If Italy moves a warship into sz 98 (adjacent ), aND then GermanyGermanys following turn they move transports into the zone for an assault, can the fighters scramble even though I own the sz?
-
Absolutely. And the Italians cannot join in, as the Germans are the aggressors.
Owning the SZ is not relevant. -
wittmann is right, the Italians can’t participate in the German attack so they are bystanders. By rule the German transport should endure one round of combat, then it can retreat if still alive (unless you are playing a friendly game and allow the German player to rethink his move based on the new info).
