[Private-Panic]

I left the J fleet there thinking your ANZAC fighters on US ACs could not participate in any US attack. Is that correct?

So what happens if the US AC’s did attack? Do the ANZAC fighters stay where they are w/out an AC until the ANZAC go?

[Witt]

They can’t attack with the Americans, no. They are cargo and would go down with the ship. I could not attack and lose them. But if I moved the Carrier, I would give ghe FTs longer range.
Is that clear?

I had to crash my 2 surviving US Fts into the sea, as the DD attack on your SZ20 fleet failed, so the Carrier could not get to SZ19 to pick them up. Unlucky, I know! (Stupid rule.)
I was lucky in my attacks and I am sure you can see the Australians will take Indo now.
Excuse the edits from India, but I realised it was safe and the west and East of it weren’t.
I sincerely hope you feel a little better.

I understand that the theoretical ability of the AC to get to the fighters allows them to deploy there. But I don’t understand why your DD attacked sz20?

@wittmann:

They can’t attack with the Americans, no. They are cargo and would go down with the ship. I could not attack and lose them. But if I moved the Carrier, I would give ghe FTs longer range.
Is that clear?

So do the ANZAC fighters move with the US AC or stay behind? Must be the former I guess. They just don’t participate in the resulting battle.

Moving the AC gives the ANZAC fighters longer range? Eh?

[Witt]

The AI allowed me to reach SZ6 and it should not have.  Yet. I had not shown a path to SZ below it. MY Air units could not reach a landing zone otherwise. They would have crashed intio the sea, regardless, and that would have been a cheat. Needed to show that a Carrier could reach.

Finally understood the need for you to attack with your DD in order to create a theoretical possibility of AC movement following others’ rules checks on other boards, which I then tried to get my head round.

Still lots and lots to learn!
