One cycle pure air attack is already in AARHE. Modelling both Battle of Britain and London Blitz.
The only thing is “can only relocate or reinforce with excess units” applies to land unit but not air units. Air units are highly mobile. (I mean we let air units relocate 1 space and fight immediately.)
@Jennifer:
In the same vein, perhaps defender should have the option to retreat a portion of their naval assets?
Yep we are making a reinforcement rule. (its not in the latest uploaded draft yet)
land units can move 1 space, fight from 2nd cycle
air units can move 2 spaces, fight from 1st or 2nd cycle (1 or 2 spaces away)
Haven’t included naval units yet. There are some implications for Pacific war and Altantic war.

This is allowed under AARHE defender can declare retreats w/o penalty. The only time a penaly is served is under invasions, where defender converts any unit landing to infantry and re-embarks on tranny.
Well. Each excess attacking ARM capture a retreating INF on a roll of 1" for defender retreats.
This should apply to amphibious retreat too if we have amphibious retreat.
*should converted infantry subject to “excess ARM capturing INF”
*defender amphibious retreat? convert ARM/ART to INF too?
Theres some things to think about. We can’t switch on amphibious retreat too quickly.
