Land planes on carrier in contested sea zone?

Thanks! I thought that’s how it should be. You are correct, the German player did not hold Algeria

thank you for your answers, this helps alot

Hobbes is correct.  The destroyer must be in the battle, not just in the sea zone.

@DynamiteChicken:

First of all I was wondering if bombers can go on airship carriers

I’d like big fat silverish Zepplins on the game and if there was a naval ship big enough to carry dirigibles it sure would have space for puny bombers, but alas no, all we have is aircraft, not airship carriers :wink:

Ah yes, that was exactly the conversation I was thinking of.  You are quite right, I was thinking of a defending air unit.  In combat the air units would retreat during the non-combat movement phase and of course not have movements allowed and would crash.

That CAP rule in good old Pacific always remained a mystery to me. As far as I remember you can only use airplanes that didn’t take part in any combat. Now who would let any airplane sitting around doing nothing in combat ?  Japan not using airplanes in her attacks ?  That’s why I never used CAP, not once.

@Krieghund:

No, it doesn’t.

Thanks Krieghund.

Thanks for the welcome, and thanks for the reply!  I’m still getting used to this new version… (old MB original player)
