Rule question soviet battleship

try “the war game” many rules in this axa inspired global warfare game adapt to these concerns, for example, one ship cannot block a fleet, a fleet attack can propose up to 3 battles in path each of which are resolved in turn if sucessful.  there are many more such as nation specific pricing and units, a more varied economic structure, and so forth.  not by any means a shorter or simpler version of axa global however

2. Are there any strategy value for the airport on Iceland?

Here are a couple wikipedia articles:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iceland_during_World_War_II
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iceland_Base_Command

Without long rang aircraft tech, American fighters can’t reach England in one turn.  Iceland serves as a possible way-point, especially if the Allies are having difficulty regaining control of the Northest Atlantic.

Incidentally, I think I figured out why pre-war US is allowed to venture warships into SZ 102 for “patrols”: fighters on an acft carrier there can attack Gibraltar or Morocco on Turn 4.

Also, in the event of a successful Sealion G3(successful from the German point of view), planes on patrol in z102 and bombers from the airbase in Eastern USA can hit the German fleet in z109 and z110. This is why you always activate Eire on UK1 - If Germany wants to take away American bomber landing spots, it has to make the attack on London light by at least 2 transports, increasing London’s survivability.

Of course, if you didn’t buy a carrier US1 and park it with planes in z102 on US2, and if you didn’t buy bombers (and park them in EUSA on US2), well… then you had better not lose London!! :lol:

They have copies.

Good idea Mellemhend.

It is a sea zone, so it may be flown over.

Arminius Germanicus is correct.  Pro-Allies neutral is still neutral.

Krieghund,

The rules say:

The original controller of the capital is still in the game but can’t collect income from any territories he or she still controls and can’t buy new units.

It doesn’t mention bonus $.  Can bonus $ still be collected?

Calvinhobbesliker is correct.

@WILD:

Whats the ruling on your other NB/AB if you lose your capital. I see you noted can’t repair your own ships (skip that phase), but will your other NB’s still repair your allies ships? Also do you and your allies still get the +1 movement from your other AB & NB, if you have lost your capital.

My thought is that your AB/NB in other tt are still 100% functional as long as they are not damaged (you won’t be able to fix them). They still get +1 as far as movement (for all powers on your side), and can still repair allied ships (yours can’t be repaired as noted above),

Your thought is correct.
