Krieghund, convoy question

You can buy a vinyl printout of the board from office max or staples, no idea how it works but I know its been done. Check out the axis and allies Facebook group and ask a question there, someone will definitely get back to you.

@barnee said in Bridging question:

Panther probably give you a detailed answer

Only the relevant part from the rulebook (Europe 1940.2 page 21) ;-)

Transporting Multinational Forces: Transports
belonging to a friendly power can load and offload
your land units, as long as both powers are at war.

This is a three-step process:

You load your land units aboard the friendly
transport on your turn. The transport’s owner moves it (or not) on
that owner’s turn. You offload your land units on your next turn.

Hi alecug,

Hey, we were all new once.  ;)

A list of acronyms that are thrown around this site quite a bit can be found here:

I hope you find that info useful, and welcome!

Thanks for your answers they both helped!

Yes, I was referring to leaving from an island.

@elevenjerk:

Cool.  Makes sense but I think (not that it means much) that planes on a carrier don’t defend in the air unless there is something to defend against.  I’m new here but I’ve been reading for well over a year and I appreciate all the info given!  Thanks!

If it helps justify it, imagine that they’re flying CAP, and were already in the air when the subs struck.  The only time aircraft aren’t considered “in the air” is when attacking with a carrier that has a friendly plane.  In all other circumstances, the airplanes are independent of the carrier (and already in the air).  Not just when attacked, but even before they were attacked.  Hence, Combat Air Patrol.

EXCEPT in the 2nd edition board, the western territories of Canada have been merged together, and have a UK roundel.

Apparently M Night Shyamalan helped out with that twist.

The carrier fires back as long as it isn’t sunk.

I would like to play a game with at least 4 people but most of my friends that played Spring 1942 did not move on to Global.  They found it to be too time consuming and complicated.  I myself love the game and I am thinking of trying out playing a forum game at some point soon.
