Do not apologize!

Movements that do not result in combat (your carrier) are SUPPOSED to be made in the noncombat move, however, virtually everyone is fine with noncombat moves in the combat move phase.

Noncombat moves in the combat move phase only, potentially, disadvantage the moving player because if you move something in the combat movement phase they are frozen since they can’t be moved again in the noncombat movement phase. This includes aircraft, because only aircraft can move in both phases, but that is only if they attack something.

I think it can be argued that you can’t make a noncom (without me checking the rulebook again to make sure) in the combat movement phase, however, I’ve never played someone who does.

But there IS one advantage to be gained by the moving player, and that is that for many players it’s easier to keep things straight by moving more or everything in the combat movement phase. But again, players don’t protest this, generally, because anything you move in the combat movement phase is locked in and you haven’t seen the dice results yet.

@Amon-Sul Yes scramble in SZ97 please. OOL depends on # of hits.
