Destroyer question: Can they carry infantry in AAP40?

tnx

@wittmann:

No YG. There are no Naval or Air Base changes from First to Second.

Thanks.

@Krieghund:

@moralecheck:

The UK not only can’t land it’s units, but it has to endure one round of defensive fire from the scrambled unit(s) before it can retreat.  Any units on those transports are lost.

Not so.  Since it’s not the transport’s turn, it is not in the battle and can’t move.  The scrambled fighter simply prevents the amphibious landing without inflicting any casualties.

@moralecheck:

KH explained: A fighter can scramble to join a battle or against an amphibious assault.  It cannot scramble against ships that are just putting around its waters though.  This raises a new question, so I hope Krieghund is reading:  If I send transports (only), or even a fleet with warships to assault an island with scramblable (I made up a word!!) units, can I send a fighter into the waters with it, even though that is not really a combat move (but it will be if my opponent scrambles)?

Yes.  Just the chance of combat is enough to justify the move.

UK units on a US transport. Missed that.  My bad.

Yes

@Gharen:

I think if your ship ends up in an enemy convoy zone and survives to their collect income phase it automatically deducts from their total, so that being said I believe you can attack to an enemy sea zone assuming you kill something or noncombat to one.  The convoy raiding takes place on the opponents collect income phase so its entirely different from your combat.

right!

The UK and ANZAC are free to move any units into Dutch territories still under Dutch control at any time, but they may only take control of them with land units.  The US is free to move any units into Dutch territories still under Dutch control only if it is at war, and it may never take control of them.  Any power may attack Japanese-controlled Dutch territories and take control of them, as long as that power is at war with Japan.

Alright then,
Thanks WB

Nice job on the reviews dj.
