I’d like to add to this. Does a sub also count as an escort? I always assumed an escort had to be a surface warship. But if that’s not the case, then I can utilize this in the future.
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.
You’re right. Partial retreats are not allowed. The only exception is in amphibious assaults, where air units and land units that arrived by land may retreat, leaving the amphibious units to fight on alone.
Italy has a navy in zone 110 uncontested, on Germanys turn they bring in transports and ships for an amphib on UK in same sea zone as Italian fleet. Does the Italian fleet defend against the scramble from UK?
No. The scrambling is defense against Germany’s attack. So like all other battles, friendly units in the seazone are not included. On offense, only one power is involved. On defense, multiple powers are involved.
Does Sea Zone 110 include the English Channel? I assume it does. However, it appears the English Channel could be considered sparate from Zone 110 - it certainly would give consideration to the Strait of Dover as a dividing line between the North Sea (zones 110,11 & 112) and the English Channel.
Yes. SZ110 connects SZ104, 105 & 109 to 111 & 112. There is no seperate English Channel Seazone. The only Seazone that is currently unmarked (and should be numbered) is the Caspian Sea.
