Question about reteat naval units

@SuperMasterMind Afternoon. You have understood correctly.
Enjoy your game.
Be aware, however, any other Russian territories remain Russian. An ally of Russia cannot collect their income, until either Japan or Germany first capture them. Then they are fair game for her allies. All territories would revert to Russia, once Moscow is liberated.

Hey MGustav - welcome to the forum.

I think you are talking about a string of static transports allowing land units to jump from one to the next?

In which case - that is not how it works. In a single turn a nation can load land units on to a transport. The transport can move up 2 sea zones. Then the land units can disembark into a coastal territory.

The tanks having two moves is therefore irrelevant. The transport has two moves which it can use for land units of any type regardless of the movement value of each land unit type.

Of course if the transport does not need to move for a land unit to load and unload, for example from the UK to Western Europe, you have a static transport effecting a “bridge”.

Otherwise you might have transport(s) at each end of a sea journey moving backwards and forwards to deliver a constant stream of reinforcements.

You can put units out in any “eligible spaces you have controlled since the start of your turn.” (Rules P 22) It doesn’t matter what original plans you had for the carrier.

On any combat round, when there is no destroyer, each Sub get a surprise strike.

Assuming conditions are met for a Surprise Strike:
On any hit by Sub, remove immediatly an opponent unit without retaliation (except for enemy’s Sub which can roll in the same phase when their is no Destroyer on the opposing side).
All the surviving units can roll to hit the Subs, except for planes (which cannot hit when there is no Destroyer, neither can be hit by Subs).

In your example, if the Sub miss, then Cruiser can roll. If it gets a hit, then the battle is over.
If neither Sub or Cruiser get a hit, Sub can have another surprise roll if it stay for another combat round.

If Sub roll and has a hit, then the Cruiser cannot roll.
If Sub miss, Cruiser can roll.
Getting a hit then Sub is sunk, it is over.
Still a miss, it goes for another combat round if the attacker doesn’t retreat or the Sub doesn’t submerge.

And it start all over again…

Welcome, tryon!

From the image you referenced, you’re playing the 1st Edition, the forum for which can be found here.  OutlawUnForgiven’s comments about air unit suicide missions apply to both editions.

I have heard that Phillipines IC is good too, I haven´t tried it yet though.

UK sending fighters to Caucasus seemed quite helpful to me!

Yes, twice the IPC value is correct. The other sentence is trying to say although an IC can’t be destroyed, it can be rendered useless by taking as many hits or more as the IPC value or the territory.
