Question regarding Lend lease act

sorry for your seasoned body! But indeed you need to role exactly the right number. This also makes the game fair! Other wise you would have a 100% chance to get jet fighters?

Welcome, jimboslimbo!

To be clear, subs always fire in Opening Fire, before other units.  The presence or absence of an enemy destroyer simply determines when subs’ casualties are removed.  In your example, there is no attacking destroyer, so the casualties from the subs are removed immediately and will not get a chance to fire.  If there had been an attacking destroyer, the subs’ casualties would get to return fire.  Note that a sub hit by another sub will always fire, as both are firing simultaneously in Opening Fire.

In this game you don’t need destroyers in order to hit subs with air units.  The fighters will get one round of fire before the subs can submerge.  An attacking destroyer would simply keep the subs from submerging (forcing them to endure additional rounds of attacks) until the destroyer was sunk.

@LT04:

Hi Guys long time no type.  It’s been a wile since I have played this one so I’m knocking out the cobwebs.  You will also have to forgive me since I don’t have the board in front of me.

Let’s say I’m Germany and this is a few turns into the game.  I have my Med. transport and battleship in that inlet by the Caucuses.

The UK has their Destroyer in the SZ adjacent to Italy.  I have my battleship and some fighters based in Italy take out the UK Destroyer.

(Here’s my question)  Can I have my transport pick up troops in the Balkans or Caucuses and land them in North Africa (Germany controlled of course) where the sea battle just took place?

Thanks,

LT

Yes, in non-combat.

@Bean:

:-) Feel free to ask questions and discuss, no matter how small.

Yea, cause this entire site is designed to discuss the game!  We don’t know everything, but we can field the majority of questions.  If you wanna know what the designer was thinking, well, you’ll have to ask him. grin

Spend like crazy!

Two exceptions:

1.  Sometimes, you need to go pure defense with Russsia.  When doing so, if you have 17 IPC, you spend 15 to get 5 infantry, and save 2 IPC.  Next turn, with another 17 IPC income, you will have 19 IPC, allowing you to get 6 infantry.

2.  Sometimes, you want to be able to switch fronts with the US.  So you don’t spend a lot first turn, then second turn, you commit to either Atlantic or Pacific.  (If you do spend in the Atlantic on US1, it takes TWO turns to sail to the Pacific, and vice versa).

In general, it is not a good idea to save.

UNLESS UR JESUS!

Well that all depends on what you guys are offering before I toss JC back into the pot.

Exactly the only option in your situation would be to let the territory be taken by Germany and then land there with US boys again.

Yes.
