Noob alert- major noob question here.

Im looking for an experienced classic opponent, any variant will be fine.

IRL on triplea or pbem.

@Krieghund:

Welcome, yeomans!

Submarines can be attacked by air units in this game.  Of course, they will only get one shot before the sub(s) can withdraw.

You may be thinking of the rule that says subs can’t hit air units, or you may have read something concerning later versions of A&A in which air units are unable to hit subs without a friendly destroyer present.

The underlined portion was a totally new thing for us when we started playing 1942.2 (after playing the classic version for so long).  I can see the idea behind it though.  Helps preserve the sub a bit better from what we’ve seen.

thank you Krieghund,

once again you have answered my rules questions within a day of posting them.  you are awesome!

you would be correct scardog. lol i dont know why i put 3 fighters total. sorry about that misprint.

even with only 2 fighters, it is still pretty much a lock (barring crazy rolls)

and i made another misprint as well

instead of "combat:
battle 1, sea battle

2 battleships, 2 fighters, 1 sub, and 1 aircraft carrier    vs  1 fighter , 1 aircraft carrier, and a sub."

it should be 2 battleships, 1 bomber, i fighter*, 1 sub……

But keep in mind that a transport can pick up troops from different zones for unloading at a common departure point.  Sometimes this is overlooked. :wink:

Give the Russia restricted rule a twist.

Russia cannot attack Germany on their first turn, but can attack Japan instead.

Germany gets initiative over Russia which has initiative over Japan.

maybe you didn’t fully read his question, he asked if he was allowed to use the same fighters he used for naval combat, in land combat, durring the same turn. That isn’t allowed

Oh, I thought he meant continue against the subs. And yes, you are correct.

Is somebody out there making up rules as they play?
I saw Germany building an IC on AES on G1 (T1 in the post.) IMPOSSIBLE.
I saw Japan building 2 ICs on Australia(What a WASTE!) and it’s
ONLY 1 IC per TERRRITORY per the rules.
