AA 1941 question: When moving infantry into a hostile territory during …

Hi Grumphry.
No. If a Sub’s target survives, it can always retaliate.
Submerging is instead of attacking or defending. A Sub cannot attack and submerge in he same round.
It is always worth attacking a lone Carrier with Fighters on board, if the Fighters do not have a safe place to land, as they will go down with the Carrier. The lesson is: always keep a Destroyer with your fleet, if the enemy has a Sub in range.

Correct:

@rulebook:

A fighter based on a defending carrier must land on the same carrier if possible after the battle. If that carrier is destroyed in
combat, the fighter must try to land elsewhere. It must land on a different friendly carrier in the same sea zone, move 1 space
to a friendly territory, island, or aircraft carrier, or be destroyed. This movement occurs during the Noncombat Move phase,
before the acting player makes any noncombat moves. Carrier-based fighters are always considered to be defending in the air,
even if only submarines are attacking.

Thnx !! much appriciated :)

Hi Forum,

Here is a video of a timelapse I have created on youtube of the set up of AnA 1941. Enjoy!

you are correct sir.  If the British can manage to take North Africa it would serve as a better station for the American planes since they both could attack southern and Western europe if need be.

That’s what I thought, but I was hoping I was wrong so I could pick up 3 IPCs in one move.

Thanks!

Pfft what? If Russia is always falling on turn 3 you might just need to rework your strategy (don’t let the AI play as Russia). I’ve had games where Russia not only survived by thrived, pushing Germany back to the gates or Berlin. It’s all about knowing the ground, the battles to fight and those not to fight. Also, send more fighters from UK :D

yeah invade Norway with your 3 infantry in Karelia and then land your spitfires from England there lol. But i do find that i have to abandon Caucus, i’ve found a good strat is too attack the Ukraine and west Russia, then Germany has to send more troops to the eastern Front. And you should be planning an invasion of Europe to thin the Germans. Also if you have a few fighters and a bomber in Finland/Norway then you can directly bomb Germany.
