Russia scrambled 1 fighter into SZ 115 from Leningrad, during that same turn Germany attacked and took Leningrad. What happens to the fighter in SZ 115?
I don’t see a flight path on the map that would be shortened by being able to fly over the Pripet Marshes, so I suppose that it’s not particularly relevant from an A&A perspective whether or not planes can fly over them.
Transports are automatically destroyed only when they are defenseless. This means that something is still shooting at them and they either have no protection or cannot retreat. Attacking transports are very seldom defenseless, as they can usually retreat. See the AAP40 FAQ for further information.
Peck is right. Transports may not unload after retreating.
a sea base is good for all ocean squares the territory is on. The one in Egypt somehow gives the extra move to ships in the Mediterranean and the Red Sea.
You have to start at the sea or air base though.
And don’t forget about scrambling and islands with air bases.
Yes, one sub can reach it and that one should be moved there. Combine it with a massive move to Carolines and from there you can pick Hawaii, most ANZAC territories, most of DEI, Phillipines, etc.
