The confusion seems to be in you’re holding back naval ships for naval bombardment. The advantage about scrambling planes is that it forces the attacker to commit all their naval ships regardless if they want to or not. That’s why it is sometimes wise to scramble in a losing battle if the enemy is relying on bombardment for victory. The easiest situation would be when Japan invades the Philippine islands. If Japan was so aggressive that all they brought was two infantry with two cruisers as example. I would scramble the fighter in that situation because while I will lose the sea battle, if you choose to invade the island after the battle, you’re doing it without naval support which gives my defending infantry a better chance at winning.
Can air units fly over strict neutrals
-
If strict neutral has not been attacked, can air units fly over it in combat or non-combat turn? I am referring to flying an Italian bomber over Spain.
Thanks… -
You cant enter them in any manner, unless your attacking them which is in the combat move.
Of course if you attacked them, you can fly over since you are already at war.

@Imperious-Leader Thanks Imperious

If you’re aircraft flies over the neutral, you just agreed to declare war on that nations and you’re now in play with whatever rule you just activated.
-
@Caesar-Seriona War is never declared on neutral territories. They are simply attacked.
-
@Panther There is no rule that forbids you for doing something stupid like I declare war on Switzerland and then take no action against the state.
-
@Caesar-Seriona There is no rule that forbids to attack Switzerland, sure.
But both rulebooks explicitly state: “Unlike powers, war is never declared on neutral territories - they are simply attacked.”
That was what I pointed out.
