2 Stupid Rules Questions

@pfc_pander:

… I though you might be able to move your fighter during non-com to the sea zone that the carrier will be built in but wasn’t sure if that’s allowed.

…

1942 2nd edition and/or anniversary

It is allowed in both games.

Thank you good sir.

Subs from both sides shoot in “opening fire.” There is an “opening fire step” every round. Unless an opposing DES is present, sub hits (only can hit naval units) in opening fire don’t get to shoot back. Subs get a “free” shot every round.

Sometimes you only have one unit to move to somewhere else SSG Rock.

If you have 10 ARM and want to transport them all on the same turn you will require 10 transports. You may load those 10 TRN with 10 INF as well but as mentioned you are not required to do so.

Transports are a little confusing. you just need to remember that loading AND/OR unloading uses all of the units movement points. This means that you can both load and unload a unit on your turn, or you can load a unit (granted it hasn’t been moved already this turn) and leave it on the transport, or you can unload a unit that is already on a transport; in this last case you would be unable to move it afterwards similarly to rules regarding movement before loading. I’m not sure if I helped clarify, but I hope this benefits you.

American, first lanuage! :)

The German subs cannot submerge before combat has begun. The subs must endure one round of attack and then those that remain have to option of defending or submerging.

You know what? I found the 3rd edition rules for the A&A CD-ROM game. It answers my question. It seems only defending subs can submerge. And, if they surface to find enemy naval units, they must fight on your next turn…for at least one round of firing. So, I finally understand. Submerging is meant for defending against air attacks! Thanks anyway!
