Revised BB newbie question

No.  All combat is simultaneous, therefore the combat in the front territory is still going on and you cannot blitz through.

@Arsonist:

If there is a Russian sub in SZ 12, can German Subs move through that zone from SZ 7 to SZ 18 to do combat?  If so, would it make a difference if I had a transport there or is it just a destroyer?

For some reason I just thought they could only move through zones like that if it was a NCM but I’m just double checking.  Some sneakysnake did that to me and I just didn’t know it was legal.

Guilty as charged. :)

That’s why I asked for clarification in another thread before doing it. :)

Couldn’t just let you invade MY African Continent!

I don’t have the CD … and I was referring to the ground rules ;) How do you think it’s best to teach them the ground rules? Just go unit-by-unit (which I think would be a waste of time, since it’s all on the reference card anyway)? I guess it’s obvious that I should start with the objective and order of play, and what to do in a turn … but do you think I should do anything more than that? Or, where should I go from there?

In basic A & A, you must unload all troops from a TR on the same territory, & once the troops are offloaded, the TRs movement ends. You CAN p/u troops from different locations (say load one INF in Phillipines, move TR to Okinawa, load another INF at Okinawa, move to Sea Of Japan SZ, unload both INF in Manchuria), but they all must be unloaded on the same territory (in the example, the 2 INF could be unloaded on either Manchuria or Japan Home Islands but not one on each).

In any case where a unit is involved in combat on Combat Phase, that unit’s move ends & it may not move again on Non-Combat Movement. The only exceptions are FTRs & BMRs which may fly out on Combat Move, be part of a battle in Combat, then fly back on Non-Combat Movement.

It’s possible I’m wrong about the landing of units on 2 land territories adjacent to the same body of water as the TR, but if I am, the rule is logical, & intuitive & I would recommend using it anyway…

If you guys are assuming that a round is roughly three months than almost any unit could be built in real time in that period of time. I have a book on Panzer Tanks and even the most powerful tank could field a full battalion in a little over three months. And when talking battleships, if it was a German pocket Battleship I believe it could be made in three months. You have to remember that most industries in these countries were geared almost completely to the war effort. :D :D

i open up tcp/udp 47624 on my firewall and people can join mine, but when other people try it, it doesn’t work for some reason

Thanks for the help.
