Once you’ve obtained the tech any one of your AA guns can fire a rocket 3 spaces away as an industrial bombing.
-
I’m not sure about this either. Are they a unit? Do they have to be used one a turn, or can you stockpile them? Do AA guns get to shoot at them?
The rules are not very clear on this. -
- Your AA gun by default gets to fire one shot (and only once) at a die roll of 1 for every enemy aircraft that enters the territory with the AA gun.
- You may not have more than one AA gun per territory
- You may move your AA gun just like an Infantry. You can place 1 AA gun on a transport (just like a tank)
- In the case that you get the Technology of Rockets, your AA gun acts as a Rocket launcher which may launch one rocket every turn at an enemy IC, at a maximum of 3 spaces from your rocket (AA gun). To determine the amount of IPC’s taken from your enemy roll one die.
note: Only 1 AA gun may fire a rocket per turn
-
Also if you don’t have a target within the three spaces…No rocket attack.
and there is no defence against rockets.
-
But can you get a rocket one turn and choose not to use it? (“save” it), then use it and another on a later date? In this way you coud launch several rockets on the same turn as a big offensive! I don’t know if the rules address this. Can you strat bomb a complex and hit it with a rocket on the same turn?
Thanx for any help. -
you cannot save “stockpile” rockets…one shot per turn. You can do a strategic bombing plus a rocket attack since the strategic bombing is a seperate move all together.

Ahh, well tahts too bad, as successful tech rolls cost about 30ipc on average.
I’d rather get Jet Power, Super Subs, Industrial Tech, LR aircraft, Heavy Bombers or oops I’ve already named everything elseTell me why and if you disagree.
