WW2 Aircraft Production vs Starting IPC Allotment

There is no cap on income (other than owning the whole board).  Simply place your NCM on the maximum value, then place another one on the chart to track the excess.  Sounds like you’re having fun…

I have attached a map of pickup and drop zones in the North Atlantic from a US perspective.  You have to remember that if your Eastern fleet is dropping into Archangel or Karelia from Z04 then you can’t get to the Baltic in one move.  You are stuck with going to Norway or WEU for a turn before moving to the Baltic.

The Baltic is generally preferable, though not always possible.

BTW - This is from Caspian Sub’s paper on US shipping (Paper #2).  http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/Caspian_Sub/

Your right switch, I should have been more clear…

@Magister:

Playing cards for randomization (keeping Ace-6) maybe 2 or 4 packs shuffled together. Each card is just as random as a d6 (without knowing the other). All together keep the average guaranteed. Maybe shuffle them all back when few of them (say <10) remain in the deck to prevent “knowing” the remainder is better/worse if the history so far has been worse/better.

It’s a lot easier to cheat with cards than dice.

Not that a pristine fellow like myself would know of course.  I, um, heard it from, um, TV, yeah, that’s it.

Sanya33, you may see the thing in the following way if the fighter belong the same nationality of the Aircraft Carrier.
At the start of that nation turn fighters from carrier are launched and start their “fly operations”. They are in the air upon the same sea zone in wich the carrier is. From that moment they can go in combat, the same in wich you, in case, send the AC or in another, on sea or on land. They can also stay in air in the sea zone until the end of non combat move.
At the very end of non combat move you must land your fighter somewhere. So they must reach a territory or a sea zone in wich they can legally land: a territory you own from the start of the turn or the same carrier from wich they start, or another carrier, even one of an allied nation.
Or, if they moved to fight a battle in a sea zone, without the carrier, the AC can move and they perform a “rendez vous” to land.
Summarizing the fighters and the AC act independently for all the turn and are not bound in doing the same movement.

Oh, okay, that makes a bit more sense.  I guess I haven’t looked at the new rules in a while, so that’s why I thought the way I did.

Hi

You should take a look in the Players Help section, theres a sticky post at the top that shows the initial setup for all the axis and allies games, or you could just point and click the big X
