Subs in battle

@wicked_caitiff:

…
Are planes allowed to attack alone and independently, …

Yes, as long as every plane has a valid landing spot.

Thanks. I was not sure the general rule apply in this specific case.

I mainly made these because I need  larger things to see and especially reminders what the national bonuses are for objectives. We always have a new player joining and he does not quite remember what is required to get the bonus.

On the battle board I added information about surprise attacks and anti aircraft as people forget to roll these first, Kamikaze information, and how to do strategic bombing runs.

Yes, though such a movement would generally be made during noncombat movement.

The transport must be accompanied by a surface warship for its entire move.

right, so he can destroy the xport, or bombard, but not both.

@Gravy:

Okay, don’t have the rules in front of me so I  have another question.  US attacks a Jap  fleet with only subs.  Since the Jap fleet has a destroyer and the US doesn’t, do the Japanese subs in her fleet get a first strike attack and at what die roll. Totally confused with this rule.

My reading of the rules is that yes, the Japanese subs get first strike as the US doesn’t not have ASW provided by a destroyer.  Subs roll at a 1 for defense.  Roll for your sub stack, US removes hits (rolls of 1) from the board immediately.  Then US can roll for his remaining subs at 2 (for attack).

On Jan 6th I posted pics of battle boards I created along with pics of planes, airbases and naval bases.  I was e-mailed by a few people requesting a copy of the battle boards, so here they are.  You can just click on them, save them to a thumb drive, take it to a photo shop place (like Wally-World) and print in a 8 x 10.  These will probably not be favored by experienced players.  However, for novice players they are separated in to land or sea battles, completely graphic and not only used as battle boards but they also double as reference cards.  I have included notes on anything to do with battling, i.e. strategic bombing, sub hits on only transports in a SZ, AA guns, and Kamikazes.  Not so much to be used in battles, but quick reference.  I think I covered everything involved in battles, if someone see something I forgot please let me know……thanx…
