It is a sea zone, so it may be flown over.

@Emperor:

I’m still a little confused.  If the carrier is attacked, and the carrier is damaged, are the planes prevented from landing back on the carrier and thus must find a safe landing zone with in 1 space of the sea zone or be destroyed?

yes

@Flying:

Doing this leaves Africa to the Allies doesn’t it? Can a lower income Italy do this? What do you do, stack up tanks and infantry for 4 rounds then attack Russian territories? I can definately see this working though seems like a more risky strategy than going for africa/middle east.

When I say using Germany to let Italy have a crack at Russia I mean the Caucus not the Russian capital.

You can do both.  You don’t need many italian tanks to open a hole in a wall of inf that is only 1 or 2 inf.

and, yes Germany can can opener the Caucasus for italy, but we find it’s better to have Germany (or even Japan) to take the caucasus over Italy.  They could make better use of the IC with 4 unit capability.

@OctavianNT:

So the ftr can establish a CAP or move and fight, but not both correct?

Correct.  A fighter may not take any other action on the turn that it establishes CAP.

@OctavianNT:

And landing from a CAP does not impede either of these options^?

Also correct.  A fighter may function normally on the turn that it lands from CAP.  Of course, if it plans on establishing CAP again on that same turn, it may not do anything else.

@Swantalon:

In the 2nd edition rules you must own both land territories to pass thru the suez canal. There really should be a tiny line on your map. This is not an optional rule. Land units may of course move across the canal without transports. This is do to the size of the canal and actually follows the real thing. The canal is very tiny even today, so it was imperative in world war 2 to hold both sides for safe passage. If the axis owns one side and the allirs the other, no one goes thru. And movement thru is considered one movement point.

Welcome to the forum, Swantalon!

What are you referring to?
