@wittmann:
Afternoon SeismicAssault.
You were both right to not remove the Transports.
The attacker has to have a unit left to hit the Transports and he did not.
Thanks! I was pretty sure that’s the way it went, but wanted to make sure.
If I move a carrier into combat, could I also move a fighter 4 spaces to get to that combat zone, and have it land on the carrier after the battle? Or is that an illegal move?
Yes, it’s legal, as long as the carrier has a landing spot that’s not spoken for. However, if you end up having to retreat your fighter will be lost, as it has no movement left.
