Ah. I hadn’t understood that subtlety. It’s a bit like assuming that, as an attacker, I’m going to win - so, retreat isn’t an option. Thanks a lot for your help.
Repairing a Battleship?
-
Hi there,
As i am finishing reviewing the rules for my first game of Anniversary Edition i just to make sure of something.I understand that in anniversary edition there is no naval base to go to in order to repair as in global.
When the rule says “If a battleship survives a combat having taken one hit, return it upright to the game board.”
Does “returning upright” means the ship is somehow repaired after combat?In other words can we ever repair a damaged battleship at all in this edition?
-
A damaged battleship indeed is repaired by returning it upright to the game board.

Thanks a lot Panther, as usual! -
@Soviet-Steamroller The Battleship is repaired after surviving combat. It can be attacked in subsequent turns and still take two hits to sink.

@Wittmann
Awesome… auto-repair for surviving battleships! Wish that Carriers would have the same treatment in Anniversary edition. -
@Soviet-Steamroller I know what you mean. Having a huge fleet and then losing to a few subs is very depressing.

Having subs (low cost) in your own fleet can shield your carriers. Just have at least one DD in that mix so attacking subs don’t get the opening fire capability.

@axis_roll Ok, I guess it was bad planning by having my aircraft carrier fleet without proper protection of a destroyer. I lost 5 fighters after that battle. Thanks for the tip!

That is brutal! I will have to remember to protect my fleets like this. I have built some large fleets mostly with aircraft carriers and fighters and I now realize how vulnerable they were…
