This rule was actually changed from the way it was in Revised in order to prevent air units from getting an extra movement. In Revised, when a carrier was mobilized fighters were allowed to be moved from the territory containing the IC onto the carrier. Under that rule, a fighter could move from New South Wales and attack Japanese-held Western Australia, then fly back to New South Wales in noncombat movement, then be moved onto a new carrier in sea zone 62 in the Mobilize New Units phase, resulting in five spaces of movement.
Airbases & navy bases?

@Brain:
Are there going to be game pieces for air/naval bases like their are for factories?
Yes.
I remember reading this and getting all excited only to get the big let down when I found out that they were cardboard pieces. When I said “like their are for factories”, I meant the factories that were provided in all of the previous games, not the cardboard crap they sold to all us unknowing pre-paid customers.

I believe it was, “Take your paws off me you damn dirty ape.”

Ah, have not seen it in a while, nice catch.

I think that back when that film was made, it was pretty risque to say damn in a movie. It definitely would not have the same impact today.
Anyways to get back on subject. I am glad that FMG is making plastic air and navy base pieces.

It actually was “Take your stinking paws off me, you damned dirty ape!”

LOL, man I guess I sure opened a can of worms with that quote. I wonder how FMG are going to do the AB and NB molds, are they just going to use the icon on the cardboard chit, or are they actually going to do a mold that looks like a base?

Okay, it was actually “Take your stinking paws off me you damn dirty ape!”
Case closed.

My sculpt guy is working on the Airfield and Naval Base idea right now (While waiting for the factory to finish the other samples). We will go for something simple like the original AAA factories… instantly recognizable but not to complicated.
Anything is better for a token!
We will also include two types of Factories in the set. With new designs to match the AirField and Naval BaseThis was FMG’s latest info on this subject

The only thing I thought would be needed as far as replacing chits for plastic pieces would be the AA. The bases and factories I don’t mind having as chits, but the AA I would think has to be a piece because it can move.
