Thank you. Had not seen that and was unhappy to contradict Kriegkund, but could not see any difference with what I had said. Now I realise without a japanese DOW against UK/Anzac a Japanese player could have moved through an occupied sea hex on its way to a Dutch territory. Now it cannot. Though, of course, my way and knowing I was provoking war with UK/Anzac, I would have attacked them too and, therefore, not moved illegally through a sea zone . You have to love Japan.
Some questions
-
1. Say a player moves 12 fighters from a land base without a port four spaces to attack enemy ships, but he can only get 1 carrier to that sea zone for landing and there is no friendly island. Can the player move all 12 fighters or just 2?
2.Under strat bombing - can fighters escort from a carrier? The rules specify territory.
3. Can US get NO for Okinawa, Iwo if UK or ANZAC take control? -

Thanks for the quick reply. I think the rules should be errated as follows:
Page 14 under Strategic Bombing, 2nd paragraph,2nd sentence should read. Escort fighters can escort and protect the bombers and they can originate from any territory and carrier.Also, Page 12 under Air Units 2nd para, last sentence should read:
Fighters or tactical bombers can move their full four spaces to attack in a sea zone instead of saving movement, but only if carriers with sufficient basing capacity for all attacking planes could be there for them to land on by the conclusion of the Mobilization phase.
I my game Japan wants to attack the US feet in the Line Islands on j2 with 15 fighters and TB but can get only 1 carrier there to land on. So only 2 can move there and attack. -
