@wittmann:
Afternoon Suprtramp.
Yes it can. Only Navy blocks naval movement(or a Strait of course!).
An island is a separate territory, yes.
With the exception of Subs and Transports, which cannot block enemy movement by themselves.
For some reason my brain just isn’t processing these 2 points, so forgive the noobish questions-
1) Aircraft- do air units count the sea zone around their island/home space against their total move allowance? For example, do Fighters in Japan count Sea Zone 6 as a separate space? What abouyt taking off from a smaller island like say New Britain?
Yes
No
Thanks!
The easiest way to count air movement is everytime you pass over a line on the board it counts as 1 movement point. So leaving an island cost 1 movement point to get into the sea zone.
