Regarding SZ 110, I got hosed one time on a UK scramble. Usually as Germany, I send 3 fighters, 3 Stukas, 1 bombers and sometimes 1 sub to SZ 110. Our UK player had gotten in the habit of not scrambling in order to save the RAF for future action.
Well, this one game I made the mistake of just assuming UK would not scramble. I sent 2 fighters, 2 Stukas and 1 bomber to SZ 110. The other fighter and Stuka I sent to kill the French fleet in SZ 93. Well, UK taught me a lesson. They scrambled and wiped out my planes. I didn’t even kill all the ships in the channel.
Never made that mistake again.

Although I lurk and rarely post, I have to comment here…
According to my wife, being female not only gives her the right to be wrong but also automatically makes any “wrong” answer correct, thereby also making any male answers wrong.

btw Jenn and I have been PM’g, and we’ve always been on friendly terms, in case anyone’s wondering

@Cmdr:
As the only female on the boards, I reserve the right to not pick up a rule book or a print out of a rule book for every post I make.
Huh? Are you saying that being female gives you the right to be wrong? :wink:
Yes.
You don’t date much or are not married, are you? You should know this rule, it should be tattooed on the inside of your eyelids. This is the Platinum Rule, the Golden Rule being do unto others…yadda yadda.

Can you scramble 3 fighters to SZ 97 and to SZ 95 in the same round from the same airbase?
That is, scrambling a total of 6 fighters in one round.

No. each airbase can only scramble 3 fighters total on any given round. Each of those three can be tasked to different seazones though, so 1 & 1 & 1 or 1 & 2 etc etc etc.

Can ANZAC, for example, use an UK-Airbase built on English Territory in it’s turn?
-
Yes.
-
Does it need to be under UK-Control for one full ROUND to give ANZAC the Movement-Advantage?
-
No, just since the beginning of the turn.
-
Is this correct?
-
a transport my load AND unload in friendly territory during NCM.
-
no further movement of these deployed units is allowed from there this turn (tanks / mech. inf.)
-
a transport my load AND unload in hostile territory during CM (amphibious assault).
-
no blitzing from there.
I’m just not fully sure about that.
Thanks and greetings from Munich. -
-
Yes, that’s true, as long as the transports and land units belong to the same power.
-
Thank you Krieghund for patiently answering my questions!
Another one, we are not fully sure where AA-Guns can be built (Alpha +2):
Can AA-Guns be build in any Territory under my control since the beginning of my turn, even without a factory being there?
-
No. AA Guns are built at factories.
Factories, Naval Bases and Air Bases are the only structures that can be built in territories without Factories in them.

That is, scrambling a total of 6 fighters in one round.
If by round you mean one enemy turn, then no. You of coarse can scramble up to 3 air units in each of your enemies turns through out 1 round of play.
You can build an AB in N Italy that will allow you to scramble up to 6 ftrs to these sz’s at any given time.
My question is for as many games that you have played, how can you not know this about Alpha?
Brain Fart, oh yea as a female it must be a “Brain Toot”

I have yet to have the means and opportunity to scramble 3 Fighters in SZ 95 and 3 more Fighters in SZ 97. Have you?
-
No, but why would you need to split up into two sz’s? I have seen Italy build an AB in N Italy in later rounds to protect its fleet in sz 95 or 97 w/6 planes (some were German). In that game the UK pulled back to the Red sea to consolidate for a later return. Because the UK pulled back, Italy got much of Africa so its income was on the rise. Italy needed the extra protection for when both UK/US entered the Med. US/UK moving back to back can really be a bitch! Its normally a loosing proposition for the Italians to try to keep up in an arms race, but it did take a lot of fire power to take Italy down.
-
It’s a hypothetical question, I highly doubt it will ever come into play. I was just curious to see if the scramble rules allowed for 3 aircraft per battle or 3 aircraft per airbase.
