I have to…
FUS SA RAH!
I don’t remember that one, which one is it?
FUS RO DAH is the one usually employed…
Ah Crap I did it again.
Every time I miss spell Fus Ro Dah…… :-P
admiral what is the tank rule, thanks
In AAP they changed tank movement so the tanks can retreat one space if they only moved one space in combat movement. Try playing AAE with this rule - it makes a huge difference to Germany.
oops, better clarify. The tanks have to go back to the territory from whence they invaded if they choose to pull back.
i suppose that a tank couldnt retreat from an amphibious landing? Admiral, where did you find/see this rule? Thanks again.
nope, can’t get back on a transport.
It’s in the Pacific rules. I can’t quote you the page off the top of my head, but I know it’s in there.
Thanks, so The tank retreat rule is in the AAP Rules? Need to take a closer look then.
I’ve looked through all the references to tanks in the Pacific rules and I haven’t found any changes from the way it is in the other two games. Maybe you have a more recent edition, or something. Would infantry be unable to retreat then?

Bossk, I was looking in the AAP rules to see if a tank could move into a battle, fight and win, then withdraw back to the area it started from.
Infantry cant retreat from offshore landings
i was just wondering if the tanks could according to that “new tank rule” states above.

The way I interpret the admirals statement is that a tank can only retreat (I’m talking about a regular land battle) if it came from a territory bordering the one being attacked. I have found no proof of such a rule ever having existed in any of the games. I’m quite baffled at how a rule would work; would infantry be unable to retreat due to the use of their movement point to attack the territory? Perhaps the admiral has a more recent edition of the rules in which this is clarified.
Yeah, we’re all pretty happy about our victorys in the olypics, to understate the situation.

well I went back and checked again and must admit I was mistaken. The tanks can only pull back from a blitz, which I guess has always been the rule. My bad. Anyway, having played with that rule for a few games of the kind described above, I still say it makes for a very interesting match. Germany benefits, but so does Russia since Russia gets to use her tanks more often.
