Kamakazes require the Allies to initiate combat in that zone. You get the option to deploy them at the end of an Allies combat move, before combat is resolved, and only then.

Just need a quick refresher with subs blocking a transports unloading and loading capability. I think it states that a sub can prevent a lone transport from loading or unloading during both noncombat and combat phases? My understanding is you need a ship present with the transport to negate this and can the ship be a sub? Thanks!

this only applies to trying to make a combat landing from an unescorted transport. during the combat movement phase undefended transports can ignore subs, as they also can in the noncombat phase. so loading of units in combat or noncombat and offloading in noncombat is unaffected by subs. the only thing you cannot do is make a landing from an unescorted transport if an enemy sub is in the sea zone.

Cool thanks! Does a sub count as a legal “escort” for the transport to unload?

Can USA take Denmark during combat and cross the canal during non combat on the same turn? I know UK can cross it as soon as his turn comes.

@Cow:

No. Page 9 of the rule book says:
If your side (but not necessarily your power) controlled a canal or narrow strait at the start of your turn, you may move sea units through it (you can’t use it in the same turn that you capture it).
If the USA took Denmark during combat, it was Axis-controlled at the start of the USA’s turn, so it can’t be crossed during non-combat.

Can you move into Japan seazone with fighters from carriers in your combat phase, saying you would land the fighters there when you move in with the carriers in your non combat phase? This would negate the Kamikaze token tremendously…

Yup. Common tactic is to send aircraft with destroyers and submarines for meat shields specifically to negate the kamikaze attack. Otherwise, you run the risk of having carriers get damaged from Kamikaze runs and having planes splash into the ocean.

scrambling fighters is in response to an actual combat not a combat movement correct? Example: transport leaves from sz110 picks up Inf on Denmark and returns to 110 to amphib Normandy. Fighters from West Germany cannot scramble to prevent the Denmark pickup?
-
Right - you can’t scramble against a load, only an unload that is a combat move (an amphibious assault)

In the past before the second edition had come out people had made homemade IPC and NO’s charts.
Can someone show me where to find an updated chart for the new NO’s and IPC for Global 1940?
Thanks

USA amphibious assaults an island with a enemy transport in the seazone.
USA is attacking with a fighter a cruiser and a transport with 2 infantry.
There are no enemy ships other than 1 Japanese transport.Can USA attack the transport with the fighter and bombard with the cruiser?
Or does it have to let the transport live in order to bombard?
Or does the transport prevent the bombard? -

Can China declare war? (on Germany or Italy)
Or can German/Italian units enter Axis territories in China, thereby making those territories completely immune to Chinese attack while the G/I units are there (assuming G/I never declared war on China)?
-
China can declare war on a European Axis power if one of those powers either declares war on China or moves units into a territory into which Chinese units are allowed to move.

Oh! Glad I asked, thanks - so fast

USA turn 3, Japan just declared war on UK and ANZAC.
USA declares war on Japan and attacks Japanese transports in SZ19 (Off Okinawa) with a single bomber from Hawaii.Would there be any reason that USA would not be allowed to land said bomber in Russian controlled Amur?
I ask because tripleA refuses the move to Amur, but not the attack on the SZ.
Pretty sure its just a bug, but want to make sure.
