Industrial Technology Question

In all current forms of the game since AA Anniversary edition, subs (and transports) can not and do not ever block movement.  So if in your example you can attack a stack of subs with a stack of destroyers and other units are free to proceed through to another seazone, even though there will be combat in that seazone (destroyer on sub).

Welcome to the A+A boards, BigKahuna!

Hoping that you have your answers already, but here goes:

1.  Strategic bombing raids (SBRs) ONLY attack the industrial complex of a territory, not the units therein.  If your game is playing without fighter escorts (optional rule decided by players ahead of time), the defender gets to roll his AA gun for each bomber SBRing the territory (killing a bomber for each 1 rolled), and that’s it.  If you’re playing with fighter escorts, check the errata to see how many shots the defender gets for the fighter(s) stationed ONLY in the industrial complex’s territory.  Surviving fighters don’t get to bomb the factory.  Other than that, the other units in the territory don’t get to participate.

2.  Usually that’s the case with this game, getting enough people to actually play a 5 person game.  Team up, of course!  Usually UK and Russia go well with the same person, sometimes I see UK and the USA by the same person.  If only two people, obviously Axis and Allied teams.

3.  Shoot, just use a pad and paper, but probably 30 of each should be more than enough.  IPCs usually in the range of 50-60 per side at their highest.

enemy owned, but no unit present. 8-)

@Arsonist:

If there is a Russian sub in SZ 12, can German Subs move through that zone from SZ 7 to SZ 18 to do combat?  If so, would it make a difference if I had a transport there or is it just a destroyer?

For some reason I just thought they could only move through zones like that if it was a NCM but I’m just double checking.  Some sneakysnake did that to me and I just didn’t know it was legal.

Guilty as charged. :)

That’s why I asked for clarification in another thread before doing it. :)

Couldn’t just let you invade MY African Continent!

There’s a small empty hollow in the middle of the plastic tray that says Pacific, that were I usually store the Chinese. The Chinese board setup is on the American reference card.

Thanks for the help.

Agreed. The attack had better be supported well enough to avoid that scenario…

Just to clarify the naval/land situation…

Land units cannot attack naval units at all.
Naval units can ONLY attack when its considered an “amphibious assault”, and even then, its ONLY the battleships that may attack with just ONE shot for every battleship taking place in the assault.
An amphibious assault takes place by having one of your transports carry at least one land unit to the desired territory along with any battleships you’d like to take part in the assault.

**There are many little rules that greatly effect an outcome of a game…I strongly suggest reading over the ENTIRE manual .

Way to say it, MD!
