• If, however, you have radar with one of your powers, you can always use the best AA gun (any available radar units) in the territory to defend.


  • well, why is it that only 1 aa gun can defend in a battle?

    Does a submarine’s surprise strike occur every combat round or only the first?

    Every round that there are no enemy destroyers present in the combat.

    Yes

    Only if the friendly neutral territory is the second territory moved into, as a unit must stop when it enters a friendly neutral territory.

    Kevin.

    Can you tell me who Larry deems qualified to do rule clarifications. Our group plays strictly by the book and we only want answers from larry’s people. No offense to anyone.

    Kevin.

    Can you tell me who Larry deems qualified to do rule clarifications. Our group plays strictly by the book and we only want answers from larry’s people. No offense to anyone.

    Trisdin, Kevin is always the bottom line.  If anyone answers a question on here incorrectly, or incompletely Kevin always fixes it.

    If a question is answered correctly and completely, then Kevin stays silent.  Silence is consent.  So if you ask a question and it gets answered by some yehu like me, if Kevin doesn’t say anything about it for a few days, or he answers someone else’s question without referencing the other, then you can be sure the answer is correct.

    Again, Kevin is very thorough and does not allow an incorrect answer to stand, but by allowing other yehus like me to answer, he saves a lot of time, energy, and effort.

    Oh.  And if you didn’t want a yehu like me to answer a question (not about A&A rules per se) you directed at Kevin, you probably should have PM’d him.  :-)

    Thankyou gamerman, great information on how this thread works. Keep up the good work.

    It’s not necessary to PM me.  As gamerman01 said, if I don’t contradict an answer on this thread (usually within a few hours, or maybe a day if I’m really busy), you can trust it.


  • Does a AA Gun in a transport count as something onboard? Can I still bring an inf and a tank with it?

  • '18 '17 '16 '11 Moderator

    Here’s one:

    England can move into China without officially declaring war on Japan, right?  (The effect is that the war is declared since Japan can then declare war without worry about America) but can Russia do the same?

    @MightyPol:

    Yes, it counts.  You can only bring an infantry with it.

    @Cmdr:

    Neither can move units into China when not at war with Japan.


  • I need a clarification: Rules Alpha2+

    Someone ask: are Greece and Turkey connected?
    Answer Krieghund: Greece and Turkey are connected by land.

    So Turkey is not longer a Narrow strait, I don’t need transports to reach the other side, this has changed from the Europe rulesbook?
    So Danish is the only narrow strait without an exception. Because Turkey is connected to land and subs is allowed to pass gibraltar.

    If I wonna move warships from seazone 99 to 100 which territories I have to control?
    1.)Only turkey
    2.) Only Greece
    3.) or both turkey and Greece?

    And what is the meaning of DD, I found it several times here in the forum. I suspect Battleship but be not sure.


  • DD is destroyer
    Panama and Suez canals are canals and not straits, but they work the same way as the Danish strait - as you said, there are no exceptions (subs getting through and whatnot).

    You do not need transports to go from Greece to Turkey.

    Moving warships between 99 and 100, you need to control only Turkey because the land on both sides is Turkey and not Greece.

  • Official Q&A

    The Turkish Straits are still a narrow strait - nothing has changed.  The reason that you can cross from Turkey to Greece by land, and that you need only control Turkey to control the Turkish Straits, is that the strait is contained entirely within the territory of Turkey.  This is the same situation with the Panama Canal in Central America.
