AAG40 FAQ

I had the understanding that Mechs could only blitz in the company of a Tank which would mean your example of splitting the units into the second territory would not be allowed.
-
Since, in that example, Egypt was friendly territory at the time, the movement is not considered blitzing. Blitzing is moving into a hostile space before entering a second.

That’s right, blitzing is only done during the combat movement phase.

To any gamers out there please assit. In Alpha 2 Strategic Bombing. Fighter escorts travelling with the Bombers fire at 1 against interceptors which fire at 2. The rules state remove interceptor casualties immediately. Does this mean that interceptors that are shot down by escorts cannot shoot at the bombers?
Example: Germany has 3 SMB with 6 fighter escorts against 6 UK fighter interceptors. The escorts fire at 1 and achieve 1 hit. Does this mean only 5 interceptors can fire at the German Bombers or can six still fire? If 6 can still fire why do the rules state remove the interceptors immediately?
Please clarify

In this example you would remove 1 UK fighter and then fire @2 with the remaining 5 fighters. The bombers then also get to fire at the interceptors @ 1. Remove casualties. Any surviving bombers get fired at by AAGuns then any surviving bombers after that get to roll to bomb IC NB or AB.
Note: the bombers and interceptors fire at the same time like any other battle. Escorts are like subs they get that first strike before anyone else. Also if UK got say 5 hits with their interceptors you would remove the 3 bombers first and the remaining 2 would be taken on the escorts. -
Hello; question on USA NCM. If USA and Japan are not at war until USA has DOW on turn 3, can USA NCM on turn 3 end in an adjacent sea zone to an allied power – eg USA boats in z37 around Malaysia if still UK owned? Can USA units land on Allied territory at end of NCM turn 3 under same conditions?
Thanks!

Are you sure about that?

Assuming Alpha2
In the Pacific, the USA can end movement anywhere except in sea zones with Jap controlled territory while neutral.
It’s in the Atlantic that the USA can end movement only adjacent to US territories while neutral.It is unclear what you mean by USA DOW on turn 3. You could mean at the beginning of USA3 (Axis has met conditions), or you could mean the automatic DOW allowed at the END of USA3. Presumably you mean the former, because you’re asking about USA NCM in turn 3.
If DOW at beginning of USA turn, then all restrictions are lifted and USA may land on allied territory, yes.
If DOW at end of USA turn, the DOW occurs after NCM, so no, the USA can not land on allied territory until turn 4 if this is the case. -

See #8 of the Alpha2 ruleset.

Can Kamikazes be used on transports, even if the event in question is sea combat, where the transports are uninvolved?

Kamikazes only hit surface warships. Never transports, and never subs.

When exactly do the US and USSR enter war if unprovoked in Global Alpha+2?
-
When exactly do the US and USSR enter war if unprovoked in Global Alpha+2?
Same as OOB (no change)
USA (per page 35 of the Europe manual) at the beginning of USA’s collect income phase of turn 3.
USSR at the beginning of its 4th turn, (page 33 of the Europe manual)

Thank you, Gamerman.

I don’t remember if this has been asked:
Can you fly over the Turkey straight while they are neutral? sz 100 to sz 99?
-
Yes, you may. Canals and narrow straits never block the movement of air units.

I think i read somewhere that a transport conducting an amphibious assault needs a surface warship to do so. Is this correct? For Alpha2.
Thanks. -

Thanks.Only if there are defending ships or planes that might scramble.

Ok. Thanks for the answer.
Btw. why are you calling yourself Die Flottenmoerderin? You are not German are you? -
