@RedArmySoldier:
Has the official Europe/Global FAQ been released already like the Pacific FAQ?
No, but there are Official Rules Clarifications.
@Cmdr:
No, I took a break and didnt read two or three (thousand) pages. lol. So I got confused.
Thing is, it was on this page.

Yes, but again, not when Gamerman posted his reply saying it was on “this page.” And yes, I’m feeling petulant.

Two questions:
I) Can UK fly over Russian territory in the following cases:
1) Russia is not at war with anyone?
2) Russia is at war with Japan but UK isn’t?
3) Russia and UK both at war with Japan?
II) Can Italian troops disembark from a German TRN on Italy’s turn and immediately on Germany’s turn German troops can board and land from the same TRN, basically back to back transporting?

I1) No
I2) Yes
I3) Absolutely
II) Yes.
Note: I2 and I3 apply to Soviet territories on the Pacific map only. The USSR must be at war with Germany and/or Italy before UK (or anyone else) may overfly Soviet territories on the Europe map.

Awesome clarification, thank you Krieg!
Ok, sneaky attack question.
If Britain has 2 fighters, a carrier, and a cruiser off Gibraltar in z92 and Italy has a cruiser in z94, a battleship in z96, destroyers in z93 and z95, and undefended transports in z99; can Britain attack z94 with its cruiser, z96 with a fighter, and send a fighter to z99 to splash the transports under the allowed assumption of victory in z94 and z96 which would allow the carrier to come and pick up the z99 fighter in non-combat? (Crete is neutral, Greece is German, and Cyprus and Syria are Italian, so no landings there)
The intention is to roll 1 round for z94 and z96 and retreat (if attackers are still alive), stranding the z99 fighter so that it dies, and sending the carrier elsewhere in non-combat.

Legal. Since you can assume your naval attack will succeed and thus, the fighters would have a legal place to land. Since the carrier cannot make it to recover the fighter, you may Non-Combat move it to whereever you want.

That’s what I thought. Thanks.
Hi All,
I hope this isn’t answered already in this thread.
I have a question relating to the new Alpha 3+ AA-guns. The rules state:
“Each AA gun in the territory may fire up to three times, but only once per attacking air unit.”
Does this mean that when I have 4 AA-guns in a territory and two planes attack that territory, I get to fire 8 times at the planes? In abstracto: each AA-gun may fire at each plane? (max 3 off course) :?
Thanks!
Another question:
Can I land with UK, ANZAC and US planes in Dutch territories (DEI and Suriname), while they are still under Dutch control? :?
(And I know USA should be at war)
One would say that seen the Dutch Queen and government are in London already, they wouldn’t mind some allied planes defending the colonies… :roll:

No, that means that you get to fire one shot at up to 6 attacking planes. If an attacker brings 11 planes, then 5 of them will not be shot at by your AA Guns in that battle.

Up to 12 planes, no?
In short:
If you have 4 AA’s and 20 planes attack, you shoot with 12 dice.
If you have 4 AA’s and 1 plane attacks, you shoot with 1 dice.
Can I land with UK, ANZAC and US planes in Dutch territories (DEI and Suriname), while they are still under Dutch control? :?
nee :)
They have to be land units
(i don’t know if USA can do this at all, i suppose they can, once at war…)
Misread what he said.
1 AA Gun can fire at up to 3 attacking aircraft, even if there are 99 attacking aircraft. The other 96 over-whelm the fire rate of the gun and get through the AA Gun screen without risk.
2 AA Guns can fire at up to 6 attacking aircraft, even if there are 99 attacking aircraft. The other 93 over-whelm the fire rate of the gun and get through the AA Gun screen without risk.
3 AA Guns can fire at up to 9 attacking aircraft, even if there are 99 attacking aircraft. The other 90 over-whelm the fire rate of the gun and get through the AA Gun screen without risk.
…
32 AA Guns can fire at up to 96 attacking aircraft, even if there are 99 attacking aircraft. The other 3 over-whelm the fire rate of the gun and get through the AA Gun screen without risk.
33 AA Guns can fire at up to 99 attacking aircraft, even if there are 99 attacking aircraft. There are no aircraft to over-whelm the fire rate of the gun and get through the AA Gun screen without risk.

Yes, air units at war may land on allied territories, Dutch territories are allies with USA,UK,Anzac,USSR,China, and France.
Prior to the “special” conversion rule with land units, you can use Dutch territories as landing sites even if you do not intend to take it over, it is still an ally. Dutch is different than other allies, in that you may take over its IPCs unlike any other ally whose capital is in enemy hands without having to liberate it first from the Axis.
Regarding aagun Min/Max rules: (if I have this hammered down)
No aagun may fire more than 3 times. No plane may be shot at more than one time by any number of aaguns.
Regarding Dutch zones, I wonder if you liberate Holland, and they save their money for a minor factory if you can have them buy units? LOL, I know you can’t, but it would be nice if that income was liberated instead of taken in over in Holland, and they could participate :) Good house rule if you are bored I suppose.
