Do transports go on the battle board during amphibious assaults?

@EskimoJack:

I was going to answer in this thread, but you may still be my opponent in the final match of the tournament and it would be foolish of me to give such information away  :-)

NICE  :-)  :-)  :-)

+1 karma for ya

@Bunnies:

@allies_fly:

I am not new to Revised, but new here.  I have been trolling the board for a while

I like the PBF area.
who are some of the better player so I can follow their games

thankz for ur replies

Trolling rly?

it IS almost fishing season!

The plexiglass idea works very well.

I used to have a large sheet of plexiglass that I had attached hex grid to the underside of for use when playing AD&D.  A sheet for a “sliding glass door” replacement panel is a standard size that you can get at a home improvement store and measures about 33" by 75".  I think I had paid about $25 for the last one I bought (circa 1997)

With the plexiglass, you are going to want to also get some small felt “feet” (the little self adhesive felt disks) while you are at Lowe’s and put those on the corners, and a few along the edges.  That will help preent sliding, and will protect your table top.

thanks for the clarification

Unless you lose or retreat from the naval battle

^^ Thanxx

@Baghdaddy:

Once a transport unloads a unit, movement for the unit and the transport is done.

No “transport chains” as you describe them.

BTW, welcome.

Stick around, there is a lot of useful information on the boards.

Thanx for your prompt response. :-)

This forum absolutely rocks :-)!!! Heaps of info, great discussions, and someone knowledgeable enough always seems to be around to respond to queries or thoughts…

Yes, it does take 2 turns.

When you board an allied TRN, once on board you are “cargo” of the TRN.  That means that, upon boarding, you are part of the TRN, and your further movement passes to the TRN.  Then, on your nation’s NEXT turn, you can offload.

OM Page 31 :

Being carried on a transport counts as the land units entire move;  it cannot move before loading or after offloading.

(emphasis added)
Boarding is movement.  Offloading is movement.  Therefore, you cannot board, and them make another mvoement to offload in the same turn.

The real kicker for clarification is in LHTR.
LHTR uses the same wording in the description of transports… with one MAJOR clarification…

Land units belonging to friendly powers must load in their controllers turn, be carried on your turn, and offload on a later turn of their controller.
