Denmark question

If you’re using 2nd edition, you don’t need anything from Alpha 3, as it’s all been incorporated into the 2nd edition.  Use the 2nd edition setups, which can be found here.

Officially, it’s only for Global.  However, there’s nothing to stop you from using it in Europe.

@daffy2war:

The suez and Panama canals have different sea zone #'s on either side of them but no white border seperating them, does this count as a free move through the canal?

The canal itself is not a space, but the two seazones are different and it does take 1 movement point to move from 98 to 81 and vice versa.

In other words, yes.

You are, for two reasons.  First, subs fire or submerge before anything else fires, unless there is an enemy destroyer in the battle.  Second, air units can’t hit subs unless there’s a destroyer friendly to the air units in the battle.  So, in the case of only air units attacking only subs, the subs can submerge before the air units fire, but even if they don’t the air units can’t hit them.

Welcome, drmckool!

NO stands for National Objective.

thank you very much, I should have figured that’s what it was, I actually love the national objectives, particularly Lebensraum; even though the historical link between lebensraum and the actual launching of Barbarossa is slightly tenuous. I found as a historian the national objectives (NO) really adds to the game because it really grounds the action in concrete history.

@squirrelfox:

Well, I certainly wouldn’t mind seeing the Soviet battleship leaving the Baltic Sea.  Makes it easier to ferry troops to Leningrad when I don’t have to take out that annoying Red Fleet, and I can take it out when I spread out into the Atlantic.  So it COULD potentially be useful to Germany to let the neutral Soviet fleet out of the Baltic.  I’d have to see it in action first before passing judgment, though.  Could be interesting… I may try it, see what happens.

I think that letting the Soviet BB hook up with the Royal Navy would be bad news for Germany. Better, as the Offspring song exhorts, to “keep 'em separated”.
