Destroyer question: Can they carry infantry in AAP40?

Thank you for the clarification. :)

Thanks very much.

yeah, its my mistake. the rulebook says that the US gets their 40 ipc boost in the turn after a japanse attack on a allied territory. China is not included

but if you had to choose between the two then artillery. they should really never have any territories left that are more than two spaces away from india anyways. Artillery allow you the ability to attack, while mech inf give you the ability to move lots. Although India should do little of each, it’s conceivable to be doing an attack or two before you die. But not a huge movement.

They only way you would be able to avoid the scramble is to send a sub since the planes cannot target without a destroyer.

Thanks, not really a big deal.

I’m now somewhat curious about the reasons for the “under protection” wording.

Why not just:

Dutch like power whose capital is controlled by enemy
except UK/ANZAC can take control

If UK/ANZAC provokes war, Japan is free to attack the UK/ANZAC and take Dutch territories, without bringing the US into the war.

@jim010:

I amphibiosly attack Philipines.  There is a transport in the sea zone.  My BBs can ignore the transport and do shore bombardment, while I hit the transport with planes and/or other ships?

No.  If you attack the transport, everything attacks it.  You can either kill it or bombard, not both.

@jim010:

While I have your attention, can I build a minor factory on a zone worth 1 IPC?

No.
