Axis and Allies 1914 FAQ/Question and Answer Thread
-
My son had 1 more fighter related question. He wants to fly from an contested territory to an enemy territory to initiate a battle. I told him no unit could do that, exit a contest to start a new fight, but he wanted an official ruling for fighters.
Fighters can do it. It is only land units that are prohibited from doing so.
Precisely who “you” are is not clear.
Just as in the rest of that section, “you” is the attacker (the power whose turn it is).

Hi. I had a couple questions about the U.S. before they enter the war:
1. Can transports load/unload in a sea zone with U.S. surface warships? I would say they can since they are not enemies with anyone. But it’s not clear.
2. Similarly, can ships from other powers move through a sea zone with U.S. surface warships (including CPs)? Or do they block their movement? I guess these 2 questions come down to whether a sea zone containing only American ships is “friendly” to both sides.
3. Conversely, can the U.S. move through a sea zone containing surface warships? Since they are neutral I would think there is no such thing as an “enemy warship” and therefore they could.
4. If a sea zone contains Allied ships and American ships, can a CP attack the Allied ships and ignore the Americans? E.g. if the British and Americans have ships in sea zone 8 and the Germans attack it, I would think the German player can choose to either attack only the British, or attack the British and Americans (in which case the Americans would enter the war immediately).
5. If a power moves into sea zone 1, do they hit a minefield?
6. If a U.S. ship moves into a sea zone with a port, do they hit the minefield? I would think not, but if so, and an American ship is damaged/destroyed, does this cause the Americans to enter the war? -

They’re referring to Allied and Central Powers transports loading and unloading with neutral U.S. ships in the same sea zone.

No.

Sorry if this has already been asked:
I see in the rules that UK can build units in India, however, since there is no Shipyard symbol there, does that mean they cannot build ships??
Can UK build ships in India?
-
It cannot.

Question about the 2-movement rule:
Can Austrian Units move from Austrian controlled Venice through German controlled Piedmont into Burgundy which is contested between France and Germany?
A french transport with 2 british units is located in SZ 7.
Is it allowed to pick this 2 units up with a british transport? -

Yes. (This question doesn’t belong here, by the way. It belongs in the tournament rules thread.)
A french transport with 2 british units is located in SZ 7.
Is it allowed to pick this 2 units up with a british transport?No. You can’t transfer units directly between transports.

Thanks Krieg!
Your quick ruleclarifications should be available as an app for smartphones !

If there are two British infantry aboard a Russian transport which shares a sea zone with an empty French transport when the Russian Revolution occurs, causing the Russian transport to vanish, can the British infantry swim to the French ship and climb aboard?
What if they have a dog with them; is there room for the mutt too?

That’s a good one…

No answer yet. I’m betting on the sharks.
I think professor Chapman must be working on Battle of the Five Armies.
Will we get elf warriors (not archers), human warriors (not archers), woodsmen with axes, riderless wargs? Or just the same figs from WOTR recycled?
Can the board be used for the battle of Dale from the WOTR?
