Newbie: transport question

@panther
Interesting. Thank you.

@Panther thanks for all your help and responses.

@HansOop:

I think I know the answer to my own question and the answer is I have no option but to engage in dice battle and to either keep battling or retreat back to where I came from.

Right, the purpose of the Combat Move Phase is to move into hostile territories to either initiate combat (against hostile units) or just capture the territory (in case there are no enemy combat units present).

Welcome to the forum  :-)

Witt is correct. But just to add that if you are transporting your own units (rather than an allies’) you can indeed load and unload in the same turn. Witt mentions the 2 move per turn limit in this regard, which may (of course) mean that you have not reached your final destination.

Welcome indeed to our forum jalk65.

Hope you have a great time zaa. All of us love it, or we would not be here!

Thanks for the help!

I found it at Target for $18.00 US.  I wouldn’t pay anything over $25.00 for it and honestly that is pushing it.  When you open the box you will understand why.

I think it’s a fun game, especially if you want something relatively quick and simple. While I love Global, occasionally it is nice to play something that is so simple. I think it is more fun as the attacker because you simply don’t have to worry about SBRs or shore bombardment. Also, no AA fire to threaten your planes.
I think it is easier for the Axis to win. I have played a handful of games and only once so far did the Allies win, although I have not tried the new changes in setup yet. Also, I might have been just lucky so far (I usually play Axis). I have noticed if certain battles don’t go right for the Axis, the Allies could gain the upper hand.
Basically, it’s good if you just got a couple of hours or so to kill and you don’t want to leave the game set up.
