Sunken Carriers

@Rescue55-joe I believe the “10 IPCs for each country” that you are referring to are actually the National Control Markers, which are used to track both conquered territories and national production levels. As barnee pointed out, IPCs are not physically provided, and the Rulebook instructs us to track them on paper, but any proxy (such as Monopoly money) will do. See page 7 of the Rulebook for details on both National Control Markers and IPCs.

In a nutshell, the National Production Track is used to chart your “income” using a National Control Marker. and every turn the “money” goes into your “bank account”, which is represented by IPCs, where it can be spent on new units (or saved for later).

I hope this helps.

@smallprint76 said in Is Northern Ireland considered connected to Sea Zone 9?:

@panther

Thanks for your response.

I was kind of coming to the conclusion that Northern Ireland was not connected to SS9 on my own but good to get clarification. Makes sense, due to the way the map is drawn and the fact that you can’t go through neutral territories (Ireland).

Yes, indeed.

Follow on question would then be are N.Ireland and UK considered same game space.

Yes

On board they look like they are almost touching. But assume you can take a ship through Irish straits.

Yes, sea zones 6 and 8 are adjacent.

So do you have to move troops to Northern Ireland using a transport?

No, Northern Ireland is not a separate territory.

And if someone attacked UK would NI units be considered part of battle?

Yes, Northern Ireland is not a separate territory.

@panther Thank you for the link. Unfortunately, I have finished translating the whole rulebook, but I’ll be sure to use if I ever translate the 1940 and 1942 versions. Right now, I’m going to work on the Anniversary version instead, even though I don’t own that version (nor the 1940 and 1942 versions). Thank you very much for your help.

@superbattleshipyamato

It’s a general concept of every A&A game (at least those on a Global scope, also 1940 Europe and 1940 Pacific).

@leebear

Yeah, well, there’s nothing rose in terms of accuracy. I’m waiting on people’s responses on the accuracy of War Room and Global War before thinking about purchasing them.

@RYNO87 said in Fighter and aircraft carrier questions:

If a fighter in EASTERN US wants to land on a carrier in SZ13, is that 2 moves or 3 bc you count the landing?

You don’t count the landing.
Rulebook 1941, page 23: “In other words, each time an air unit crosses a boundary between spaces, whether territories or sea zones, it uses 1 movement point.”
So your scenario takes two movement points.

Also, can you place a new fighter on a carrier adjacent to a industrial complex or does it have to start at the IC.

Rulebook 1941, page 20: “Place fighters either in territories containing eligible industrial complexes, or on your aircraft carriers in sea zones (even hostile ones) adjacent to such territories. You can even place new fighters on an aircraft carrier currently being mobilized. However, you cannot place a new fighter on a carrier owned by a friendly power.”

I have moved your topic to the 1941 forum.

@RYNO87 Indeed, the fighters move independently from the carrier. All combat movement happens simultaneously. So while the fighters fly the carrier moves. So you have described it correctly.

Thanks a lot P@nther, its very clear now.
