Do strat-bombed naval facilities are able to receive lend-lease through them?

@david-06 I don’t believe so. The rules say that shipyards/dockyards/ports cannot be used when damaged.

Rule 11.4 specifically states: “Lend-lease may be moved across any number of sea zones; No Naval Transport is required. Such movement must leave and enter land zones where there is an undamaged Naval Facility.”

Hope that helps!

@chris_henry correct

@david-06 Correct! They certainly have an early advantage by having planes available to do so. I can’t remember off the top of my head what territories in Spain have airbases and/or naval facilities or not, but depending on how many there are for the Nationalists sending a fighter via Lend-Lease right away may not be a terrible idea in order to help protect said facilities early on! Likewise, as I think you’re alluding to, the Republicans might be able to stymie Nationalist Lend-Lease reinforcements if they can destroy enough facilities and/or blockage ports!

@chris_henry
All correct except the facilities are damaged and not destroyed. 😉

@chris_henry The nationalists have two major facilities at the start of the game.

Mind 13.1 Axis support
But yes you can make it difficult.

Thanks, I couldn’t remember and don’t have it close by at the moment!

That’s what I meant haha. I guess I used the term destroyed too loosely there, as that could certainly mean something more permanent than how I meant it!

@David-06 So yeah, I’d say being able to thwart lend lease early on is a possible option! I only asked about facilities because if the Nationalists have airbases, they could use lend-leased fighters to help scramble against SBR’s, or just generally deter the Republicans from wanting to risk their planes getting shot down. If the Nationalists have more than one harbor with which to have Lend-Lease arrive, might not be quite as urgent for them to have an air unit sent immediately!
