Hey guys got another question about Rockets.
Can you fire rockets and then move the AA gun in non-combat?
Thanks :-)
-
No. Fire or move, take your pick.
Page 21:
Phase 5: Noncombat move
In this phase, you can move any of your units that did not move in the Combat Move phase or participate in combat during your turn.Your AA gun participated in combat if it fired.

I know the answer to this question, but I need it resolved for a tourny game I am playing in:
_4 allies subs in sz14, 1 allied sub in sz15. 2 Japanes dds from sz34 move past sz15 to sz14 and attack the 4 subs there. Also, a tranny from sz34 moves to sz14 and amphib assaults Balkan. A third Japanes dd moves from sz34 to sz15 and attacks the lone allied sub there. _
Is this all legal movement and combat? The issue is the Allied player is saying that if the Japanes attack the sub in sz15, then the movement to sz14 is not allowed, citing the rule that if subs are attacked, all naval units in in the sea zone must participate in the naval combat (page 9 in the rule book, PDF version) and if the Japanese did not attack the sub in sz15, then the move to sz14 would be allowed.
-
All 3 Japanese attacks are legal.
The rule cited means that any warships in the zone AT THE END OF COMBAT MOVEMENT must participate in the attack.
The destroyers and transport traveled through Z15 in the combat movement phase, but that is irrelevant because they did not stop there. Submarines and transports can be ignored for movement purposes.
The rule he cited just means that if you had another naval unit end its move in zone 15, it would have to participate in the naval combat in Z15. There is no rule that says the 2 destroyers from Z34 have to stop and conduct combat in Z15.

No
Yes, of course. But the majority of attention always goes to the newest, shiniest toy (in this case, AA1914 WW1)

Kreig,
Does a player have to collect income on Phase 7, or can he choose not too collect?
We are playing triple AAA. -

We are playing triple AAA.You must collect all income due you, including NO’s (if you’re playing with NO’s) - it is not an option.

Of course, assuming that you CAN collect income. By this, I mean that you own your capital. If your capital is in enemy hands, you can not collect income.

It is my understanding that you can buy an aircraft carrier for planes to land.
I also believe you can do this to extend their range into a battle.
In other words, the SZ I wish to move 2 ftrs into battle is 4 moves for the ftrs. Without a carrier to move into that same SZ (either existing or bought) these planes can not go into that SZ battle (no kamikazes as planes need to have a <potential>landing zone).If an A/C is bought to catch planes, and those planes are lost, the A/C does not have to be moved/placed in that SZ.
But if 1 planes still survives, then the A/C must be moved.Is this the same with the PLACEMENT of the A/C? I would think that the planes survival would require the A/C to be placed in that SZ (instead of another IC adjacent to water). In other words, just because I BOUGHT a new A/C, that I can let the surviving plane(s) crash dive by placing the new A/C elsewhere.
Just trying to confirm my understanding. Thank you!</potential>
-
You must mobilize the carrier in the declared sea zone if a fighter survives. If no fighters survive, you may mobilize the carrier elsewhere, assuming you have another option. In any case, the carrier must be mobilized somewhere (assuming you have sufficient capacity).
-
I’m pretty sure I no the answer to this question but just need to make sure.
Can you place newly bought ftrs on friendly carriers?
Say Americans have a carrier off the coast of England
Can the British place newly bought ftrs on that carrier?Thanks Flip,
-
You can’t do that.
