Aircraft carrier movement…

@jgbarg Just remember, the China units (including airplane) can never LEAVE china. Not that china or the plane live long enough to make that matter…

@theROCmonster:

I agree with you that LRA is pretty powerful, and possibly over powerful if your playing competitor got it for cheap. I don’t agree with replacing it with paratroopers. Simply for the reason that paratroopers are aweful. Maybe make LRA +1 to air movement.

the +1 on movement was also our solution to the way overpowered (compared to other techs) LRA weapon

@Crazyivan_06:

Do fighters with long range aircraft tech receive their plus one movement, for total of two instead of one if their aircraft carriers was sunk in 1940 Global.

I would recommend to ask this question in the 1940 Global forum.
It’s confusing here, because LRA tech in Anniversary Edition is different from Global 1940:

In Anniversary Edition it is 4+2 / 6+2 (based on the initial range), see your question regarding this subject in the other AA50 posting
( http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=20225.msg1125838#msg1125838 ).

In Global 1940 it is “All of your air units’ ranges are increased by 1 space.”

But I agree with Make_It_Round, that - concerning Global 1940 - this is an interesting question - maybe for Krieghund.

OK that helps!

@Krieghund:

No.  It must end its movement in the space in which it wants to land.

sneaky idea, though.

@Lozmoid:

Even if those extra Fighters survive the battle and then have to crash into the sea?

Interesting stuff!  :-)

The thing is, you don’t know if those fighters will have to crash into the sea. They may end up on non-combat move without a valid landing spot but when you perform your combat moves there’s always a statistical change that the carrier will kill the 100 battleships (even though it should be about the same as you de-materializing while reading this message and materializing on the next room) thus the combat move satisfies the rule of a valid landing spot (regardless of how improbable it might be).

Combat moving 2 extra fighters to a battle goes against that same rule because there’s simply no possibility for those fighters to land during non-combat as they are moved (unless a carrier magically pops up out of nowhere into the middle of the battle board - odds for that happening should be the same as you teleporting yourself to another room) .

@Krieghund:

1st: 1984
2nd: 1986
3rd: 1997

Thanks again.

Now, I hope I will find time to describ  the evolution of the control effect of Subs on SZ.

gotta move planes first, then carrier in either combat or NCM.
