…do the Aleutian islands count as an island group a la Philippines,
Yes, they even have an US roundel
…or are they meant to be connected to Alaska so land units can move between the two?
No.
Looking at the map the Aleutian Islands appear to be very strategically valuable, especially with an airbase. I’m wondering two things:
Can land units travel from Alaska to Aleutians w/o transport? (I’m thinking no?)
Can naval units travel directly from SZ 1 to SZ 2? (I’m thinking yes?)
Based on the artwork neither is immediately intuitive to me.
As you say, it is an island. It must be treated as an island.
well this isnt risk….walking from africa to south america and all
A&A seems to discorage units crossing any ammount of water without a transport, ill have to take a close look at the map
