I guess we always did it wrong then :-D

Is that working as intended? Thats quite stupid…
Is Japan considered an Island for scrambling purposes?
Is that so?
So in essence it further weakens bombardement which is not conducted in the opening fire step anymore and gimps the pricey cruiser even further?
Correct you can do both.
You can even conquer a japanese controlled chinese territory and place your units there in the same turn you conquered it.
Hi all!
I’ve been a long time A&A player and finally got my 1940 today.
What immediately met my eye in the rules was the amphibious assaults rule on page 15.
It says there that if there was any kind of seacombat in the zone no ship can bombard and no transport may land troops. Is this really the case? At least we always played the older editions differently that you could assign ships to sea or landcombat and that a ship did not hamper you assault abilities.
Hypothetical situation: Japan is besieged by the US fleet. Whats to stop Japan to just send a single destroyer into the sz containing the US fleet to stall the invasion indefinately?
Update: Quote from page 12: IF an amph assault involves a sea combat, any air unit etc…
This implies that it is possible to have both. So what is correct?
