• is moving an aircraft carrier to catch a plane considered non combat movement? if so does this make it impossible for a japanese aircraft carrier to take the alaskan convoy without engaging in combat?


  • To take a convoy, you MUST move in the Combat Phase ALWAYS, even if there are no actual defending enemy units there. An aircraft carrier will take the convoy as effectively as any other vessel.

    The planes (if any) can then land on the aircraft carrier after their mission (wherever it was). Don’t forget that you cannot send planes on a suicide mission - it must be POSSIBLE for them to reach either friendly land or a carrier after their battle, even if the chances of their surviving are almost infinitesimally small.
