New with questions

@cernel That looks right.

thank you Krieghund,

once again you have answered my rules questions within a day of posting them.  you are awesome!

In 2nd it must be in the same seazone.

@El:

Bolter,

just a personal question…

Are you a heavy drinker?
With that nick and close
it justs looks that way. :D

ROFL! that’s a good one!

Cheers! is not an exhortation to drink, it’s so people in the boards cheer-up.

I play online WW2 flight sims like Aces High and WW2OL. People really need to cheer-up on those boards ;)

Incidently, I got my nickname while doing carrier trials for an Aces High naval squadron. I couldn’t catch the wire when landing, and that’s what the Navy calls a bolter…it stuck.

With that said…Cheers! :D

As far as the AA-gun question, its never come up w/ us–we just go by memory (AA guns are not usually captured then recaptured then captured again). If you need help, I suppose you could place a territory marker under the AA gun to show ownership. You’d have to be careful though not to confuse it w/ the marker of who owned the territory! Disputes between allies are very bad in A & A :wink: !

“Not just in A&A, but in life in general. Compare the amount of coverage the Pacific gets compared to the Europe in terms of movies, media coverage, games, text, and the like. Interesting considering the war in the Pacific was much more intense.”

Ah true. But you are thinking of it in the broad spectrum of the war in general. There are tons of movies out there about both theaters of war. The thing is, most movies about Europe cover the war there in general (not necessarily the entire war, but large chunks of it covering many battles). Movies about the Pacific usually focus on one or two, maybe three specific battles. Therefore, because Europe is given a wider span of battles, it always seems like the Pacific is left out, when in truth movies about the Pacific are a lot more specific to a certain battle or two.

Well I do admit it sometimes tough to land fighters from different territories after a major battle. The Battle of the Atlantic with the Luftwaffe is a perfect example of this. I this case, rather the assign movement points to each plane, I’ll probably let them land at optimal range.

Under normal A&A with 3rd Edition Rules, I would strongly advise against this. The reason being is that subs can be sunk easily, especially by UK’s RAF the following turn. This also screw you out of 5 valuable inf that could be used elsewhere.

However, with House Rules A&A Sub-pens, Coastal Blockading, Detection Rules, and Wolf Packs, having an IC is Western Europe can certainly be well worth the risk. It adds a new dimension to the Atlantic War limited not only to the air.
