@Stucifer said in Path to Victory League Discussion:

@gamerman01 @regularkid @Adam514
Looking for some clarification on carrier scrambles to defend units in land battles. I have been playing with the assumption that you can scramble from carriers to defend adjacent territory units whether that is a lone AAA, infantry, or strategic bomber.

The land scramble from Airfield specifically says defending units, which is certainly all-inclusive; however, the carrier scramble says “surface warships or land units”. I know this specifically excludes submarines and transports. Does it also exclude AAA and aircraft?

After all, “Land Units” could be interpreted by a player using the game notes to not include aircraft or AAA, since they do not qualify as garrison forces for the Chinese Guerilla rule.

Let me know, I’m sure it’s been brought up before, I’m combing the discussion threads now as well.

AA gun is a land unit. For the Chinese Guerilla rule, it mentions it requires a land unit and lists all of them except the AA gun So you can scramble to defend AA guns.

Air are also land units when viewed from the point of view of the carrier. It isn’t clear in the rules, but you can normal scramble and carrier scramble to defend only planes.

That’s a good point. I brought it up in the League discussion thread and we can ask gamerman to make a mod ruling decision, but I did find a couple posts in the Rules Discussion that clarifies the intent of the designers. This is probably a case where fan-made rules don’t get quite the rigourous editing and polish as the base game (although, to be fair, there are plenty of errata in the official published games!)

Indeed, they’re whipping out the history books to study the guns of Ticonderoga, and how can we slide these ships up onto the shores of Albania. Maybe splitting them up into 7 or 8 sea zones is the way to go 😂

I will say if I was playing PtV low luck I can’t imagine Axis would get a bid. I would definitely want a bid to play Allies. I believe with a 0 bid you can be at 100% odds for Sealion on G3 with a naval buy G1 (CV, DD, tp) and 11-transport buy G2.

That’s with UK bringing the Gibraltar + Malta fighter back and building 18 infantry + a fighter for London.
