Hi Prey. All Air units land in non combat and they have the balance of their unused movement: a Fighter has 4, so if they moved 3 in Combat, then they only have 1 left. Air units cannot land in a territory that has just been captured. They could land on an empty Carrier.
Fighter/Carrier Movement Question
-
quick question on fighters and carriers:
for a fighter landing on a carrier, does it cost a movement point to move into the carrier’s sea zone and another movement point to land on the carrier? Or is it considered the same movement? -
It doesnt cost any extra movement points to land on a carrier, its as if you were able to land on a sea zone.
For example, you could fly from a carrier in the East Indies, attack India, and land back ont he carrier.
-
No, it is not a movement point to go from SZ to the carrier in that SZ.
-
Nor does it count as a move to “take off” from a carrier to the occupied sea zone. If the ftr is on a carrier, it can move 3 spaces maximum from the carrier, if it intends to land on the same carrier. The carrier must then move 2 spaces toward the ftr in the non-combat move, while the ftr returns 1 space to land. (It’s a lot easier to understand looking at the board.)
