• He wasted 40 American IPCs on…rockets.


  • you should have seen Alpha do  that for radar  :evil:


  • ouch, rockets not so good for U.S.


  • just shuffle your 2 AA guns to  Morocco and bomb the hell outa itlay


  • remember that you can only use rockets with 1 aa gun at any given IC pr turn, so even if you had a hundred, you would still only get 1 dice to roll.

    personally i love rockets with gernmany because there are so many targets within range :D

    Incorrect, by the rules anyway.  Each AA Gun may fire one rocket at a different Industrial Complex within 3 spaces per territory.

    If you had 100 AA Guns in 100 Territories all within 3 spaces of a different Industrial Complex, you could do 100 rockets worth of damage.

    Oh no Jennifer, it is impossible to do 100 Rocket attacks , I am afraid…
    You see - there are only 82 Land Territories on the map (+16 impassable neutrals).  :mrgreen:

    So the definite maximum number of territories you could bomb with a Rocket attack, on a single turn, would be 41. The other 41 territories on the map, would have to have one of your AA Guns on it .

    Yes - I must have won the “Geekiest Post Award”, by that answer!  8-) :-P

    My understanding is that an IC can only be hit by one rocket per turn. I’ll go back and try to find it… Where’s Krieghund when you need him?

    That’s correct, 'Jimmy.  That’s why Jennifer said the AA guns needed to be within 3 spaces of different ICs.


  • so just to be clear for my next game when i hopefully get rockets again, since this clarification could quite heavily affect the amounts of AA guns i would buy… max 2 (vs germany + italy) vs alot :D

    if I have e.g. UK and get rockets, i can shot at the german IC from both norway, London, finland etc as long as there are no more than 3 spaces between the attacking rocket’s placement and the target. And of course only 1 AA gun firering from any country.

  • Official Q&A

    No, each IC can only be fired on by one AA gun per turn.  Your UK gun could fire on Italy and your Norway gun could fire on Germany.


  • okay, must have misunderstood jen’s post then.  I think that perhaps my initial comment “1 aa gun at any given IC pr turn” perhaps caused my confusion i light of jen’s comments.

    but thanks for clearing it up  :)
