• Situation:  Suppose i have two land units and i am getting ready to wage  a simple land battle with the enemy next door.  Also suppose that this is a coastal country, and i happen to have a transport and a battleship right on the coast.

    Rather than wage a simply land battle, can’t i simply load my land units on a transport, and then call it a bombardment with an ambitious assault?.  Therefore, in effect, i get a “two for one”, since i get bombardment?

    Yes, but you would not be able to retreat your land units is the only drawback.

    Suppose your two land units are an infantry and a tank, then you could just load the infantry onto the transport to benefit from the bombardment, and send the tank overland. That still gives you the option of retreating the tank if necessary.


  • Great idea, thanks
