AND the Dice Roll is ODD!
PTV Art of War (Ax+5) v Nikola (Al)

On p. 15, under Scramble: Scrambled planes "may defend against the enemy ships conducting the amphibious assault even if friendly ships are not present. The operative phrase is ‘conducting the amphibious assault.’ Other ships friendly to the attacker are not a part of the assault.
I’ll get back to this tomorrow.

@artofwar1947 Hm, still not clear, but you are more experienced with this, so I trust that.
Please run the dice on the forum once you decide, I don’t know how to do that.

See p. 20 on Multinational Forces: "Units on the same side can share a territory or sea zone, constituting a multinational force. Such forces can DEFEND together, BUT THEY CAN’T ATTACK TOGETHER. ANZAC was the attacker, NOT the US fleet.
Recommend you run a simulation of the situation (i.e., set up the situation and lay it through in local game).

You actually had an infantry and arty attacking, but the outcome is the same.

Hello, check out scramble decisions - Africa and Pacific.
-
Scramble 3 fighters from Algeria and 1 from SZ 94 (4 all together) to Morocco.
No Pacific scrambles.

@artofwar1947 How did you attack with a fighter which was not able to land? That was not a legal move. Don’t tell me that you tried to sink a whole fleet with that one sub and then get through with a carrier to land on it :)
-
That is the rule exactly.
-
Well, planes can only move if they are able to land after the battle phase. You are not allowed to send fighters on a suicide mission.
Sending sub on a theoretical mission to sink the whole fleet and counting on that is a suicide mission. There is no way you could have expected that the sub will win that battle and that you will be able to pick up the fighter with a carrier after that.
You are using a lie to a fighter pilot, to me, and to yourself, in order to win the battle (and a game). Is this the way you want to play the game? I think not.
-
The rules specify that a fighter can move to move make an attack if a carrier COULD be there for it to land. The attacking sub makes it possible, however unlikely, the CV could be there for it to land. This strategy was used against me early on and has been explained in nthe League General Discussion. Granted the rule does not make sense, but as a player, I do not get to chose only rules that I like.
-
No, I don’t agree. When you have sent a fighter to kill those transports, you have known that you will not be able to land it. It is not that there was a chance - there was not any chance to land that plane. So, you have sent it to kamikaze mission and that is not part of the game.
In case this was used against you in the past, it was not the right thing to do. I don’t wish to play games where technical workarounds are used in your advantage. I don’t thin it is fair - you have sent the plane to kamikaze mission, which is not allowed and I have always played it like that. We are playing the game to have fun, not to find a way to cheat on other player.
-
@ArtofWar1947 Are you technically right? You might be and in that case I am surrendering this game - there is loads of unfairness in politics and business in the real world I live in, I don’t need things like these in games I play :grin:
