:-D
In the movie; Battle of the Bulge, there is a scene where the german generals are discussing this story about the chocolate cake, still very fresh, ( I think they may have actually eaten it) and saying if the Americans have ample resources to spend on shipping cake to their soldiers then we are lost. Something to that effect anyway.
Another story, off topic, sorta, is that some bomber crews were talking about all the different kinds of ordanance that we were dropping on germany, and one crewman said, “We’ve dropped everything but the kitchen sink!” So on the next mission, you guessed it, they brought along a kitchen sink and threw it out one of the side gun windows during Bombs Away! :roll:
AA ownership question
-
Say russia moves an AA to persia, persia is taken by japan, then persia is liberated by the UK.
Who owns the AA gun. What if the gun had been moved to Kazakh & the UK captured it there?
Is ownership specific to the territory or the capturing army? -
I believe in most cases the AA gun will belong to the power that captures it, regardless of original ownership. The one exception is an AA gun in a capital, that would go to original controlling power when their capital is liberated. I am curious who would own the gun if say Japan conquered Moscow, moved that AA out in subsequent turn, than moved in another gun from somewhere else to Russia, than Russia is liberated by UK, for example?
-
Whoever controls the territory controls the gun. I think. :?
-
I have always played “capture” ownership.
I keep a national marker under each AA gun. When it is caputred, I change the marker. When someone else captures it, i change the marker again.
An AA is a “gray” unit, like an IC. It beloings to whoever seizes it.
-
The IC belongs to whoever controls the territory doesn’t it?
-
As does the AA upon taking it.
But, unlike the IC, the AA can be moved, and on the second round of “control” the owner of the AA can move it elsewhere.
