  • Elrood put it back on the Carrier. Did you not want it there? Sorry if I misunderstood.
    Cannot reach Cairo, only Johannesburg though.

    Afaik it CAN reach cairo

    1 Attack move from SZ 71 to SZ 70
    then 3 NC moves (Congo, Sudan and then Eygpt)

    Would be fine


  • Done the J fighter to Egypt.

    Trying to do the UK and have a couple of questions:

    1. Had in my head a max scramble of 3 air which I just tried to check in the rules, which say any number of air units. Can someone please confirm that there is no max to the number of planes scrambled.

    2. In checking that I see that the rules say can scramble from an island - but we scramble from non-islands all the time. Did that rule get changed?

    Thanks

    Yes that all changed between 1st Ed and 2nd Ed. of A&A 1940

    1st Ed: Scramble any number of planes from islands with an AB
    2nd Ed: Scramble up to 3 planes from any coastal territory with an AB
