You can have a sea battle to clear the way for an amphibious assault in the same turn, if the sea battle is in the sea zone from which the assault will take place and not an intervening sea zone. As Cmdr Jennifer said, if there is a battle to clear the sea zone, your ships may not bombard in support of the amphibious assault.
Shore Bombardment vs Air units ?
-
The rules state Shore Bombardment works against LAND units. So defending air units can not be taken as casualties in for a hit ?
Thanks

In the original rules, I believe you’re right. The Larry Harris Tournament Rules amends it to allow for air units to be bombarded. See the bottom of page 12. http://www.axisandallies.org/files/AAR_LHTR_v2.0.pdf

Thanks for the info!
But, on p. 27 in the unit profiles, it says land units…

Fleetwood Dan is correct. It’s land units only in the box rules, and both land and air units in LHTR.
