@Panz3r:
hi,
you can attack a convoy simply declaring a convoy attack with a ship that can reach an enemy convoy zone (symbol indicate a convoy zone).
The normal surface ships cause a loss of 1 to your enemy
Submarine causes a loss of 2 to your enemy
Remember each convoy can’t lose more IPC than the total IPC of the territory.
Example:
if you attack the english borneo convoy with japanese with 2 sub and a surface warship your attack is worth 5 (2 for each sub and 1 for the ship) but borneo is worth 4 and can lose a maximum of 4 are enough 2 subs :lol: .
that is 8-)
enjoy
if i forget something someone will add
bye
It is also possible to double ding a territory. If you attack convoys off 2 different coasts of the same 1 IPC territory, for example, than each attack may take 1 ipc even though this actually double the value of the territory. Simply put, each convoy attck is calculated on its own and the results of another attack do not affect it.
To clarify panzer leader’s first sentence, there is no movement in the convoy attack phase, your ships must already be in position at the start of the phase.
Lastly, make sure you get the errata for the game as the rules have been tweaked (and the political rules replaced) since the game came out.
AH/WotC is also providing 6 more Japenese tactical bombers to those who request it (the game was accidently shorted) along with a corrected battleboard (the one in the game was copied from AA1942, hence the german roundel, and lacks mech inf and tac bombers), so be sure to drop them a line. They may ask for your old battle board as proof of purchase.
