PS: Has anyone actually destroyed one of these buggers while on a transport?
I have seen AA guns intentionally destroyed in this fashion to keep them from falling into enemy hands
@katfishkris:
i dont think china really had 15inf. more like 6-7. but those 6 or 7 inf wanted to attack manchuria, which had something like 3arm & 2inf. the US wanted to use their long range heavy bombers to blast the japs first, followed by the chinamen to take the IC. wasnt sure what the rule was on that ‘combined’ attack.
That’s still a lot of Chinamen. I’m lucky if I have 2 or 3…hehe. Seems a risky proposition to use your Heavy bombers, the Manchuria IC is useless to the allies. Depriving it to Japan could be usefull, and might be worth sacraficing a bomber. All depends on what else was going on.
@P@nther:
Guys, you have been misleaded … the OP thought it was a good idea to post his Anniversary-related question here in the Global forum.
@LHoffman:
Yes, I only posted it here because rules are similar and this board gets far more traffic than the Anniversary board.
It was fully disclosed as such when I posed it. If people read it before thinking they knew the answer, that would help.
@P@nther:
@taamvan:
You have 4 choices with every ship separately and independently …
This part is correct for every WWII edition at least back to and including Anniversary Edition.
Thank you. That is all I was asking.
The rules do not state this explicitly. Considering the naval retreat rule in which the attacker retreats with naval units and they all must go back to a single sea zone from which at least one ship came… I thought it plausible that a similar ‘all or nothing’ rule may apply here.
@uffishbongo:
The one involving Archangel says there must be “no other Allied forces…”
This is probably a stupid question, but does that include AA guns? I’m so used to retreating the British gun to Caucasus and now I may have knocked out 5 of my own IPC’s by doing so. :x
That is an Allied force (a UK AAA).
This is covered in the errata thread, btw, I believe.
