The US can choose to fight the battles in either order, but it won’t matter. Defending planes that lose the carrier holding them in combat get 1 movement to land after the Combat phase is done, so at that point it would already be determined if they had a friendly place to land regardless of the battle order. The landing is done after the whole combat phase to avoid confusion of planes getting to defend twice, which they don’t.
Battle Map question
-
Are all the Alpha+2 NO’s on the latest Alpha map? I can’t seem to find the German/UK and the German/Mideast Oil NO’s
-
No they’re missing.
-
So no’s would be kept track of via web board?
-
Yea, just add em up and list your IPC’s for that turn.

Alpha+.2 is still only in the Alpha stage (see Alpha vs Beta w/Google).
With changes quickly happening, the people who work on this will let a final tested ruleset come out first, then complete ABattleMap.
Until then, help to test Alpha+.2 and join all the controversy that there is. :-)
