Map question

The only time it didn’t work for me was when my dice went sour on G5 & G6 going into Russia, But the following week it worked and everybody was rolling better, I have yet to try it with the latest 3.9 rules. So much depends on good rolls at key battles and being able to work as an Axis team.

@surfer said in Question about bombardment:

Perhaps it applies only to lone transport assaults.

Correct. It is only lone transports. Any warship, and that includes carriers, can invoke the rule to ignoring the lone sub on defense.

@barnee said in Question about bombardment:

I can’t remember for certain, but I don’t think you can have a undefended trprt in the same SZ as an enemy sub at all. It can move through them though.

Actually a lone sub only prevents unloading of a lone transport. A lone transport may still load troops in a zone occupied only by enemy sub(s) and can move through them too.

Too bad, we’ll just have to make do.

But thanks for the quick replies!

@Gargantua:

if A RACK attacked a TURKEY from behind, would GREASE help? only if your RUSSIAN for food, and there’s no sense in STALIN. 😛

Great play on words :P.

Very nice!

As I suspected.  Thanks!

@creeping-deth87:

chances are you’re going to lose the battleship you took to the channel in the opening attacks, which leaves your Baltic fleet pretty thin

You can also use the battleship for the SZ 111 attack and retreat it after one round. The British are then typically left with a damaged battleship that can’t escape because SZ 111 has no harbor.

That is usually where I send the German battleship, SZ 111. My attack on the Channel is all planes and maybe a couple of subs. Although, it has backfired on me when the fighter in Scotland doesn’t scramble and I get very good hits as Germany and end up sinking all the UK ships. Then my poor battleship is stuck all alone in SZ 111.
A good part of that scenario is it gives UK another target, but they have to commit planes to sink it (usually at least 2). That’s less UK planes bothering me somewhere else.

You would have to place one Carrier in SZ 6 to collect it.

There is no such thing as a one way mission(suicide). There must be a possible landing space for each air unit or the combat is not allowed.
AAA here on this site allows planes to crash and die sometimes when a valid spot is available. It is an error in the programme.

@Dijitz:

So no’s would be kept track of via web board?

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.  🙂
