Radar Stations

(1) payment of (12) or two of (6).

-Japan uses them with the vast territory of China and Russia
-Germany to the front line in Russia
-Germany to Southern Itlay for transport to Africa
-UK, South Africa to Egypt

If you play with any of the varients, that have more territory , these can be more useful

So where we at on these markers?

Cost: 12-15 Attack: - Defense: - Move: -

These can only be build in controlled areas that contain a factory and only one per territory. If placed in an area that contains a major factory they can move 10 units, and 3 if placed in a minor factory, and they must start from Rail Station. If the factory is damaged the  rail movement is equal to placement value.

Rail Stations have a fixed AA defense of 1 roll like AB or NB.

In order to move units you must also build Rail Markers to indicate direction of travel.

[u][b]Rail Markers:[/b][/u]

These markers cost 6 IPC each and allow land units to move from rail station along whatever path of Rail Markers have been built. They can be damaged by SBR up to six points. the first points reduce the number of land units that may move to a total of 6. ( if the Rail Station starts with a major factory you may still move 4 units) The distance is unlimited as long as you built a connected line of Rail Markers. Rail markers have no fixed AA gun defense. If the enemy captures the area where a Rail Marker is present, it is destroyed.

I’d use the silver derricks for oil and gold for Radar towers. But for me i like just the derricks for oil only. using them in all my games from now on.

The Terrain Pack in the Memoir '44 system has some train and rail markers that could work for AA. Here is a picture:  http://www.boardgamegeek.com/image/107837/memoir-44-terrain-pack      the 2 at the top of the picture are the train tokens. And the picture here http://www.boardgamegeek.com/image/107838/memoir-44-terrain-pack has an example of what some of the train tracks look like. They are on the bottom left and right.

@Imperious:

naval radar developed only insofar to made surface naval units aware that air units or ships were coming up or near.

Now that’s what I’m talking about! 
Now does that early warning should merit any bonus….  :?
There’s the question.

@Imperious:

I don’t think the game should include rules of sighting or locating ships by way of search rolls and modifiers for some kind of technology for locating them. We tried this in AARHE and it was too tedious ( version 2.0 i think)

Agreed. I wouldn’t want to add more rolls to the process… except that ASW thing but that’s another thread.

@Imperious:

Who is Jugger?

he is somebody who basically is a carrier pegion that takes info here and drops it off at larrys site, basically all these ideas with NA’s are taken with him like a German adjunctant reporting to the Fuhrer.

I will kill him, soner or later :lol: !
