Air Scramble Question

Appreciate all the help. Lots of great explanations and clarifications of the rules.

Awesome.  Thanks for the quick reply.

You are right on all counts MeinHerr.

Unfortunately it’s not clear in the rules, but that’s been corrected in the second edition.  The same principle applies to destoyers cancelling submarines’ abilities - once the destroyers are gone, the subs regain their abilities in the next combat round.

@WILD:

I think that if the the allies were allowed to just NCM in to take control of a fallen allied powers tt’s (collect the income) it would swing to much income to the allies and break the game. Plus if your getting paid for all those tt’s why would you Liberate your former allies capital (kinda like how Paris is now). It is better to leave things as they are and they only get paid if they liberate them from the enemy. That makes a pretty good cat & mouse game of how much tt the axis want to take vs how many of them they will be able to hold later on.

Â

If that were the case, then I feel the Axis original TTs should be worth double to Axis powers only.  Sort of like the Russian NO, but reversed.  But yes, I concur with your analysis, in-so-much in regard to Dutch/Netherlands.

I always viewed that rule as a way to not automatically give the income to England but not deny it to Japan either.  It really only plays in the Pacific campaign, as your only chance to get the income is to invest enough to push Japan out (otherwise, Japan will crush any resistance and take it.)

Ah, I recognize that philosophy:  “There are few submarine problems that can’t be resolved with a suitable application of depth charges”.

@Detuite:

Can paratroopers fly over occupied enemy tt’s and drop into a empty enemy tt.

Yes, as long as the territory being attacked is also being attacked by non-paratrooper land units.

@Detuite:

lets say you have 3 transports in a sea zone can 1 enemy fighter or 1 enemy surface ship destroy all of them on 1 attack

Yes.

Thanks Krieghund.

Planing amphibious operations vs. the US-Player at the moment.  :-D
