How many times can a Lend-Lease Delivery be Interdicted?


  • Let’s say a lend-lease delivery passes through three sea zones which each contain submarines of a nation at war with the sending Major Power. Do you only roll one time for Interdiction, or three? My thought is three.


  • @hbg-gw-enthusiast I believe you roll for each sea zone.

    “If the route pases through a sea zone that contains either:
    A sub… a plane on MAP… a fleet of at least 3 surface warships…
    The lend lease is subject to a convoy raiding die roll…”

    I think the “at least” under surface ships makes it once per sea zone for that, and I believe that since the sea zone is mentioned overall and not the units, it is the sea zone that matters.


  • @trig the FAQ is up, but it is stil unclear.

    Q: If lend-lease delivery passes through three sea zones which each contain submarines of a nation at war with the sending Major Power, how many times do you roll for interdiction?

    A: Three

    Does this mean you roll for each sub, or for each sea zone with a sub?

    Or, if you have two subs in one zone and one in another, what do you roll. 2 dice or 3 dice?


  • @trig “If the route pases through a sea zone that contains either:
    A sub… a plane on MAP… a fleet of at least 3 surface warships…
    The lend lease is subject to a convoy raiding die roll…” - from your post of the rules. if the route passes through the SZ with any of those: the main reference here is SZ - not multiples of units in the SZ. I believe in your example you would only roll for interdiction twice, not 3 times. each SZ is one roll.


  • @hbg-gw-enthusiast 3 SZ 3 rolls. no matter how many subs are in each SZ.


  • @theveteran That was what I said, but I would like to see an FAQ.


  • @trig eh i dont think its necessary, but sure.


  • Rule 11.4 seems clear about Interdiction. The lend-lease is subject to « a convoy raiding die » (singular).

    If the conditions are met, each Power rolls only one D6 (but repeat for each qualified seazone if needed) but there are no additional dice depending of the number of subs/MAP/warships presents in the sea zone for the purpose of this game mechanic.

    I add than once there is a successeful interdiction in any seazone, it is useless to roll the for the other zones, as the lend-lease unit is eliminated - He’s dead, Jim.


  • @noneshallpass very good! Agreed.
