Sea Units moving out of contested zones

Control of the island doesn’t change if it’s a tie.

Thanx, was a little fuzzy in the rules on that one, but clear as a bell now :-D

Check pages 4 and 5 of the rulebook.

It’s a free shot, just as ships bombarding islands are free shots.  Artillery can only be hit during the Attack Land Units step.

Not during the regular movement phase.

If you want to during the reinforcement phase you have to pay supplies at your base depending on which sector on your side of the board (shown on the gameboard) you want to place the ships. This is called Rapid Deploy.

Supplies are for – building airfields, repairing airfields, repairing ships in the damage area of your base and for rapid deployment.

:-D Thanks. I guess I’m getting the hang of this game!

I like Guadalcanal too. I like BOTB better but this one is pretty tasty too.

Me too.  We were using one supply token for every ship sent and only sending them during the resupply phase.  We were spending huge amounts of money getting ships onto the board.  No wonder our game was dragging on way past turn five.
