Mobilzation question

@Battlingmaxo: as an aside abattlemap is incorrect on  AA50 42 setup….it lists dd and trn for sz1; game lists ca and dd I read from my setup card: 1 Cruiser, 1 Transport for SZ 1 in the 42 szenario. Anyway the setup of ABattlemap AA50 42 setup is wrong in SZ1. I added this issue to the Modules-thread. Thank you!

It depends on whether or not the defending subs get a Surprise Strike.  If the do, they will still fire if they’re hit by the attacker’s Surprise Strike.  If they don’t, they’ll be removed before they can fire. This is a change from Revised.  In Revised, subs always fired at the same point in the combat sequence.  The difference the presence of enemy destroyers made was when the casualties were removed.  In Anniversary, subs actually fire at different points in the combat sequence depending on whether or not there are enemy destroyers.

@Seidelin: 1. German troops in Belarus are attacked by 3 infantry from Russia and a fighter from Karelia. After the first round of combat are the troops allowed to retreat to Karelia? No. @Seidelin: 2. And same question if fighter came from Finland through Karelia? No. @Seidelin: 3. Can you retreat into a just captured territory? Only if that territory was captured by a blitzing tank that moved into the battle being retreated from.  Blitzed territories change ownership immediately. @Seidelin: I mean if Ukraine is just conquered and attack in East Poland with some infantry from Poland and a fighter that attacked after flying over Ukraine. Are you then allowed to retreat to Ukraine? No. @Seidelin: As I read the rules on page 19 all these should be allowed, since the rules say that for Sea units the zone must have been friendly since the start of the turn. The rules say this: Move all attacking land and sea units in that combat on the battle board to a single adjacent friendly space from which at least one of the attacking units moved. The “attacking units” in this case refers to the land or sea units that are being moved.  It doesn’t include any air units, as they are not being moved at this point.  Air unit movement does not provide a retreat route.  This isn’t the best wording, so maybe an FAQ entry is called for.

You have to wait until the Collect Income phase.

Attention Japan! Attention Japan! The U.S are going to attack you! Attention Germany… Move along there is nothing to see here :mrgreen:

Opps for got the link. http://www.uboat.net/fates/losses/cause.htm

@Sgt.: But, can you move a fighter in non-combat to a territory which borders a seazone with a newly built carrier and have it land on said carrier? I’m guessing not. You’re guessing correctly.  The fighter must end its movement in the sea zone in order to land on the carrier.

Woo hoo! Finally got one right (before Krieghund!!!).
