Quick Question

From the rulebook:

“New Chinese units can be mobilized on any Chinese territory that is controlled by China, including those captured in the current turn.”

Although US supplies the Artillery, it is considered to be Chinese.

HTH :-)

@wittmann:

No YG. There are no Naval or Air Base changes from First to Second.

Thanks.

@Gragor:

Hey, Just wondering if you have a fighter on an AC and say you move that fighter to the adjacent sea zone. do you need to count one movement point to take off from the AC?

Aircraft movement is only counted when an aircraft crosses a map border:

Territory to Territory
Seazone to Seazone
Seazone to Territory
Seazone to Island

It’s one move to the adjacent seazone from a carrier seazone, but there is no movement point for “taking off”.  You may consider your planes as already/always in the air on your turn or an enemies turn (but not in the air on an allies turn - that’s when they’re cargo).

@Mysterious:

Are Cruisers able to bombard without the presence of a Battleship?

Yes

thanks, the Rule book makes it confusing; it implies you have to use the buddy system with its ridiculous examples.

We have always just had it where the person chose what to lose, I guess we need to change that in my group. The reason was we just rolled dice and when ones came up the person who was hit just took what they wanted to lose.

yes.  they can disappear in to the dark deep sea and only the almighty destroyer can find them.

There are rules that list what happens when a facility becomes inoperable. losing their AA ability isn’t on the list, they still have it.

Yes, Air and ground units can kill each other.  You have to understand that an Infantry unit contains infantry and all the support units that go with it.  Some of the support units will include AA units.  Axis and Allies is set up to be a big picture view of the war, not as much detail as you might imagine.  I can understand why it becomes confusing when we have artillery, armor and infantry represented seperately.  In earlier games, we didn’t have arty and it was understood they were part of the other manuver units.

Enjoy the game!
