I seem to recall that after the Axis intervened in Tunisia and airlifted troops, that they were only able to get in about 1,000 troops per day. It seems that...
Forgive my ignorance, but I have a game design (not a rule) question. In AWAW, both Russia and Germany have to research "heavy armor" before they can...
Bruce, I think you will find your answer in a favorite quote I have heard attributed to Stalin. When asked whether quality or quantity were most important, he...
The value of the armor units in not related to the weight of the tanks, rather the firepower of the unit. By 1944, one PanzerDiv has about 2 armored batallions...
Do DDs and CAs, once sunk, simply go back into the allowable builds in the same way as do transports, or are they removed from the game in the way that named...
DD's and CA's can be used over an over again, so yes you can just through them back into the allowable builds. However some of us, especially when using...
You can put them in the allowable builds, though most of us like to keep all ships that we sink as "trophies" somewhere on the table, and there are plenty of...

Situation: A task force in Gibraltar sails to intercept Italian NRs. A non-TF group of slower battleships also want to try to intercept. However, rule 22.14 C...
They're not really "allowable builds" - that implies there is a force pool with an upper limit. They're just dead, exactly the way named ships are. There are...

If subs intercept a fleet and fire at it. Can the fleet fire back? Does all it's units fire back? The planes on the CV's cannot fire back is this correct? ...
... No. ... Yes. But also note: 42.334 NAVAL UNITS: Fleet (destroyer, cruiser, named capital ships) and carrier (CVE, CVL, CV, CVB) units do not have force...
... Correct. If more than one naval force wants to intercept *fromt* the *same* base, each naval force must be a TF. ... Correct. A non-TF naval force can...
... No. The fleet's defense is represented by the defensive modifiers. On a modified die roll of 2 or lower, the sub is eliminated (refer to the sub attack...
Howdy, we just want to confirm something which seems wierd to us and ask another question also. In our current game situation, Britain and the US hold Bagdad, ...
Why do you use the term "interpretation"? I think 33.4723 is pretty clear. We have this exact situation in our current game, and you are right in thinking...

... pretty clear. ... right in ... Basra. "interpretation" -- how we assigned meaning to words when we read them. I guess we "interpreted" correctly. What is...
I reserve the use of the term "interpretation" when there is some ambiguity or room for differing views of what a rule says. Here the rule is clear (I think)....

Can anyone point me to a rule that explains the consequences of an abort result in air combat. Rule 19 includes no explanation. I am trying to determine...
... I think that's because there is no general rule. The effects of an "abort" are different depending on whether we're talking counterair, land based air in...
... It means that factor/squadron cannot do anything else that 'round' but may, if there are additional round, fully participate in such subsequent rounds. ...
Of course, immediately after I clicked 'send', I remembered that these two portions are not quite correct: ... For attacking air units, the effects of air...
Thanx Don! I didn't ask the question, but I was always a little unclear about that rule. Had to keep looking it up. Now I understand it. Jack Coomes ... From:...

Thank you very much for your previous answers. Here are some follow up questions. During a counter air mission does each side keep track of abort results from...
