Extreme aggression seems to be the best policy with France... Barring bad luck

Planes that are on a carrier that is sunk on the snap fire phase are lost.

I will leave the leader question to Mark.

The answer to both of your questions is yes.

Carrier planes have reduced range in landing phase (range of 1).

Pacific Rules Questions


1. Are you only able to do convoy damage up to the value the japanese get from the territories? Lets say the japanese only own Celebes in supply and got income from it this turn.
    So the U.S can only do 1 PP damage to the convoy zone?

2. How is Leader elimination in "Sea battles" working : When the last ship is destroyed in a fleet battle, is the Leader eliminated?

3.  Since all ships return to Harbors on the NCM Phase (Normal & Fortified Harbors)
   Example to this:
 
   On the next turn movement Phase the US moves a mixed fleet (carriers + battleships)  to engage a japanese fleet next to an normal harbor.
   Since normal Harbors don't protect the japanese fleets the US wants to attack that fleet.
   Do their planes get the Harbor attack Bonus? (-2DRM) Or do the planes only get the Bonus if their Surface fleets decides not to attack the japanese fleet?

1) Yes
2) we never addressed losing naval leaders - naval units and leaders can always retreat (unlike certain land scenarios)
3) Any ships in ANY harbor are subject to the air attack bonus regardless of an ensuing surface fleet engagement.

Good questions. The shock troops and winterized armor that Russia begins with are irreplaceable - you can not build more.

Only Shock troops and mountain infantry are considered to be winterized.

SNLF is the same as a paratrooper.

Let us know if you have any other questions.
