Title: Air Rules
Post by: vonSchliefen on June 29, 2005, 12:54:35 PM

Hi!  Awesome game!  One question came up last weekend:
If I strategically move my fighter - can I conduct combat with it in the mechanized movement phase?

"(and any units for that matter) that move strategically can not participate in combat during the mechanized phase." by this you mean if a unit (tank, plane, ect) moves statigicly they can not participate in any mech combat?  This is my understanding.

Per the Mechanized Phase rules:

"Mechanized units may either move into a friendly territory or into an enemy owned territory (combat) during the mechanized movement phase.  Mechanized units may not move into combat by moving into enemy owned territory if 1) It is a Winter turn in a non-Arid/Desert territory; 2) The mechanized unit was landed as part of an amphibious assault on the general movement phase; 3) The mechanized unit was moved via strategic movement during the general movement phase. Mechanized units may still move into friendly owned territories during these conditions on the mechanized phase – just not into enemy owned territories and into combat."

Cheers,
Mark
