By the same extension, is it considered gamey to use GD air units from Pescadores? (The tiny island between Taiwan and China)

So the consensus is that we can't change the HQ on Para to General Defense after all? In my game, Para is set to the 5th Fleet.

Does anyone have a final answer to the above? Qball--Excellent topic and Thread. Thanks.

If the Fort on Para is now 5th Fleet, you can still do this to change the HQ:

1. Get a small unit from the Home Islands, a cheap PP spend unit; one of the AA units will do. Change the HQ to a non-restricted one.
2. Move it to Para
3. Change the HQ of the unit BACK to General Defense
4. NOW you can change the HQ of the base to General Defense

Try that, see if it works. It should.

NOTE: This tactic should NOT be abused to change far away bases to Restricted Commands! Anything outside the Kuriles or Okinawa should be considered gamey IMO

No, as previously discussed in this thread, this doesn't work as of patch 3.

AIR HQ: The problem I found is that the Air HQs with 5 radius in the Home Islands have Motorized Support....so they can't be airlifted in whole. The Air Flotilla HQs, though, can, but only have a radius of one.

Airlifting a complete air HQ
1) Airlift airmobile part
2) send remnant to tokyo
3) disband remnant
4) set main unit to receive replacement
4)
