bush -> Nav Sup in non-base hexes (10/25/2016 4:09:48 PM)
I have an opponent who insists on Amphing into non-base hexes. My question is, if he brings in Nav Sup units will they still help in unloading? If yes, at the same or reduced rate? Thanks, Mike

Yes, at the same rate as the ships being used on an island assault....GP

Some people have house rules against that but I don't agree. Especially if your opponent invades an island that has no base hex. Tease and taunt him into it if you can. [8D]

I'm thinking that I forgot to land something with them...

Maybe you should try landing with the USMC or USArmy instead of the USN? Seriously - Wake is an atoll and likely has high forts. You need tanks and combat engineers to support the infantry. Tank Destroyers are also excellent when you get them. But even with a good mix of troops, if you get bad weather and a bad die roll it can still disable a lot of troops.

Only problem was that they didn't all land the same day...

And have them prepped for that location.

geofflambert -> RE: Nav Sup in non-base hexes (10/26/2016 6:23:23 PM)
As the Japanese player, after the first week or two I sometimes sacrifice prepping for location because of Allied intelligence capabilities. Like Trump, I want to be unpredictable. [:'(]

bush -> RE: Nav Sup in non-base hexes (10/27/2016 3:36:40 AM)
I felt that way also, but noticed the disabled squads and disruption went up considerably when Amphing without prepping for that base.

That bonus does not help with the battle though, whereas actual prep does.
