Title: Axis Targets clarification
Post by: HB555 on October 03, 2011, 09:04:16 PM

LW Target List
Airfield towns are not valid targets.

Manston Airfield A14
City of Weymouth 6,9,7
City of Southampton 8,10,7
City of Portsmouth 8,10,7
City of Folkestone 12,1,2
City of Dover 12,11,3
Shipping and facilities at port of Portsmouth (P95) 8,10,6
Shipping and facilities at port of Southampton (P107) 8,10,7
Shipping and facilities at port of Dover (P106) 12,11,3

Does shipping mean ships, and if so, does shipping mean fleets near those bases or does shipping mean the non moving ships at the piers, and does the term facililities refer to the actual port buildings, ie: VH, Ammo Bunkers. Fuel Bunkers, and ground ground guns?

The latter is how I see it.  The Luftwaffe was hitting targets on the coast basically to tie up RAF aircraft having to fly patrols to stop the hit and run raids, and to generally keep the folks on the coast a bit up tight.

Having been burned on this very issue once before, by that very thinking, I was hoping someone in the scenario rules department would chime in with a very definitive and exacting response, but thanks for your input.
Can't blame us for wanting it in writing... :D

OK to be clear.  Not moving shipping.  Not fleets.

Yep, that one should be in 12.11 not in 12.1.  I'll fix it in the next posting of the rules writeup.
