Axis & Allies War at Sea: Task Force preview, Page 3

The biggest disappointment is the continued lack of support from the Armee de l’Air. France remains the only navy without fighter cover or bomber support, although they gain two battleships and a submarine.

   Great article Paul. Though I don’t play WaS (as you now), the system looks very interesting. Too bad I don’t have the time or the money to play both AAM and WaS!

   Two quick points:

   The U-66 speed of 2 is errata. It should be speed 1.

   A range-1 attack is really 5,000 yards, if you assume that you’re shooting from the center of your sector to the center of the adjoining sector.

   Thanks for the review!

   what is errata?

   And how do people find all the types of games and then get them to test them out to make posts like this? Seems like it would be a big job XD

   Great work tho :D I love WAS/TF and AAM!

   Errata are corrections; including deletions or additions to the rules of the game, and /or capabilities of the games’s units

   The French actually had a naval air force, the Aeronavale, which operated shore based fighters and torpedo bombers as well as aircraft aboard the carrier Bearn and a seaplane carrier. There is no reason why FRench ships would not have aerial support
