16:30 That is not correct. The control of an island is not connected to victory points. Only the sinking of capital ships or the possession of airfields provide victory points. The possession of each island will give you an extra 4 reinforcement points to the 10 reinforcement points you get every round. This is wrong in the printed rulebook, where they incorrectly mention 5 reinforcement points plus 2 each for the possession of an island. The official errata indicates that it is twice the amount. For four reinforcement points you either get 4 infantry or 2 artillery or 2 AA guns or 2 supply token or 2 transports.
17:00 It is important to know that land units cannot attack airfields, because they would rather conquer than destroy them. Only air and sea units can be used to destroy enemy airfields. If you attack an island with land units, your ships and aircraft can either support your troops or damage the airfield - the latter forces the enemy to evacuate his aircraft from the island as they may not land on a damaged airfield. If there is no carrier or other airstrip within 2 spaces available, the fighters or bombers are lost.
Great tutorial! One question I have is do air units that aren’t downed in the air and sea combat phases, do they also get to contribute in the land battle?

Thanks for this, I was trying to refresh myself on the rules and completely forgot its alternating for movement.

Thanks for making these! They’ve really helped me
