Simultaneous turns

Each Zug represents 2 minutes of real action; a player may move any or all of his blocks the distance they could cover in 2 minutes. Once in contact, Züge are played singly in the order: simultaneous movement, fire effect assessed for one side then the other, close combat decided, losses applied by exchanging or removing blocks. When forces are far apart several Züge may be played at once.

Beide Parteien machen ihre Bewegungen gleichzeitig ; wenn diese geschehen, wird die Wirkung des Feuergewehrs erst auf einer, dann auf der andern Seite veranschlagt, der Erfolg der Angriffe mit der blanken Waffe entscheiden

All players move their aircraft in the same phase; any number may pass through or share hexes (optional collision rule). Fire is resolved in any order but damage only takes effect in the damage phase, so an aircraft destroyed that turn can still fire.

All fire is simultaneous. Damage does not take effect until the end of the damage phase.

The German player resolves shots first, then the British, but damage effects are not applied until after the British have fired. A captain ability (Fighter) can make his ship's hits take effect immediately.

Although the German player must resolve his shots first, the effects of all shooting are not applied until after the British player fires.

After each pair of half-moves, both sides fire; damage is then applied, with ship status adjusted at turn end.

4- Both fire

The turn sequence header states that all movement is simultaneous; players announce attempted advances to contact/charges during the movement phase. The author's afterthoughts concede it was more ambition than practical reality and suggest IGOUGO or card-driven sequences today.

ORDER OF PLAY IN A TURN (ALL MOVEMENT IS SIMULTANEOUS)

1 compulsory retreats/routs from last turn; 2 morale effects of these; 3 firing; 4 allocate Command Points and move commanders/couriers; 5 movement with declared advances to contact; 6 combat; 7 units that did not move redress ranks by training.

ORDER OF PLAY IN A TURN (All Movement is Simultaneous)

All fire and movement are simultaneous except as modified by partial fire, morale effects and orders. Casualties caused by fire are only removed after the target has returned fire, so units that are hit still shoot back that turn.

All fire and movement are simultaneous except as affected by partial fire, morale effects and orders. All casualties caused by fire are removed after they return fire (if they can).

During Missile and Melee phases casualties are marked with Blood or Raven tokens but not removed, so wounded figures still attack. Wounds are applied in the End of Turn phase.

During the Missile and Melee phases, mark any casualties as they occur but do not remove them yet, as they may still act until the End of Turn phase.

Duel moves represent 30 seconds; fleet moves represent two and a half minutes; strategic move lengths are set by the umpire in hours. After both moves are plotted, stencils or ships are placed at the new positions and each side's gun fire for the move is scored, then the next moves are written.

used upon the board during the progress of the game to indicate the simultaneous positions of the vessels

Moves are simultaneous (sometimes in simultaneous fractions measured from the bows), and at the end of each move big guns fire in the order tickets were dropped; a disabled gun may not return fire and a ship sunk before its torpedo is scored cannot score it.

7. Moves must be simultaneous.
