Rule 14A1: Augmenting of existing Airfields

Question:
In a hex that has a 3-capacity airfield can three construction units each augment the airfield at the same time? In is way the 3-capacity airfield goes from a capacity of 3 to 12 in one construction cycle.

Answer:
No, Rule 14A1 states that engineers can augment an existing airfields capacity by 3. In your example, the engineers are clearly augmenting the airfield by more than 3 (by 9, in fact) and this is illegal. No matter how many engineers are present, they may only augment an airfield’s capacity by 3 in anyone turn.

Rule 14A1: Combining Construction Units

Question:
Can four construction units build a 12-capacity airfield in the same hex at the same time? Each unit builds a 3- capacity airfield.

Answer:

No, Rule 14A1 states that you can’t build a permanent airfield in a hex that contains a permanent airfield. This includes a permanent airfield under construction, so once you start build a permanent airfield in a hex you cannot start building others there. Also note that augmenting a permanent airfield is a different concept than building a permanent airfield even though both use very similar procedures. For clarity, when the rule says “A construction unit may augment (increase) the capacity of an existing permanent airfield”, “existing” is meant to mean that the airfield has completed construction.

Also note that this answer does mean you cannot build two or more forts in the same hex at the same time.
