Two little questions of a newbie

[gladiatt]

1) What exactly does Ground attack by air ? Disruption ? fatigue ? Morale loss ??

2) Is it possible to pick up troops by Fast Transport or Sub Transport, WHEN troops are on the coast but not in a port or on a beach (in fact they are west of Rangoon from where they were just ejected a bit roughly...).

Because, i too, like Grisouille (wich name sound french...) try to defend Burma against AI....

1. Disruption (primarily)

2. I think so...I know that they can be picked up by ordinary transport.

I think so.  I haven't tried it from those particular hexes.  I recall there was a comment about air evacuation where you can use Patrol planes to do an air evacuation from coastal hexes, but it won't work from swamp coastal hexes.
