Thats got the problem of not relating to construction.
The IC might not even be in use. (Or might be receving material via.)
But this is a classic design for effect... the USA should not be able to ignore U-boats sitting off the Eastern Sea-board. There was a lot of American shipping that went up and down the US coast, and around into the Gulf of Mexico.

Yeah. This then comes to my other idea of convoy raids hitting commerical shippping. In which case territories without IC can be hit too, but as 50% effectiveness or something.

Although if you say IPC are purely war capacity/resources then this wouldn't be.
Like you could say US can go without Rhone wines for now.

I guess a simple solution would be limit ships to one sea zone movement, instead of two.

But would that not ruin the game in the Pacific to some degree...?

Shipping of this era was not so slow. They could get accross the Atlantic pretty quick.


Besides, as abstract as Axis and Allies is, it is more realistic to have IPC loss rather than entire armoured corps sunk during transit.
