There's more, if you read page 14 you will also see that once the transports have moved or participated in combat they are done, they can't conduct Non combat moves.
Unbelievable!  Thanks for drawing this to my attention.  Pay attention, BoldFresh.
The rulebook on page 14 says when an opponent builds any surface warship in your sea zone, you have to 1) conduct combat 2) leave 3) leave, pick up units from another sea zone (not hostile), and return, or 4) leave, pick up units from another sea zone and conduct combat elsewhere.

So when a destroyer is built (in Z5, e.g.) it prevents ALL BOMBARDMENT, ALL LOADING OF UNITS, AND ALL NONCOMS FOR ALL YOUR TRANSPORTS that were in that zone for a turn.  Unbelievable.  I guess it's been a long time since I read page 14.

Oh, I see.  When you do it, it's shrewd, but if I do it, it's squandering.  I have plenty of resources to keep you guys out of Berlin for a very long time, by the way.  Longer than I need.  grin

Rules questions on my mind...

1) Do special rules apply to the Chinese fig?  Can it land on conquered territories?  Or does it behave like other figs?

2) Suppose the only way 2 figs can reach a target is by purchasing an ac to be placed in a territory adjacent to the sz being attacked.  Is it legal to buy an ac and then make an attack where the figs will land on a newly bought AC?

1) No, it cannot land on conquered territories.
2)  Yes.  And if the fighters are shot down, then you are free to place the AC somewhere else.

1)  The only special rule is that it can't leave China, even to fly out and back in on the same turn.  All other rules apply normally.

2)  Yes.

Thanks.

Ok related question.  Let's say China goes before the USA.  Can USA land fighters on territories China just captured?

It's my understanding the the USA/China turns are considered to be simultaneous.  However, since one country must go first, it is the USA players choice which is 'run' first.

No.  Both powers share a turn, so the restriction against landing air units in newly captured territories applies.

If the US gets radar, then brings an AA gun to UK, then since only one AA gun can fire at a time, which AA gun fires if Germany strategic bombs the UK?

The one with radar.  The defenders decide which one fires when there is more than one power's AA gun, so the better one will always fire.

This rule should be deleted: in real war, they were a voluntair US air corps. They were not chinese, so the rule should not include the fighter. It has absolutely no sense that the FTs, if survive J1, cannot escape to home or bomb ��� trannies

Well, the whole rule should be deleted from all the games, past, present or future,  because is a rule beyond realms of logic. Fix China for once

The US and China can attack the same territory and act as if all attacking units belong to the same power, right?

No.  The Combat Move and Conduct Combat phases for the two powers are conducted separately (in whichever order the US player desires).

Can the US and China sequentially attack the same territory in China in the same turn ?

eg. 2US bombers with paras clearing or nearly clearing Yunan followed by a Chinese attack.
