[OwenToo]

for my fighter that moved too far on turn 1, let’s assume that he stopped in Persia on turn one. He should have been able to attack as he did in turn 2 and then land in Egypt, correct?

[OwenToo]

Hmmm, I guess that wasn’t legal either. If you want to edit him back to Persia before your turn, you may do so. We will assume he attacked from India with his fellow fliers on turn 2.

[farmboy]

I might not understand this as I’m not quite clear on which attack you mean. I assume you mean Iraq? One issue is that a fighter can’t land in Persia on turn 1 because you can’t land on a friendly neutral in the same turn that you captured it (just in case you don’t know, an important exception are the Dutch territories where you don’t need to land units to land air. They are considered an ally). But ignoring that, a fighter starting from Persia could hit Iraq and land in Egypt. Once a neutral is attacked, it is involved in the war and it can be flown over.

[farmboy]

I think I understand now. Your fighter was in Transjordan. yeah it can’t reach there from India but we can just assume it stayed in India.

[farmboy]

In which case, it should be in Persia, not Egypt.

[OwenToo]

Correct

@OwenToo:

Correct

Sorry. Realized after that I just repeated what you had said. Also, forgot to edit the fighter back to Persia, so I reposted with the edit.

[farmboy]

just realized that despite discussing that the fighter had to move to Persia, I kept assuming it was in Egypt while planning my turn. Sigh.

I noticed that you put an ANZAC destroyer in Caroline Islands and I thought you might be assuming that that would block the loading of transports. It actually doesn’t effect the country that declares war on the turn that war is declared. So in any sea zone that becomes contested as a result of a country declaring war, that country is still allowed to load transports.

The rules cover this on page 12 in the Declaring War box: “Once a state of war is entered into, all territories and sea zones controlled by or containing units belonging to the power or powers on which you declared war instantly become hostile to your units, and the normal restrictions of moving into or through hostile spaces apply, with one exception. During your Combat Move phase in which you entered into a state of war, your transports that are already in sea zones that have just become hostile may be loaded in those sea zones (but not in other hostile sea zones). In effect, transports may be loaded in their initial sea zones for amphibious assaults before war is declared, while the sea zone is still friendly.”

An allied tactic is sometimes to move UK naval into sea zones with Japanese transports and then have ANZAC declare war after. Because it wasn’t Japan that declared war, when it comes to its turn it is already at war and therefore cannot load transports. This is why I kept the transports loaded that were closer to the UK and wasn’t worried about the Caroline Islands.

Anyway, I thought I would give you a heads up in case you misunderstood that and would want to edit your ANZAC NCMs. Of course, I might be misunderstanding what your intentions are here too.
