Crap. I just realized I have a range problem with bombing Germany.  I was planning to land at novgorod but USSR is not yet allied! If it’s OK with you, I will say I bombed Paris instead because its the only place in range without possible interceptors.

Absolutely! It is only for fun and as you have seen, it is real easy to miss things like that for me too!  8-)

Speaking of which…I am fairly certain the Flying Tiger is not allowed to leave China and land in Burma. That is what the rulebook for Pacific 1940 states and I cannot find a change in the alphas.

Hopefully I can get to this tomorrow evening with my new cord! I need to look at it all at once and figure out how I can do anything about the massive US fleet with mine so out of position given next turn.

[Guest]

I looked up the “flying tigers” issue and it is kind of fuzzy in the rulebook, but I did find apost one here somewhere in which Larry Harris himself wrote that the fling tigers have to stay in Chinese territories, unlike the land units that can go into Kwangtun and burma.  SO if you want ot, you can just move that fighter to Tsinghai with the Chinese army.  no big deal.

Oh I think the fighter can’t land in Egypt because you didn;t own it since start of your turn.

Oops…just call me rookie! Actually I knew that and do not know what I was thinking. I will place it back in S.Italy.

Well that was totally backwards  :cry:

I will wait on your casualty choice. I am not sure if it is the destroyer or damaged carrier…remember planes cannot land on a damaged carrier.

[Guest]

No scramble in z115 obviously.

In zone 81, I will take hits on the carrier first and land in Sudan
