Wackamatt (+13 allies) v Cow

[Cow]

Good move with Korea destroyer. I know I cannot pick up units from Japan during combat…

When I move the transports out during combat move… can they move back and pick up units?

[Whackamatt]

Nope, those transports can’t come back and load during NCM.  I’ve had to look this up before, and it’s proven useful.

Per the rule book, Europe 2nd Edition, Page 14

"If you are sharing a sea zone with surface warships (not
submarines and/or transports) belonging to a power with
which you are at war, this situation requires you to do one
of the following:

• Remain in the sea zone and conduct combat,

• Leave the sea zone, load units if desired, and conduct
combat elsewhere,

• Leave the sea zone, load units, and return to the same
sea zone to conduct combat (you can’t load units while
in a hostile sea zone), or

• Leave the sea zone and conduct no combat.

Once these sea units have moved and/or participated in
combat, they can’t move or participate in the Noncombat
Move phase of the turn."

[Cow]

That is a good move.

[Cow]

Guess I am not kicking you out of Korea… at least not for 3 rounds if I really dedicate myself to it, lol.

During combat I forgot what SZ Hawaii and Java were, clicked no attack transport for both of them by accident.

I did this in order to bombard java because taking island more important than transport kill.

[Cow]

I do not really mind if you object.

A few more rounds in the Pacific with USA and you got me there. I am not so sure how you plan to deal with germany.
