[Soulblighter]

I am to late. I wanted to warn you that you aren’t allowed to move back your fleet into Z6. I am willing to let you replay your allied turns, but as it stands that move is illegal.

[Soulblighter]

I figured you would know this, but then I started thinking that you might not have attacked shantung had you known this.

The fact is that the only units that can move during both the combat phase and the non combat phase are air crafts.

[Soulblighter]

@Soulblighter:

I am to late. I wanted to warn you that you aren’t allowed to move back your fleet into Z6. I am willing to let you replay your allied turns, but as it stands that move is illegal.

If you want to keep the current results, then the fleet needs to be moved back to Z18 and it needs to stay there. It can not be moved during both CM and NCM. If not, then we can discuss what other alternatives there are to resolve this situation.

[Soulblighter]

I am not sure if you read my earlier posts, but you can’t move naval units during both CM and NCM. Which means the fleet needs to be moved back to Z18. If you dislike this as it influences your other choices, then we can discuss how else to resolve the situation.

[Shin-Ji]

No, I missed all that stuff - I was trying to quickly get my turns in before I had to go get my daughter from school.

Hrm - let me think then.  That does cause a problem.

[Shin-Ji]

OK, I’ve considered it, and I’m OK with leaving them in z18.  It’s the simplest way to deal with it.

[Soulblighter]

@Shin:

OK, I’ve considered it, and I’m OK with leaving them in z18.  It’s the simplest way to deal with it.

It is the simplest way to solve things, but had you attacked shantung if you had known this. A simple yes or no will suffice.
