By that standard no ncm phase would exist except air trying to land.  :roll:

There have been other moves in the cm phase that I haven’t kicked up a fuss about. I only called out this one because I don’t want the wrong precedent set. Look at it from another perspective. Say UK moved it’s fleet to sz91 in the cm phase at the same time that an attack was made on ships in sz112. If I make my scramble and any subsequent loss decisions based in part on what that fleet in sz91, I want to know that it’s going to stay there and it’s not going to suddenly be in sz109 instead.

Looking at it from that perspective, Germany can argue that it chose to scramble on the basis that the UK fleet wasn’t moving to Sz91 or Sz112, and was staying in position.

Hence why NCM’s done at the same time as combat are illegal.

#1. I will make sure I don’t make NCM’s at the same time as CM
#2. Neither party should base their strategy off of “illegal maneuvers” observed on the board.

You mean the “I have to pervert the game to have a chance at winning so I’m running the same old cheap script strategy war machine?”

Yeah, it’s weak, and we’re still going to stomp you, like we’ve stomped all your little friends in Denver.

Chop Chop Germany, you’re up!

Hey, Germany, I attacked your DD with my sub.

My sub hit and killed your dd. Your DD missed.  However, I accidentally clicked no scram……

Please fell free to roll 2ftrs, 1 tacb here… assuming you scram.  :-P

[seth4god]

Can I ask why my aircraft didn’t scramble?

[Gargantua]

They would have obviously scrambled. That was the intent.
