I dont understand how it is possible, but you cant load transports in a hostile seazone. I was looking at politics to be sure, seeing you only attacked philipines, and I thought thats how you managed to load the transports. But I saw that uk/anzac was also in war, and that means no loading of transports. So philipines should still be american. Perhaps I am mistaken, but reasonably sure about this. Your free to ask anyone about this.

[Talleyrand19]

I was going by the rule that ships can leave a hostile sea zone during their combat move phase, which is in the rulebook…however if a loaded transport cannot be part of this then I have to redo my turn entirely, it obviously changes what I would have done

[Talleyrand19]

I’m finding some reading that states I actually can do it, so I’m not sure. I put a question up on the forums to find out the answer. If I am not allowed to do that, then I will replay the Japanese turn.

[Talleyrand19]

Found this here…sounds like it IS a loophole and what I did was legal. But we can still wait to see what some people say.

http://www.wizards.com/\AvalonHill\rules\AA Pacific 1940 FAQ_VER1.pdf

“Important exception � During the combat movement phase following the announced declaration of war,
transports already in sea zones that have just become hostile may be loaded in those sea zones (but not
in other hostile sea zones). This may occur only during the first Combat Move phase following the
announced declaration of war. Once that initial combat movement phase is over, normal transport
loading restrictions apply.”

[cds]

:-D

The rule of leaving a hostile seazone and getting units elsewhere is possible, but you didnt had units nearby, so it was only possible to load them at kwangsi. Also you didnt have enough movement to leave the seazone and come back and move again. So its impossible to load them from kwangsi in my opinion. The other rule you are mentioning, Ive never heard of. Lets find out what the rules are, before continue.

[Talleyrand19]

Read page 11, in the declaring of war section, it says you can load transports that turn as the one exception to the normal rules. Looks like it is allowed.

[Talleyrand19]

I should’ve mentioned it’s page 11 of Pacific rules, 2nd ed*

[cds]

Its very strange but I have never heard of this rule before, since when does this rule exist. I have posted in the same topic as you did, not questioning your point, but want to have some idea of what I am up against if they start changing rules. I still believe it shouldnt be possible to load or unload them, without doing battle. Think its a strange exception, because like someone else already mentions in the topic you can by pass this by pre loading (keep units on board of trn). Its a matter of planning, but this is just weird because it eliminates the possibilities for Allies by preventing you from attacking this way. Hope you see my point.

[Talleyrand19]

By preloading it makes my plan pretty obvious, so you can look at it both ways…I look at it as you load up, declare war, and sail away in one motion…we can see if we get a few more responses.

[Talleyrand19]

It’s also on page 12 of the Europe rules as an exception.

@Talleyrand19:

Like its not obvious what you are going to do  :-o  :wink: Clearly with transports you are going to attempt amphibious landings, where that doesnt matter. Its just that this has always been a nice way to prevent someone from making attacks if the destroyer was there. Ill ask a moderator what he knows about this.
