Can I assume taking the inf first in Hunan and Yunan?

2 hits first round in Hunan.

[Ferrousgryphon]

Yes that’s fine. Unless you get to a high value battle you can always assume max defense per value as the game defaults too. Big naval battles or something like that then I would like to give an OOL. Thank you for asking.

Moving the American sub and destroyer from SZ35 to SZ23 is not a legal move. I’ll allow it but just wanted you to be aware of that. Until USA is at war with Japan they cannot move units into SZ touching Japanese territories. In order to get there you would have had to move through SZ34 or SZ22. It’s not a big deal though. Play on

[simon33]

I’m pretty sure the restriction is just that they can’t end turn in a SZ that is adjacent to a Japanese territory.

[Ferrousgryphon]

I just reviewed the rules. I stand corrected. In the rule book it clearly states it as you say. I had been told wrong all this time. Thanks  :-D

Scramble Orders in SZ119?

[simon33]

Scramble both planes from Scotland

[simon33]

Hold on, the fighter and TB can’t make it to SZ119. They have nowhere to land, unless I’m missing something?

[simon33]

@simon33:

Scratch that. I see you’ve bought a carrier.

[simon33]

@simon33:

Is it too late to cancel this? I’ve realised that it’s not a good option.

[Ferrousgryphon]

Absolutely! Until dice are rolled it’s never too late to change. I didn’t expect you to scramble on that attack.
