14L G40 JuanSpain (+18) vs Gamerman01 (x) game 2

You are testing my benevolence….

I’ll allow it even though it was a mistake, you rolled several battles after it, and even though it would mean you lose a fighter due to your mistake.

Since you have been so friendly, and this is not a tournament game…
A lot of players wouldn’t allow it though.

Triple A doesn’t let Japan fly over UK when not at war, but there is no rule against that.  I had to edit to force Triple A to let me move fighter/tac over Shan, which is a legal move.

Glad to help -

By the way, the reason is because the UK is at war with Germany (so UK is not a neutral power)

UK/ANZ/USA can’t fly over Chinese territories without declaring war on Japan because it is a special rule, that Japan considers this an act of war.

But UK can fly over Japanese territories and Japan can fly over UK/ANZ territories without being at war with each other,because neither power is neutral (even though they are not at war with one another).

Programmer of Triple A was confused about this rule when he programmed it, but has since agreed that it is wrong (is about the 11th * down, if you go to Help->Game Notes)

If you haven’t read the game notes before, you probably should read them now  :-)

You also forgot to give yourself +2 IPC’s for Brazil.  I edited for it.
