Noob alert- major noob question here.

thank you Krieghund,

once again you have answered my rules questions within a day of posting them.  you are awesome!

But keep in mind that a transport can pick up troops from different zones for unloading at a common departure point.  Sometimes this is overlooked. :wink:

If IC’s were limited, then abandoning Karelia may indeed be a viable strat (especially if SBR’s were limitted to IPC value of the territory as well).

But, without IC restrictions, the only difference between Russia standing her ground in Karelia and standing her ground in Moscow is that… if they fail in Karelia they have ONE MORE SHOT at holding against Germany, with a UK and possibly a US counter-attack in Karelia to protect them in the interim.

@Darrigaaz:

leaving caucasus empty and only two infantry on Russia.

Why would anyone leave Causasus (or any other buffer zone) 100% empty and allow a blitz to Russia? Even ONE IF will cause ANY German advance to stop in Caucasus (sp?)…

EDIT: Didn’t see Hurkly’s reply further down in the thread… :lol:

In 2nd it must be in the same seazone.

There is a chat feature, asnd the turns are made instantly, games take anywhere from 30 min. to 3 Hours.

You can get up to five players in a game.

It has been awhile since I was on the Zone, but there were always between 30 and 100 people there when I looked. Games were fairly easy to get. The best way to insure you get games is to join an online club like Spring1942.

I would have to say that it is illegal. You must conduct all your combat movement in one turn. You can´t load the tr with inf as part of your combat move because you don´t know that your tr won´t be destoyed in the sea battle (however unlikely it may be).
Remember, the sea combat precedes the loading of the tr, which means the loading of the tr has to be conducted on the next move.

I’m not sure if that was what he meant, that was what I understood however as silly as it sounds. I think you covered it as best as it could be covered Meijing.
