I agree with Simon about the use of US transports in the Pacific. You wipe out the Japanese navy and take back the islands and the mainland. Shuck your troops to Europe and take out Germany and Italy. Japan will be forced to surrender. You know, just like WW2. Unless the Japanese player has been smoking crack you will spend all day assaulting Tokyo while Germany makes mincemeat out of Russia and the UK.
Mixed transport clarification

Hello,
I’m the US in combat phase.
I have a transport with one french infantry on it.
Can I load one of my own infantries on that same transport and do an amphibious assault with that one guy?
The french infantry would of course stay on the transport.I thought you can’t mix nations on a single transport, but TripleA allows it and I couldn’t find it in the rulebook at first glance.
Can someone clarify?
Regards,
Simon

@koala Yes, you can use the US transport with one load space as if the French infantry was not even on it. Since the French unit is an infantry the loaded unit may be an infantry, artillery or armor.

@koala I agree with @AndrewAAGamer, there’s nothing in the rules that prevents you from doing this. Just leave the French infantry on the boat and you’ll be fine.
