Actually, this was teh thread that started teh whole thing that led to LHTR 1.3. It was about using friendly ships that were already in an enemy occupied sea zone as fodder for your attack on those enemy ships.
Under the new LHTR that came out of this, the Allies can NOT use those US ships that are already in SZ59 as fodder for a UK attack on the Japan ships in SZ59.
This became the “Multinational Forces on Attack” thread.
