Question about using a friendly transport

[falconrider]

I’ve been playing that if a friendly transport is adjacent to both the territory you start in and where you get off that you can do it all in the 1 turn.  Eg.  I have the German transport in the mediterranean and i can move the Italian troops in the same turn from Italy onto the transport and into Libya using it as a bridge.  A friend seems to think you must wait until your next Italian turn to move them from the transport into Libya.  I know if the transport has to move then you must wait until the next turn.  Am i correct that you can use a friendly transport as a bridge?

No, you can’t.  The transport has to move on the owning player’s turn, even if it’s just crossing the sea zone it’s in without leaving it.

Concur.  Pain in the arse, but correct.

Thanks for that, yes is a pain in the rear.

Remember though, with house rules you can do whatever you want!
