Google and the search have outsmarted me and no doubt this is on oage 104 of the faq,

Just wondering if I can attack out of a contested zone or if I am stuck there?

As long as you are moving into another contested territory containing one of your country’s units (that had been there since the start of your turn), you can.

Thank you! I saw that sentence but wasn’t completely sure that it implied what you said.

@superbattleshipyamato

From the official FAQ:

"Page 14, Phase 1: Purchase and Repair Units, Step 1: Order Units and Repair Battleships: The
second sentence of the second paragraph should read “During this phase, your damaged battleships can be repaired, but only if they are in sea zones that have a naval base that is controlled by either you or a friendly power.”

@ragnell804 All hits must be applied. The transport is destroyed. If the Ottomans had scored only 1 hit, the Italians could have broken off the attack and saved the transport, at least for the time being.

@Carolina:

Just adding to clarifications, and please check out the FAQ and errata.

Combat on land is just one round and mandatory. However in a territory that is contested, combat is optional (for all players - even to players that just moved into that territory).
Combat at sea is optional and can be multiple rounds (active player’s choice).
Air units are free to move to any territory, unlike land units that have movement restrictions when starting in a contested territory.

The Russian Revolution procedure may not be entirely clear - please check out other posts - or feel free to ask any questions. (BTW - Big fan here too).

Thanks.
If Germany and France are in a contested territory and Great Britain enters that territory for the 1st time I thought they HAD TO FIGHT.?

EDIT: I reread that part in the manual and it’s clear you are right. I gotta slow down when reading

There is no such thing as a contested sea zone.

Personally, I don’t think this should even occur. One round of sea combat only; if the defender survives the attacker must retreat (and can still do so even after a victory).

I can understand the logic behind a land force not being allowed to retreat after a victory - they have to consolidate their hold over the conquered tt.

But why would ships remain behind in an empty sea zone, especially if they can retreat back into a friendly port for repairs and/or reinforcements from newly launched ships? Unless they wish to launch amphibious assault or enact USW why should they be obliged to remain behind and quite possibly become sitting ducks for enemy fleets? A case of being punished for success?

The anomaly occurs when a player places new ships into a sea zone occupied by enemy fleet. Should a battle immediately occur? Or should the new ships only be “launched” in his next movement/combat cycle?

Thanks to work and other commitments, I didn’t get to solo a couple of turns until last night. I tried hitting Serbia with a small army, 4 Inf and 1 Art (I think). I did eventually win it on turn 2, but it freed up more troops to hit Romania with, which I managed to conquer turn 1, although Russia immediately contested it, but not in enough force to take it back, as it had to guard against my massive AH army in Galicia that I left poised to exploit any opening in Russia’s defenses left by their moves in reaction to the fall of Romania (yes I know I was playing both sides).
