YOU ARE SUCH A FREAKING LIAR!!!
You write (or don’t write) things specially to be confusing and leave option out. Now, as tourney ruler, I would be so eager to know your ruling on this…
1. You didn’t wrote down your NCM
@Cmdr:
USA:
[…]
NCM: Map
[…]
2. You never write where units come from, for attacks. Such behavior may cause confusion in many situation (as this one).
3. You say :
@Cmdr:
2 Infantry, 2 Artillery could make it from the island group. There were transports there, at least, on the map you gave me.
[…]
Which clearly indicates units where on the island, not kept aboard transports.
4. Lookind at the map, how US troops are placed, over the plane on the island, apart from transport shows those units are on the island, not in transports.
5. With a clear threat from Japan (33CV/16HP versus 20CV/7HP for USA), I can’t believe you planned to leave those units in the transports to a sure death at next Japan’s turn.
6. During your whole argument you talk about “transports” only… assuming ground troops are safe on the island.
7. THE BEAUTY NOW :
@Cmdr:
[…]
You left the transports, so on my turn, I assumed they were not killed. Since it is legal for you to withdraw attacking forces without killing the transports (that are units that must be hit to be destroyed, they just cannot defend themselves) then I figured you had done that. It certainly would have a strategic purpose, as it moves the units off islands you might want.
HAHAHAHA!
See, there’s NOTHING suggesting those units could have been left in the transports… and yet, it’s ONLY AFTER I proved illegal to load in hostile sea zone that you claim there were aboard transports.
Bottom line, your oppinion will flipflop so you have to advantage… and if you get caught (as now) you’ll do any funny explanation to have a way out.
