Nice job hitting hard with Italy, Hopefully I’ll get my luck in the big battle:) I’m not frustrated, just trying something bold.

Well, I can see where my luck is going again….I’ll keep this going, cause in two rounds we’ll see if this is over. I should have sent 3 planes, but I didn’t expect a 3 round battle it won’t happen again.

I’ll need scrambling orders for Z39. I intend to take Ceylon by amphibious assault with an attack from all ships and Planes from Z80. That will be 2DD, 1Cru, 1BB, 2Car, 1Fgt, 3Tac.

[JamesAleman]

no scramble, although it typically comes after combat moves.

[Nothing to see here]

Actually I’m not sure anymore about Ceylon. I think you cannot pass throug a seazone in which a seabattle happens. Since I’d rather take Sumatra if I have to choose I won’t make the attack.

[JamesAleman]

You are good, scramble does not occur until after the combat move phase. Nothing blocks you from moving to Sumatra

[Nothing to see here]

Well theres still a Combat ocurring even if I win bydefault against the transporters or doesn’t that count since they don’t make it a hostile sea zone?
Anyway I’m sorry Germany 21 will hae to wait till tomorrow since it’s pretty late over here and I want to go to sleep.

[JamesAleman]

It does not become a hostile sea zone until after the combat move. At the beginning of conduct combat, thats when the sea zone could become hostile, either way, I am not likely to scramble.

[Nothing to see here]

I reread the part of the rules that deals with Combat moves and friendly and hostile seazones and I think you are right. I always thought you couldn’t cross through a seazone during combat move and simultaneously attack transports or submarines in the same seazone.
In that case I’ll probably attack the seazone and take Ceylon but I won’ take te whole fleet so maybe you’ll scramble. I’m starting on Germany 21 now.
