Couple of notes:
All the units are British. There is no difference between UK Europe units and UK Pacific units. That is why they move and attack together. Each UK capital can ONLY collect money from and build on their side of the board territories (Exceptions: West India is Pacific Territory - West Canada is Europe Territory). For example; If India (Calcutta) is taken and West India is taken by the Axis and then UK Europe takes West India back they do not collect for it because it is a Pacific Territory. Other Allies taking West India back could collect for it. Also, if for some reason Borneo is still under British control with India captured UK Europe may not build any infrastructure there because it is a Pacific Territory and Europe money.Retreat question[Please Help in the middle of a game]

This may seem like a simple question,but i have not seen it addressed anywhere. Can a player retreat before any round of combat occurs,basicly skipping steps 1 thru 4 and going directly to step 5 in the combat sequence? I have a friend who,after seeing his other battles go down so so, wants to forgo or retreat his last battle with out conducting any round of attack. Incidently we are playing AAA50, but would like to know if this is the same for all versions.Please help Kreig you are the only one he will listen to!

Welcome, indignation!
Retreating is done at the end of a combat round. You can’t skip the prior steps and go straight to retreating, so you must fight at least one round of each declared battle. It’s the same in all versions.
However, in AA42, AA50, and AA40, attacking (and defending) subs may avoid fighting by submerging at the beginning of the first round if there are no opposing destroyers.
