Antholin vs. Stalingradski Game One
-
Yes - SZ37 is ok for you to move into, if you have eligible movement left.
Yes, battleships can move through SZ35 when you’re not at war (or even if you were - no surface ships there).
And on IC placements, a 2 or 3 IPC (or more + non-island) territory can take an IC. Majors are very limited now… Japan can only build a major on Korea, and everything else is limited to a minor. So, the Mancurian IC will always be limited to a production of 3 units.
U.S.!

Sorry, the map for continued combat.
-
Units adjusted & placed, all non-com done. Germany collects 54 IPC’s at turn 3 end. Thus Germany thrust into bloody conflict by their unyielding Italian allies.
USSR…
-
I was just checking the map, and it appears that my placements were not saved. I have revised the map, and it now shows my 10 Infantry placement in Germany, along with 3 U-boats in SZ105, and 1 Destroyer in SZ93.
I am sorry for the confusion.
-
J - SZ109 is protected by an airbase - I could have scrambled 3 fighters into the SZ. Based on what you brought, I would have. All the rest of the battles should stay as they are, but please redo SZ109. You’ll need to bring enough stuff to make sure I don’t want to scramble… :)
-
I’m sorry about that. I had it stuck in my head that you could only scramble if I had brought in some air power of my own. However, I had already committed the Luftwaffe to Eastern front actions, and its too late to redo those. So, scramble away and I’ll commit with what I had originally.
Again, I apologize for that. Now the scramble rules will be aptly applied to my future moves.
-
Here is the combat for SZ109 with your 3 scrambled Fighters, along with the Destroyer. I have the Cruiser & 1 U-boat.

I’m not sure what unit you want to lose, as it can be either a Fighter or the Destroyer, since my Cruiser made the hit. Just let me know and I can adjust the map accordingly.
-
J - I’d rather not have you lose units, to be honest. It seems more realistic that you wouldn’t have fought that fight at all.
It’s nice of you, but commit the units to the Eastern front and call off the other fight. I’m also ok if you pull some units from the Ost Front and commit them to SZ109…
