Oh, I see what you are saying, can you retreat to sz from which only a trn came.  Hmmm… does the rule say from whence only combat units came?  have to look.

[gamerman01]

I looked.  It doesn’t.

[Karl7]

Yeah, it doesn’t.  Although I suppose according to theory, you should be able to retreat to a sz from whence a unit came that was able to initiate combat, which would not be a trn.  But hopefully Krieghund will say.

[gamerman01]

Well, I can go ahead and play it like it’s not allowed… it’s not a huge deal here

[Karl7]

Yeah, it’s minor, whatever you want to do is fine with me.

Page 30
Transports:
Unit Characteristics
No Combat Value:
Even though a transport can attack or defend, either alone or with other units, it has a combat value of 0.

I’m guessing it’s legal.

Still trying to decide about the Carolines, though, and if I’m going for the Carolines I won’t try it anyway because I’ll want the transports in 33

London and Calcutta either one or both together can pay for researchers, and they can spend any combination of money they want.
1 + 4 = 5, which pays for one researcher
