The problem is the US won’t be able to do anything with those transports off Gibraltar because the axis will be able to counter attack the allied ground forces almost anywhere they land. Not only that if you move to land in say Southern France, now your transports are woefully out of position. Also Russia just gets absolutely creamed in this version by Germany and Italy’s can opening ability. You need to have US send a steady stream of 18 ground a turn into Europe. That is 9 transports off Gib landing in Spain, and 9 transports off Eastern US getting ready to pick up the land units for the next turn. Good players won’t let you land in a beneficial spot for the allies without significant loss of tempo from moving your transports and fleet way out of position.
Hey Beevus…Alberta DOES border Central US!!!

I can prove it. If you take a look at the back of your board where the map wraps around the end there is a whole centimeter of map that continues out of the edge. You can easily see a centimeter long border after Lake Superior ends where ALBERTA HAS A BORDER WITH CENTRAL US.
Technically, ALBERTA BORDERS CENTRAL US.
Wow, I’ve actually stumped Krieghund!!! Amazing!!! I deserve a cookie!!! If this gets overruled its because they know I’m right!!!
:-D

Obviously it was intended that these two territories share a border. However, the way the map was cut that border ended up being cut off. The back of the board is not a playable area, so it’s irrelevant. This issue is and has been under review. If it’s decided that it’s worth it, an erratum will be issued; otherwise, the map will stand as is.
I agree that you need a cookie.

An issue for the FAQ, then :-)
