Quick question about the U.S. with the new rules

Well on the board you generaly move stuff 1 at the time.
So the wording is a bit weird but what they try to say is that you only have to move the carrier if not moving it would cause planes to have no landing zone.

So its not earlier as in an earliers phase but earlier as in earlier in the NCB phase.

The game is already weird in that imo all movement should be simultanious. You cant start moving later and still expect to arive at the same time.
If you first await a combat resolution and then move your going to be later then if you are moving immediately.

The American units only watch the scenery, as friendly powers never attack together. As Britain in your scenario is the attacker, the British transports may retreat, if possible.

In this scenario the transports were already in the SZ so they would not be allowed a retreat. However, if they left the SZ and came back in then they could retreat.

Right, that is the way that makes a retreat “possible”.

Thanks that’s sorta what I thought

It could have been worded better IMO.

Thanks I’ll have to run that by the group, it will change things a little.  That’s too bad that they let it out without a note in the rulebook or a better review of all the components
Tanks again

That makes sense thank you! I just saw that maybe I could but it didnt seem legal… thats why I asked! haha

The ICs become major the instant Italy declares war on the US, which is BEFORE it conducts combat. Thus, when Italy captures EUS, it has a major, which is immediately downgraded as per the “captured majors become minors” rule.

thanks krieg. my head was starting to hurt
