I really can’t take my turn until I know whether or not USA can attack if Japan does not make a DOW against it.
Corrigan you said you were going to attack with Japan anyway this turn don’t you? Otherwsie if I can’t attack with US I might need to change everything from US#7. (What I bought, where I am etc…)
Because I played on the assumption that USA would be able to attack US8. (That’s also why I built a transport in the atlantic)
“Incidentally, I probably was going to attack with Japan on R8 anyway, so the net impact is mainly just that you don’t get your war income R7”
That’s what I said - probably. However, you did the one thing that would make me not attack the USA, you declared war with UK and ANZAC, now I have targets that I can take without having to mess things up with the USA.
But I wouldn’t have attacked you with UK/ANZAC if USA wouldnt enter the war. You could just remove 5ipcs from UK. Because really, why would I?
And consider a DOW from France to Japan.
Is it possible to DOW with ANZAC and not the UK? I thought that they were linked?
Do you agree that the ANZACs would also have to withdraw their DOW? Or should we look this up in the rules?
of course anzac too. they dow together
