    @wheatbeer:

    Every single Allied ship got a hit on its first roll and Germany failed to clear SZ91 altogether.  :|

    ugh…very ugly !

    If luck doesn’t swing soon, this is going to be another short game…

    Yeah, I really hate when dice are like this on round 1 (for either side).  It has a much stronger impact than getting diced in later rounds.

    No scramble this time.

    I just checked out the Powers That Begin the Game Neutral (I always read the FAQ posts) and the transport loading situation on a DOW turn is actually listed as an exception.

    I feel bad since I have an open tourney game that’s going to be messed up now.

    Yup….i just asked it on the FAQ to be sure.

    So it’s another bug from Triple A…Going to mention it to Veqryn.

  • 17

    I wish this exception was listed on page 13 of the rules (Units Starting in Hostile Sea Zones) … rules in the game still surprising me  :lol:

  • 17

    kcdzim seems to be saying that neither Japan nor the UK aren’t technically powers that that begin the game neutral … I am not 100% sure, but he may be saying that the rule on page 15 won’t apply to our SZ36 scenario.

  • 17

    *are

  • 10

    even if Japan and UK start the game being “at war”, they are not at war with each other. So the rules p.15 still apply. I’m 99,9% sure about that.
    That issue, in that sea zone precisely, has been adressed by Krieg in the past. Just can’t find it in the 195 pages thread.

  • 17

    I was confused by what he said about neutrality.  Maybe he said that with reference to the China issue, not the transport issue.

    Veqryn’s going to be really unhappy if they’re both errors.

    @Axisplaya:

    So the rules p.15 still apply. I’m 99,9% sure about that.

    kcdzim gave a more explicit answer, and you’re correct

    Do you can if I offload the men on my transports in SZ36?

  • 10

    lol, no. offload them. I’m not going to stick a dd in there anyway.
