Yes, FWA. No sense going east and taking the French territory of FEA so that the Brits can quickly claim it well into the future.

btw just keep in mind when you do the japp turn, the transports in 36 will not be able to do anything in noncom. so if they stay there and are in involved in the fight, or if they move out during combat movement, that will end their turn. nothing else can be done with them during noncom
-
yes, thx for pointing it out. In the meantime I am aware of it, but I did not think about it when doing the turn. I would still have landed some units there, but would have kept TTs in reserve. I truly hope I learn from it.
Honestly, although fully legit, I think this is a ridiculous exploitment of rules and mechanics (and this does not imply that I think you are unfair and such), without any basis. Its not the only example, but it should simply not be possible, I think its very much against the spirit of a war game.

I know exactly how feel, I myself have complained about such little tricky rules. Although to be honest I assumed pretty much all experienced players knew about this one, cuz we’ve all been bit by this one at some point or another. But do know it was not without cost to me, as I’m sacrificing 3 ships to achieve that blockade. Plus When I saw the naval base I assumed you knew what you were doing and was expecting to navigate around the blockers to grab some of the islands, maybe thinking I wouldn’t sacrifice the ca.
-
again, its totally legit to use that, and why you wouldnt if its made possible by rules? Could be it benefits me, sometime, but Id hugely prefer it not be possible at all.
-
Just to make sure, I cant move out and load elsewhere, right? TripleA allows, but I guess thats not programmable?
