L17 BM3 majikforce (X) vs AetV (L) Game 2

Correct on the scramble decision.  But there is a problem with your transports in sz 95.  The 3 trn that were in sz 95 are not able to pick up any units from sicily or sardinia.  Since sz 95 was hostile to start the turn they would not be able to load units if you fight in sz 95.  They can move out of sz 95 to pick up units but since it is during the combat move they would have to unload for an amphib assault.  You can’t move them out of sz 95 after the battle and load/unload since they participated in combat.  So they either stay in sz 95 empty or they move out during the combat move phase and stay empty.  I will let you rearrange your units before I go with Italy.  Kind of a crazy loop hole rule but I did check it with Gamerman.

Sounds good.  No inconvenience.  Just one of those unique situations that arise sometimes in a game.  I will wait for the edited file before I go with Italy.  Game on!

So there is still an issue with the US turn.  You took an Inf from Morocco to take Northern Italy, which would have been transported with the trn in sz 91.  Then you moved  the trn from sz 91 to sz 95 with the other inf from Morocco.  This is illegal because you would of had to load both inf during the combat phase and both would have to unload for the amphib assault.  So basically what Im saying is if you choose to take N italy with units from morocco the trn cannot end in sz 95 with units on board.  Hope that makes sense.  Sorry for being a stickler but the rules are the rules.  You can edit it yourself or let me know what you would like to do and I can do it before i go with italy.

That sounds good.  I wont be able to log on until tonight around 9 pm EST  so if you get to it first you can edit otherwise I will tonight.  Cheers!
