Thanks.  I wish those would show up in the list of combats in the history.  Sometimes I’ll do a pre-run and copy the moves for the real deal but those don’t show up in the list.

I wanted to run another rule question by you…

With the Anzac sub off of Celebes, I know I can ignore it and pick up units on the combat move phase, and I can also send units to attack it.  I’m wondering if I can do both at once though.  There’s that rule that says all units in a sea zone have to participate in the combat happening there.

However, my transport would only be picking up there and attacking elsewhere so I think this is ok.  I’m believe the rule about all units participating in a combat only comes into effect at the end of the combat move phase but I’m not 100% sure.

Thoughts?

Hmm, ok, seems non-definitive to me.  Let me run it by the deputies.
