Does "The sneaky Karl" lock down the fleet or prevent it from transporting units on ncm?

I rolled two games where Germany buys a Major IC on turn one.

First game, UK bought an IC in Egypt and a fighter for London, and US spent in the Pacific. Sealion G3 was a rout.

Second game, UK played conservative/defensively and aggressively with scrambles, and piled on the troops. US still spent in the Pacific because they’re not stacking 3 fully loaded AC’s in SZ 102 when Germany purchases a Major on turn one. This battle was a lot closer but Germany still sacked London with 4 tanks left and it’s entire air force (what was left of it - lost over half on G1 and G2. 1 SB, 3 Tac, 1 Ftr)

Hi Sarge

I’m guessing you mean digitally ? So you can look at a picture instead of setting up the physical board ?

If so, triplea would probably be your best bet as the pics I’ve seen in the past are kinda hard to see detail unless you have multiple pics.

You can’t see the whole map in detail on triplea either, but probably more efficient.

Or do you mean like a print of the physical board ? Like a big poster or map you can roll out ?

Thanks that’s sorta what I thought

@AMIGOOFD:

When you buy units, do you get to use them at that turn, or do you have to wait to place them at the end to use them. My friend argues you can use them right away after purchase.

The turn sequence is “Buy units, combat move, combat, non-combat move, deploy your purchased units”.  And then the next nation move does the same and so on.
So you can’t use them to attack, and the only way you can use them in your current turn is carriers as landing space for planes.

Transports and subs never block movement, even when being attacked.

Me neither, because they can.

The transports can retreat, but they can’t unload.

You may use the tank and the two infantries in Albania with maybe an artillery and/or an infantry from Northern Italy. This way, Italy would have done it’s part of the deal for Barbarossa and appease Hitler’s demands about it.
