Question on newly occupied territory after combat phase

@panther
Interesting. Thank you.

@Washington66 Yes Wash. The starting income level for each Power is in the bank at the start. :relaxed:

Wait? This means I might actually be playing and interpreting a rule CORRECTLY???

I’m sorry, this is a foreign experience….

Ok. Back from cloud 9.

Thank you guys all for assisting me in grasping this.
I’ll be back im sure with more questions.

Thanks all! Wow that was very helpful.  Made a lot of sense.  We’ll be playing this weekend.

@HansOop:

I think I know the answer to my own question and the answer is I have no option but to engage in dice battle and to either keep battling or retreat back to where I came from.

Right, the purpose of the Combat Move Phase is to move into hostile territories to either initiate combat (against hostile units) or just capture the territory (in case there are no enemy combat units present).

Welcome to the forum  :-)

Glad to hear that.
Yes, you could send over a Transport and drop more troops there, but only if the Sea Zone was friendly (which it sounds like it is, at the moment).

Thinking of the sculpted, why do most of them (Italy is exclude) have a number from 1 to 20 for the infantry?

If the enemy sub doesn’t choose to submerge first, both ships can attack it.  Only air units require a destroyer to allow them to attack subs.
