@Krieghund I believe this move is legal and in keeping with the piece count limit rules but would like to verify.
The Japanese have two carrier groups. The carrier off India moves to the SZ southeast of French IndoChina. It moves back to the Indian SZ along with one of the carriers from the French IndoChina SZ.
The carrier that never moved in the French IndoChina SZ moves the the Japan SZ.
Closest reference I could find is in the FAQ:
Q. Can I have more stacks of bombers (or battleships, or whatever) than there are bomber pieces? If so, how would I mark them?
A. Marking them isn’t a problem, because you can’t have them in the first place. The number of playing pieces is a limit on how many forces can be in play. No one, for example, can have more than three bomber forces, or more than two carrier groups. The only exception to this absolute limit is chips; if 1 of 2 you run out of chips you can use anything else as a substitute: pennies, beads, slips of paper, or whatever works for your game. Note that this applies throughout the entire turn. A stack of six bombers can’t split up into more than three groups when they fly out to attack.
I didn’t split anything up so I believe this is legal? Thanks!
