Wow, thanks you guys for the detailed answers.  And good thing I waited until now to ask, since my last victory hinged on misinterpreting that rule.  Even so, I like it better for that kind of blitzing to be impossible.

And ncscswitch, you’re right, I guess I do have Revised, so techinically I posted in the wrong place.  Rookie mistake!

Thanks again.

Hi, sorry if this question has been asked/answered already, I did try to search around a bit first and didn’t find it.

Ok, so here’s my question: Can you attack a territory with some other stuff, knock all the enemy off and either take it or not, then as a seperate combat move blitz through that (now unoccupied) territory and attack the adjacent one with your tanks?

Or a not-so-abstract example: Say I’m Germany and I have 10 tanks in Belorussia.  USSR has a couple infantry in West Russia.  On my turn, can I:  1.) send three or so tanks to kill those West Russians, and then 2.) send the rest on through to Moscow?

I seem to remember something about all battles in a territory taking place at the same time, and I feel like this kind of breaks that rule.  But then again, the blitzing one isn’t really a battle if nobody is there from your earlier attack.  I’m confused!  Help!!
