That wasn’t the most pleasing turn for the Axis. Attack with huge superiority particularly in Turkey and still lose. Can USSR hold on? They look pretty strong actually. IJN at the bottom of the Pacific. This could be over soon.
Added a tank blitz into USSR. Trust it’s Ok.

I suppose I can allow you to undo the attack if you’d prefer that.
So is this still on the table?
Yes, Ok.
Yeah, I’ve already offered them a retreat, but they insisted they could lose and remain in the SZ, under the cover of an airbase.
Thanks for the quick reply.
Yes there was that possibility. I trust you’ll be happy with your decision.
I’ll be going out of town this weekend so I’ll be offline for a few days. Have a great weekend!
Very much happy with how that worked out!
Ok, I’ve asked the FAQ. But I would refer you to Step 6 of Conduct Combat
@Starting:
Step 6. Press Attack or Retreat
Combat rounds (steps 2–5) continue unless one of the
following two conditions occurs (in this order):Condition A—Attacker and/or Defender Loses All Units
Once all units that can either fire or retreat on one or both
sides have been destroyed, the combat ends.
Players who have units remaining along the battle strip
return those units to the contested space on the game board.In a sea battle, if both sides have
only transports remaining, the
attacker’s transports can remain in
the contested sea zone or retreat per
the rules in Condition B below, if
possible.Condition B—Attacker Retreats
The attacker (never the defender)
can retreat during this step. Move all
attacking land and sea units in that
combat that are on the battle strip
to a single adjacent friendly space
from which at least 1 of the attacking
land or sea units moved. In the case
of sea units, that space must have
been friendly at the start of the turn.
All such units must retreat together
to the same territory or sea zone,
regardless of where they came from.
Retreating air units remain in the
contested space temporarily. They
complete their retreat movement
during the Noncombat Move phase
using the same rules as an air unit
involved in a successful battle.
Clearly only Condition B can apply.
Rule clarification please.
US CVs with British fighters onboard start in SZ113 which is hostile with a German DD. US flies in some planes and attacks the DD, Germans scramble.
US stops attacking after losing all its fighters, while Germany still has fighters left. What happens? My understanding is that the CVs can only retreat if they’ve jumped to SZ114 in the combat move otherwise their destroyed because they have no attack value. They can’t remain in SZ113 because its hostile.
Someone is claiming that they can just remain in SZ113 in spite of losing the battle.
I suppose I can allow you to undo the attack if you’d prefer that.
The SZ is hostile with the scrambled fighters. You cannot remain in a hostile space. That would be why AAA removed the CVs. To retreat you have to have moved to SZ114 and back to SZ113. We can assume you did that.
You can ask for a ruling if you like but I’m sure I have the rule correct. You cannot attack a SZ with scrambled fighters and remain in the SZ without killing all the fighters.
Oh for ����’s sake. I lost the 3 fighters and took no hits on the carriers. So triplea decded to sink my carriers. WRONG. I will stop the attack and edit back my carriers
Ok, but if you don’t continue the attack you have to retreat to SZ114.
who says America can’t afford a naval base?
They can but you can’t use it to repair units until the turn after next.
