Shouldn’t Russian sub in 94 counteract this? I know it’s not in game engine, but seems like it should. 🤔

[mikawagunichi]

@Stucifer My recollection is it must be a surface warship.

[mikawagunichi]

@Stucifer It does say surface in the OOB rules.

[Stucifer]

I believe it was changed for Balanced Mod I will check

[Stucifer]

You’re right, it is a surface warship still. Bugger.

@Stucifer I meant to move 4 of the Bulgaria Germans to Greece and one north this round. Will edit on Italy’s turn if that’s OK, fine if not.

@mikawagunichi Yeah that’s completely reasonable. I can edit when I start US turn

Dropping the ball all over the place here lol. I think in my test turn when I was figuring out placements I must have had the fighters in Hawaii because I saw no way for you to take it. Now I am in quite the bind! If I can keep Japan off the money islands for a couple more turns, though, I think you’ll abandon Hawaii for a more central position…we shall see…🤓
