I normally don’t do that type of stuff but because I was already a bit behind in terms of TUV I risked to bring the numbers a bit back up… but instead they skyrocketed downwards lol.

Allied bid: 4 inf in Ukraine

Is this a bug? For some reason I was able to retreat to East Poland, even though my units didn’t come from that territory (except for the German bomber) and there was a battle in East Poland this turn.

In the Ukraine battle, that is.

I put my retreated units in Romania, I am fairly sure it is a bug.
-
I just posted this in the TripleA support thread, shouldn’t have done it here actually.
-
It turns out it is actually not a bug, but a feature of the rules (thanks to Panther for pointing that out).
So in that case, I would’ve retreated from Ukraine to East Poland. Here is the corrected save file: G1 corrected.tsvg
And I will remember this possibility in the future.

Sorry for interfering:
Actually I pointed out that the old TripleA-Europe map is code-wise based on Classic.
In case you play the Europe-map and want to play by the rulebook, the Europe rules follow newer rulesets. From the Europe (1999) rulebook:
“The attacking land units may only retreat to
an adjacent friendly territory that was under the owner’s control
at the start of the turn – and from which any of the attacking
land units came. The units must all withdraw together to the
same territory.”That denies a retreat option to East Poland in this case.
So when playing Europe players must take care of this specific rule themselves. As v1 rules (Classic) differ from the Europe 1999 -rulebook.

Panther is right, please use the save file below the turn summary, not the corrected one.
-
@VictoryFirst I was not aware that in classic you could rig things so to allow the attack to retreat into a territory that was captured earlier in the turn. That is interesting.
Regardless, will play on with the file where Germany retreated into Romania.

Ignore the dice stats provided for the US turn and calculate based on the actual dice that got rolled.
Likely going to be a very one-sided game based on these initial results but there is still a window for things to change. If you attack the USSR sub it will submerge if it somehow manages to survive the first round of combat.
