Premptive strike in contested territory?

@Krieghund

Thank you! I saw that sentence but wasn’t completely sure that it implied what you said.

@theveteran

Thank you.

@Private-Panic said in Combat in contested territories:

e option of conducting combat or not doing so.

Sweet thank you!

Thank you Private for the clarification.

Thanks!

You can only move land units out of a contested territory into a territory which at the beginning of your turn was either under your control or contained units belonging to you.  Since Ukraine meets neither of those conditions for Germany, Germany may not move land units there from contested Poland.  However, since Moscow is not contested, Germany may move land units into Ukraine from there.

Thank you for the help!

@knp7765:

Yes you can. You are supposed to announce to the other players if you are making an amphibious assault (resulting in combat this turn) or an amphibious reinforcement (with NO combat in the contested territory this turn).
What’s more, if you do an amphibious assault, accompanying battleships can conduct shore bombardment and any defending artillery can take shots at your landing units. With an amphibious reinforcement, your battleships do not bombard and the defending artillery do not take shots at your landing units.

Battleships and defending artillery do not fire if you are offloading to a contested territory whether you conduct combat there or not.  They only fire if you offload to a hostile territory.
