Sea zone 126 and Finland

One thing the Germans can do is hit the UK Cruiser in SZ91 which I used to do but stopped because those two subs are better used hitting SZ110 and therefore preserving more of the Luftwaffe.

Taranto is a pretty much all or nothing option for the UK but assuming it happens and succeeds the UK fleet is generally toast anyway. Is it really worth going to much length to stop?

@klykke89 No, Southeast Mexico only touches sea zones on the Europe board, Mexico, and Central US. It follows the same intersection logic as Sea Zone 10.

From the 2nd edition FAQ:

Does sea zone 10 connect to sea zone 64?
A. No. The border between sea zones 10 and 11 should connect to the Pacific map edge at the
southern tip of Mexico. Sea zone 10 is adjacent only to Western United States, Mexico, and sea
zones 1, 9, 11, and 12.

Sea zone 6 and Manchuria are not adjacent.  See the FAQ.

@Krieghund:

Units belonging to other powers may not move into territories belonging to a neutral power.  The most recent alpha setup can be found here.

This is also the other way round, right? With the exception of sea units. And even then, the attacker could ignore the ‘neutral’ sea units if for example German launch naval attack on a UK fleet where there is also a neutral Russian or US ship.

My foolproof plan to beat Russia:
-a huge stack in Finland
-a huge stack in Poland
-a huge stack in Romania
-tons of planes

And to hold off the western allies:
-huge stacks in several places like Germany, seazones etc…

:-D

@marechallannes:

Q1: A battleship enters a seazone with a hostile submarine. The sub submerges.

Following the rules, the sub emerges after the combat (that doesn’t take place)

Who controlls the seazone after the battleship owners turn?

Is the sub able to raid the convoy zone in that seazone, or is it impossible, cause the battleship owner “won” the battle and controls the sea zone?

Q2: Does the sub emerges before the collect income phase of the battleship owner and is it able to raid the sea-zone of the battleship-owner?

Q3: A submarine enters a seazone with a hostile submarine. Both sub submerges before any round of combat.

Are both submarines are able to make convoy raids? (For example a UK-sub and a Jap-sub in SZ 37)

1:  No power can “control” a seazone.  That’s why you don’t mark it.  The sub is able to raid, because it remains in the seazone during the collect income phase.  Powers occupy a seazone, and a seazone can be hostile, but it’s never really “controlled”.  A power can still place units in a seazone adjacent to its factory, regardless of how many enemy units might remain in that seazone (that may even be disrupting a convoy).
2:  Yes.
3: Yes,  assuming each is present during their respective enemy’s collect income phase (when the disruption occurs).

“Submerging” is simply a term for the option to retreat but remain in the same seazone.  It serves no other function, and it does not have any impact on any other phases of a turn.  After combat, all subs are effectively no longer submerged.

thanks for the responses.  I really appreciate it!

Mexico isn’t worth 3 now, much less back in the 1940s
