I thought the best strategy to counter KJF was to KRF with Germany, since the Allies are ignoring you.
How do you counter KJF?
-
No units (other than those already in India) can be picked up by the UK SZ35 TRN on UK1 to land in FIC.
To grab Egypt, TJ or Persia units the TRN would make 1 move to SZ34, and its second (and last) move back to SZ35.
So the extra INF and ARM cannot reach FIC for a UK1 attack…

I realize I’m the new guy on the block, so respectfully I’d like to disagree. It appears to me as though FIC touches SZ35 next to Calcutta. Can I not conduct an amphibious assault with the transport?

FIC has only one adjactend seazone and that is 36.

No offense intended, but when I get outta work tonight I’m going to check my gameboard at home - I’m not convinced yet! Sorry
-
Well all the online gameboards clearly show that FIC is NOT adjacent to SZ35, but I could swear that my gameboard at home does… Oh well…
But still, what do you think about the 3 inf from India attacking FIC along with the fig in Egypt? -
It’s a gamble with 50/50 odds, I made it in my last game, but it is nothing I would try in every situation.

I am looking at my game board (and at Battlemap) and neither of them have even the slightest hint that SZ35 (India sea zone) is directly adjacent to the land mass of FIC…
-
I just looked at my physical gameboard - to me its clearly adjacent by at least 2/8 to 3/8 of an inch. I know that is small - but adjacent none the less. Again - I’m not trying to be difficult, I just dont understand how youre drawing the conclusion that its not adjacent. Thanks

From the avalon hill FAQ for revised edition:
Map
Does sea zone 14 connect to the Balkans? Does sea zone 35 connect to French Indochina?
No in both cases. -

No in both cases.Alright… I concede - I can’t argue with Avalon Hill. (But for the record, I think AH did a poor job of drawing that sea zone line!)
Thanks guys - Sorry for the trouble!
