@theveteran hopefully there’s a little more clarity in v4

@sjelso that was kind of my thought. Useful for gaps in the convoy lines and cornering subs.

@didier_de_dax thanks, he sees the light finally.

@insanehoshi interesting. Thanks for the insight!

@insanehoshi I think I get it lol. Would the British fleet have to stop in the sea zone with the Italian ships when the declaration of war is made?

Another thought, if the British are making a combat move through the sea zone of the neutral Italians, but the Italians end up declaring war, wouldn’t the move of the British into that sea zone now be considered a combat move since the ships are entering a hostile sea zone?

@insanehoshi Ahh ok, that’s what I was looking for. So let’s say my original scenario is taking part in the combat phase rather than the non-combat phase. Does this rule apply as well or would combat actually occur?

@trig yah that makes sense. Thanks for the reply

Let’s say on Britain’s non-combat move they move ships through a sea zone with Italian ships already present. Italy decides to declare war at the moment. Does combat occur even though it’s a non-combat move? If so, is Italy the attacker or the defender? I wasn’t able to find anything in the rules regarding this.

Thanks!

@chris_henry for sure! One of the many reasons I enjoy this game so much

@didier_de_dax thanks, he sees the light finally.

Using Kiev as an example- can the Germans, in the same move, strat bomb the airbase, blitz and surround the city with a small portion of their force, then attack the city itself with remaining forces giving the city defenders the -1 penalty? I would imagine so since the attacker gets to choose the order of his battles. My opponent disagrees. Thoughts?
