Ah! Here is where my red-green colorblindness causes a problem! [:)]ORIGINAL: Orm
I am not sure if this qualifies as easy although it is definitely easier than opening a different game.
You can see it on the colour of the factory stack. So just remove all counters and look around. Green factories are railed in factories. And if the factory stack is an empty, white, stack then the factory has been railed out.
Several examples of railed out factories in the picture below. And the factory in Ufa is railed in.

Is there any way to see if a side has already railed a unit across a straight this turn, aside from trying to rail a unit and being told that you can't do that move?

The USA is neutral, but US entry option 11, US East Coast Escorts is in play. The USA elects for their CV, CA and CL to participate in the combat. This I knew. But what I didn't know was that by participating in the combat, US CP's in the sea area are now eligible to take losses. My question is is this correct?
Yes, at least as coded in MWiF. If I recall, I believe it's one unit a turn allowed to rail across straights. And by the way, I haven't yet found a way to "recall" if that limit has already been met except by trying to rail "another" unit across.ORIGINAL: Joseignacio

Thanks. Just posted a bug report on this over in the tech section.ORIGINAL: Joseignacio

Without looking at the rules, and by the logics of the game no ---> USA is not at war so his convoys cannot be fired upon, however the SCSs and CVs are escorting so they can join the fray.
Response by Centuur in the tech forum clarifies that this is no bug. That is, US CP's can be used to take losses while the US is still neutral if the US commits to combat.ORIGINAL: Joseignacio

As for determining if a unit has used a straits previously in the turn - no, there isn't anyway to 'see' that. You just try it and find out you can't.ORIGINAL: Joseignacio

By the way, the limit is one unit per side per turn [not per impulse].
Choose wisely. Don't rail a division across the Istanbul straits in the first Axis impulse of a turn and then try to rail Manstein across to support attacks in the Mid-East in the next Axis impulse. I was quite unhappy when I discovered this.
Ok. Thanks!ORIGINAL: paulderynck
AT is still doubled on defence when attacked by arm/mech.
There would have to be 4 colors: Axis used/unused & Allied used/unused.ORIGINAL: Centuur

Can't we change this somehow on the map? Like with the Burma road which gets a different color when it's closed? Red straits arrows means it has been used, white arrows means you can still use it for rail movement (for example)?
