Wow - that was disappointing. When I sailed from port to port no disorganised dot came up. Turns out they are all disorganised anyway [&:]
This is a disconcerting feature of naval moves. When you move from port to port, the units are not disorganized until after you end the naval movement phase. For a while I thought there was a bug, until I realized this.

Why it done this way I have no idea.
I thought I knew how to play this game....

We need to remember to order the transfer the Ju 88A1 to Italy.

Indeed. A German three strength bomber becomes a Italian five strength bomber.

This is bad considering rounding.

Edit: Saving three oil should give the same amount of build points.

Edit2: If my math is correct. [:D]

I also recommend that Germany destroy the two blue factories in Poland and the blue factory in Liege.

The bomber gets better when transferred to Italy. See picture.

Ah. [:D]

I am sorry about that misunderstanding. I should have expressed myself more clearly. [:)]

So have we reached that stage in the war when the need to discuss things is over? [;)]

There is now a opportunity to make Rumania a Full Ally. This, however, cause Hungary to stop giving their resource and they will only join as a 'minor' ally.

Since Bulgaria is out of the equation it is now more tempting to go for the full ally option for Rumania.

Is it worth the cost to get Rumania as a full Ally?

It might be useful to have Romania as a full ally and thus we can place German units within ahead of time.

So I read it that the alignment takes place next turn - not this one.

I bet all this breaks the game [:D]

I think the rule says that the claim take place next impulse.

Germany can do that either way. If the claim is allowed you can align Romania by declaring war on Yugoslavia, or controlling Belgrade.

Its not particularly clear, but yes, that was my interpretation. South Dobruja is too close to Ploesti too.

It means only one Hungarian can ever leave the country but that is no loss - and Romania is unlimited so swings and roundabouts.

I think we go for it.

Indeed. What annoys me is the lost Hungarian resource. The lost resources from Turkey and Bulgaria already hurts.
