(25) So my question is, especially if you're playing with isolated reorg, how do folks make use of the Italian X inf corps that must be setup in East Africa?

I place the Italian INF in Addis Ababa, or Asmara.

There it usually stays put until destroyed.

The exceptions are:
- when it is evacuated by sea (usually the first turn).
- when it is supplied by sea by more secure means (Suez is Axis controlled).
- when it is no longer isolated (usually because Anglo-Egyptian Sudan) has been conquered.

I am sorry for the late reply.

No problem ... thanks.

In CE, this isn't an issue because of the Italian supply unit. "(2.4.2) ..., during each of your impulses (not you opponents), each of your face up supply units is a primary supply source for one non-HQ unit it is stacked with until the end of your impulse. This does not expend or turn face-down the supply unit. You may do this each impulse (to the same of a different unit). Also, (13.5) " Option 35 (Isolated reorganization) ".. supply units along with 1 unit each supply unit is stacked with are now turned face-up."

So in CE, it looks like the Italian supply unit can/would make the war in East Africa much more interesting; especially if the Italians managed to slip 1 or 2 subs into the Red Sea/East Africa while neutral.

I must admit, that change in CE (vs FE) makes me envious.
