Rebase to Sumatra

Netherlands Transport & SA militia at sea. Only 1 ship left to RtB.

I've been basing all Free French subs out of Singapore also. Is that allowed?

If the Netherlands is incompletely conquered (much more likely in MWiF than WiF due to Surinam), then the NEI TRS is controlled by the CW but does not cooperate with FF (even though the CW does) and should not be able to stack with the subs (even though the SA MIL can).

Edit: Maybe I misunderstand the question. Singapore is not in Sumatra (per thread title). Are you trying to stack them together?

The problem i was trying to relate was that the Netherlands Transport is able to land CW units in the NEI before the US Entry option to allow it.

I also thought to ask about Free French subs basing from Singapore as an afterthought. It seems the subs are perfectly acceptable.

OK, understood. The only issue with FF subs in Singapore would be the loss of a movement point if there were also CW naval units there - due to mixing naval units of different major powers.

Getting a CW unit to the NEI before permitted by entry options, by using the NEI TRS, is a bug.

Funny you should mention the loss of a movement point due to mixing of Major power naval units.

For the most part i have kept the Major powers apart. But i do know that one time i mixed a RN and USN transport in the same minor port. Neither was docked a movement point. I don't have a save game for it. We played on past that point.

I'll mention it because if true. It needs to be looked at.
