I'm screwing something up.

In a current game, as Allies, against Ktonos I've ruined USA readiness. The USA didn't join until December 1942. Yes, December 1942. Only reason USA even joined, Japan DOW on Russia. I didn't pay attention to USA readiness nor read any messages, UNTIL it was too late. USA went to 3%.

Appears moving Indian Long Range transports near Philippines before the war really starts was the culprit.

On the flip-side, in my games as Axis, it seems readiness for USA goes "fast". Meaning, I'm forced DOW on USA in October/November of 1941. My opponent stated, I'm moving Japanese transports outside some zone. It's gotta be either putting transports by Solomon Islands, DEI?

I see there's a SeaZone between Japan and USA on the map.
Is there another?

Press the blue button at the right of the central panel at the bottom of the screen, as this toggles hide/show info.

I think you may have had it turned off, as well as not reading the notifications, as the zones are very visible on the map prior to the USA reaching 100% mobilization.

Thanks for the quick reply, Billy. You are correct.

"Sometimes" I get that Italian/PacificRim Zone warnings.
Maybe 10% of the time.

After trying the Blue Dot toggle, you are correct.

I'm a dummy, but still a Legend.
My dumb ass needs to read more.

No, I only read msgs about US transports called back by isolationists, in my Axis game, nothing in my Allied game about Jap transports, not that I remember. So fast mob of US should be on something else. I do remember faintly, a uboat blockading the Canadian mines in early game, but not sure if it was ours or another one.
