[aksully]

Ok Eric...sorry about that. I will redo the turn if that is the best way to proceed? If so I will do it tonight unless Glas is able to do it before I do.

Well last turn Sully was another rule violation as well!

Quote "If a blizzard unit captures non-combat units such as workers or heavy guns
the captured units may not move or be disbanded until a non-blizzard Russian
combat unit enters the tile."

 

[aksully]

Ok guys..I plead ignorance. I admit not having played the Russians and the use of blizzards I did not look at the finer points. Perhaps it has been a mistake to play the Russian turn without complete ownership. BUt with Glas not answering emails I have tried to move the game along.

Juriel...Glad you showed up to comment. Hope you are back to finish the game. I will disband 4 Russian workers and replay the turn. Also, I will not move any CW land forces in Occupied Europe on the current turn nor launch any air bombardments of Occupied Europe this turn or next.

Not making excuses for myself. I should have looked more in depth at the nature restrictions. I didn't. That is my fault. And I apologize especially to Glas.

I hope the Axis players find this acceptable.

 

[aksully]

Actually....as I rethink this. I will let the Axis players name the penalty. Make it apply to the Minor Allies or CW forces if that seems more fair to you guys.

I don't take offence by it nor do I think the penalty shoud be this harsh, was just bringing it up to get some clarification. I leave that stuff up to the host and creater of this fine Mod.

When I played Nature and when I played Russia I had a hard time keeping the rules straight. Spent a lot of time going back and checking the damn rules for them a lot so I understand where you are coming from Sully.

P.S. (You can find time for the AoI game we just got Lantz on board)

I'm not that toughed skinned to be called out so I do appreciate catching the mistakes. I'm okay with Eric setting a penalty that the Axis team thinks fair. I will hold off playing until Eric posts the penalty. Apologize for holding things up. Thanks J!
