CW's Bonehead Move of the Year

I thought that the Italian Navy would cower in port in the presence of the RN so I left my Egypt ships out of port for a turn. I learned my lesson... I need to do more patrols. Spartaca keeps pulling fast ones on me.

I´m sry but i thought somewhere in the game we agreed on no techonlogy trade allowed...am i missing something here?

 

[eric_A]

All techs in this scenario have the "cannot be traded" flag
set so it is impossible to trade them. However they can
be stolen....

 

[Spartaca]

No action on the Minor Axis turn.
