Just out of curiousity, and some vested interest, How would you rule on this: Fleet Rumania to Bulgaria (nc)??? I won't say anymore so as not to influence...
Personally, I would accept it on the basis that I would normally accept:- Fleet Rumania to Bulgaria However, I am aware of at least one GM that insists that a...
Fleet Greece to Bulgaria(nc) & Fleet Constantinople to Bulgaria(nc) Are however very different proposals!!!! (tricky!!) ... From: Martin Gilbey Sent: Tuesday,...
Thank you for that geographical reminder, Scott. ;^) My own opinion, reflected in my house rules, is that it is an illegal order, and the unit would hold. ......
... Exactly. If the order of F Rum-Bul left off any coast designation, it would be valid because there is only one coast it can go to. If the order read F...
If "(nc)" is viewed as a typo, then F GRE to BUL(nc) - OK F CON to BUL(nc) - Illegal, no coast specified If "(nc)" is interpreted as "North Coast", North being...
... But by that reasoning, F Gre-Bul(nc) should also be valid, shouldn't it? After all, you would have accepted F Gre-Bul with no coast, wouldn't you? So how...
... Thus eliminating for your players at least one fertile avenue of "plausible deniability" and therefore reducing their diplomatic opportunities. In my...
... Therein lies the problem. The GM of the game I'm in IS accepting it. Oh, and, no, the order wasn't mine. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?...
... Actually I would allow F Gre-Bul(nc) ... Would you also disallow a player who send in an order Urk - Sev? There comes a point where a GM becomes of little...
... Well, actually I have to add to my prior statement about interpretion. I would not accept F Con-Bul(nc). I accept F Rum-Bul(nc) because Rum can only go to...
... Neither do I insist that your point is incorrect. So long as you are consistant in your application, you game are quite correctly run. But for me, as more...
... That was too forcefully stated, of course. The real touchstone, as always, is the actual rulebook (imagine that). Urk - Sev does not, in my view, "admit...
The bottom line is that BUL(nc) does not exist. As a GM I'd allow RUM to BUL the same as I would GOB to SEV since, as has been said, there is no place else for...
... There also is no URK, so again, do you toss that as well? The stricter one gets, the less need there is for a GM, might as well let the machine do it....
... Because a space on the board is a space on the board. Gal - Ven may seem silly, but Gal-Ven has exactly one meaning. That meaning may not be what the...
I am in agreement with you in part, but for me, there is a real difference between lack of (arguably) surplus information (it could come in handy if there is...
... Have you quizzed the GM? On what grounds does the GM determine that the intended coast is east and not south? Is there a support order for the move that...
... OK, that's a fair distinction: "I will liberally resolve ambiguity in an attempt to fulfill player intent; but if an order is unambiguously nonsensical,...
I'd allow it - I'd say it qualifies as badly written, but unambiguous since the fleet can only move to one coast. -Mike "Any society that would give up a...
I wonder how unambiguous an order Fleet Con-Bulgaria(nc) really is? I suspect that in at least 95% of the cases (if not 100%!) this error is made, the person...
... off in Constantinople. \ Really Pete?! While I'd agree that when the error is made its probably more often that the person meant to write East instead of...
... See there we go, now I have to add another line to the HR that says "GM will not examine support orders or orders for other units to attempt to determine...
