Hi, a couple of questions:
Regarding supply and neutral major powers.
In the rules, it states that Italy and Japan can trace supply through western allied waters and vice versa. But how does it work with Germany and Russia while Russia is neutral? Since nothing is written (I think) about it, are the Finns out of supply if Germany doesnīt control the sea zones in the baltic?
Can an active power trace supply through a (same side) neutral powerīs sea zones? We have understood that you canīt. Our example is when Italy stays neutral, can the German Vichy areas get supply through neutral waters? It gets weird if the enemies England and Germany gets supply through the same zones. If allowed, wouldnīt it be a reason to let England DoW Italy?
Another thing: we canīt find anything in the rules regarding the blue line in the baltic. So we have allowed the russian to move out of it and take control of the northern baltic sea zone. Is this correct?
thanx again for a wonderful game

Hello - Everyone can trace supply through neutral waters. Consider the blue line in the Baltic under the same rules as the Nazi Soviet Pact.
Let me know if there is anything else. :)

thanx!
Something else I forgot to ask, is it possible to move naval units through the Sakhalin straight if you donīt control the land areas? And shouldnīt this strait be possible to move land units across (since there are arrows printed)?

I don't have the map in front of me - but i believe the answer should be yes to both.
The blue line in the Baltic I believe is just the sea zone adjacent to Leningrad by the way - so the Soviet Cruiser realy needs to stay there until at war.
