Rule question / System issue
Posted: Wed Apr 17, 2024 12:52 am
Situation: Fleet in Bul.sc, Fleet in Age, Army in Gre. I want to move Army to Bul and Fleet Gre. The rule is you can’t switch spaces. But in this setup, as I understand the rules, I can convoy the army to Bul, and move the fleet to Gre. I know I have used this maneuver in previous games.
However, when I tried to do this in a recent game, this happened:
• Diplomacy
o The fleet at Bulgaria (South Coast) move to Greece. (fail)
o The army at Greece move to Bulgaria. (fail)
o The fleet at Aegean Sea convoy to Bulgaria from Greece. (fail)
I was surprised, but then I noticed I did not convoy the army just moved it. However, the order interface did not have the option for a convoy to Bul from Gre. I didn’t notice this when I entered the orders, and there was no option to convoy Bul-Gre. I checked other games I’m playing, and the interface doesn’t allow me to convoy to an adjacent province when I have a fleet in the water.
What’s up? Am I wrong in my understanding of the rules?
