Thanks for the game! Well the issue was never in doubt after the CSA offensive of the first turn, I just wanted to know how long I could hold. But the 2 cards in the row basically sealed it. Well some lessons learned :-) Good luck in your next games, Filip |

Yep! Here is the rule that talks about this. 5.82 ONE ATTEMPT PER MOVE: A player may only make one interception attempt per enemy move. Once a player has attempted an interception he may not make any further interception attempts during that enemy move. During a Campaign card event a player gets one interception attempt per enemy move (two on a Minor and three on a Major campaign). |

See 5.8 for full rules but here is the most relevant section: In a successful interception, the whole force must move, not part of it. Exceptions: SPs in excess of movement restrictions (on that type of force moved) must remain behind. One SP may remain if a fort was present in the space from which the interception occurred. One or the minimal amount of SPs required may be left behind if the restrictions in 5.29 or 5.34 would be violated. |

When you intercept, if it isn't out of a fort, you must take your entire force. So Frederick (not Fredericksburg) is n0. Baltimore goes to n7 for fight, then n5 from losing 2 troops, then n4 after attrition. |

The rules on this game are so numerous. I often have to play with the rulebook open. Yes, the SPs do not matter for establishing LOC (although they will give PC at the end of the round if they are in supply then) Here is the rule: 8.1 Lines of Communication A unit is “in supply” if it has a Line of Communication (LOC). A unit has a LOC if it can trace a path of spaces to an ultimate supply source. All spaces of the path (except the space of the force) must be friendly-controlled or neutral, and free of enemy SPs or forts (exception: Riverine spaces under Union naval control). If a unit cannot trace a LOC, it is out of supply and must forage during the Attrition Phase. -- So for your attack moving from Baltimore to Annapolis, "all spaces of the path" are not friendly controlled. So my troop in Charlottesville will only be helping me reestablish supply in northern Virginia once the turn ended(if you had Hanover blocked again) |
101 | 1/2/2021 3:25:00 AM | Fall 1861 | Union | Message |
Just a question for OOS - the factvof having SPs in the space supplying (Baltimore) does not matter? You need to have the political control of the space? |

7.33 WHEN THE WINNER IS ELIMINATED: The elimination of the winner does not change who won. If the attacker wins but is eliminated, the defender does not retreat, but instead remains in the space. When a Union Amphibious Assault against an ungarrisoned Confederate coastal fort eliminates the Union force, the Confederate player retains control of the fort. (We are in this scenario -->) If the defender in the battle wins but is totally eliminated, the following procedure is used: A. If the space contained a fort or coastal fort, the defender wins and the attacker retreats. B. If the space did not contain a fort or coastal fort, and the defending force had a general present, the attacker occupies the space, but his movement ends. C. If the space did not contain a fort or coastal fort, and the defending force did not have a general present, then the attacking force can continue moving if it began the battle more than twice the size of the defender; otherwise, the attacker’s movement ends. |

So you are the loser of the battle (as CSA wins 1/1, with stars not counting) You do not retreat though due to rule 7.33. This is especially good for you as you would have lost an additional SP from retreating into an enemy controlled spot. |
