Can't speak to the oil situation.

As for the BB, was that BB reinforcement supposed to go to the construction pool? If it's a 2nd-cycle build then it's supposed to go to a port.

Ships and aircraft at sea consume oil if reorganised, but they do not need to trace a path to the oil resource.

Yes, you found the relevant rule.

However, did the French ships, in the Baltic Sea, have a port they could return to? If not, then it might be a bug and they should have been destroyed. Ships that does not have a base they can return to are not allowed to stay at sea. And I suspect that the only base available is Frederickshavn, although I am not sure if that is the case. Maybe Aarhus is Allied? And if Frederickshavn is the only base and there are CW ships there then that port is unavailable since CW and France do not yet co-operate.

So it all comes down to this; did Allies control a port in the Baltic Sea area without any CW ships during the return to base step? If they did the French remain, if not, then they should be destroyed.

Cut from 13.4 Return to base:
When you can’t return to base
Destroy any unit (checked individually) that has no base to return to. It makes no difference if a unit
couldn’t return to base because it was out of range or was blocked by naval movement restrictions (see 8.2.10 and
11.4.4). [Clarification. You can not return to base to a port you could not normally make a naval move into - Dec.
23, 2007.]
Destroy any unit at sea that couldn’t have returned to base (even if it could stay at sea). [Clarification.
Infinite naval units may remain at sea provided at least 1 space (i.e., at a minor port) is available to which they could
have returned to base - Dec. 28, 2007.]

No, there is no port the French could enter as both Fredrikshaven and Aarhus are occupied by the CW.

Edit: Just seen Mayhemizer's post so maybe this works. Presumably as Denmark was conquered by Germany the restrictions on units needing an HQ no longer applies and the French could enter any unoccupied port in Denmark - even if CW owned?

I think it would come down to if the CW aircraft was returned to the port before the French return to base step. According to the rule, that is. However, I am not sure how MWIF interprets the rule. And I do know that this has been bugged before. In one of our games we had to manually enforce it and the French ships survived until they were in the 0-box, even though there were no port available during that the turns the ships stayed at sea.

Anyway. Since the CW plane returned to Aarhus during this step I think you should continue as is. And check it thoroughly the next turn.

The status of Denmark doesn't make any difference. HQ restrictions doesn't apply to major power units in minor countries. For MPs the HQ rule only apples to other MPs home countries. For example: Both France, and CW, can always put as many units as they like in Belgium (as long as Belgium isn't neutral).

The only relevance here was if there was an actual CW unit in the port because the French and CW may not yet stack together.

See below from Page 48 of RAC:

You can’t move naval units between the Baltic Sea and the North Sea (even via Fredrikshavn or Kristiansand) if major powers you are at war with control at least 2 of Oslo, Copenhagen and Kiel.

It's not possible to send ships from UK to Baltic Sea. But if I start from Frederikshavn, is that OK?

warspite1

I don't think so but we will probably need to consult the rules guru's. If you can then it just negates the rule and I think that is why it expressly mentions those two ports. I'll look on the ADG website and see if its covered there.
