Just to add to wittmann, the Russians are played with different political rules on each map (Europe/Pacific). They are still one power though, so you can send units from the Euro side to the Pac side if you want. For example if you are at war w/Japan you can send Russian ground and air units that start on the Euro map into China to help prop them up (because the Chinese are also at war w/Japan). You could even send those Russian ftrs to Burma or India (via China) once the UK Pac is at war with Japan (but just because you can doesn’t mean you should LOL)
Territory Re-Capture (UK - Italy - UK - Germany or Italy?)

I suspect this has been covered but I could not find.
Scenario:
- Italy captures Egypt from the UK and collects IPC/$ each turn
- UK re-captures Egypt from Italy reverting it to UK original control
- Germany captures Egypt from the UK
Does Egypt revert back to Italian control since they were the first/“original” to capture it or does Germany now control it and collect the IPC/$?
Thank you,

The territory is now German.
Only originally owned territories are liberated by their conquerors. If instead of the UK capturing Egypt it was the US, the US would have liberated Egypt and returned it to UK control. Because Italy did not originally own Egypt, when Germany conquers the territory it is now a German territory.

This is an issue I wish the game by vanilla would just let you turn over control of territory to your allies as this happened a lot between Germany and Italy. I have allowed enemies forces to capture a territory just so I can turn it over to another.
