Neutral USA/USSR unit share territory with others?

Can only USA/USSR sea units share territory with all others when not yet at war? Or only with Axis or Allies? I assume land units may not share space.

Sea units may share a sea zone with anyone. Land units may not enter another power’s territory, and no other power’s land units may enter their territory.

There is a special rondel shaped land-bridge that connects the non-island of Ireland to Scotland. But, not in real life. So you can drive across that, though why is a different question.

However, the Aleutian Islands are islands–you can’t drive there as I once allowed the crew to do. Which makes it especially annoying for Japan to take, since it requires an amphib to regain your NO. HTH

@SubmersedElk:

To clarify, I was discussing the merits of buying a stack of 4 bombers and sending them to the Pacific.

Sure one bomber might get some targets to snipe at - but a full round buy doesn’t add much to what you already got with the starting bomber. Anything can be effective against an opponent making serious mistakes like leaving a transport stack naked and open to attack, and in a case like that, one bomber is as effective as four.

The issue is with the mechanics of movement over the oceans. A Japanese transport at a harbor can be in range to attack a bomber while the bomber is not in range to attack the transport, despite the vast difference in base movement - an airfield for the bomber makes no difference. Land units can effectively move 5 spaces to attack when using a transport at a harbor (one load, three move, one drop). The bomber would need 8 move total to attack that transport and return to base, and of course it only gets 7 with the airport and 6 without.

It’s totally counterintuitive when you look at base move 2 for ships and base move 6 for bombers, but in practice, that transport can attack from one space further away than the bomber can.

In order for this to work you obviously cannot takeoff and land at the same territory. The Pacific allows for many landing areas so this is not necessarily a problem. Some good bomber moves in the north are to bring bombers from Hawaii to attack SZ 6 and land in Midway, and to take bombers in Midway and attack Japan and land in Amur. That extra move is what really makes the difference.

Actually, if Japan invades FIC, it only costs them the $10 NO for peaceful relations with the United States. It doesn’t bring the US into the war.

All those other things do however. Also, if any territory in North America gets taken by the Axis, US can declare war. Basically this means Canadian territories.

@Frontovik:

everybody is complaining US going 100% in pacific ruins the game
well, in my games US does hardly something (let japan rot): they have hard time conquering india and containing Anzacs with very little support, and meanwhile italy is pummeled and germany stops its supply to eastern front cause allies can threaten with a whole lot of troops to conquer europe and berlin…

I really don’t understand what do you want us to say…

Q

The odd thing is, USA ignored the pacific after i took out a bunch of jets as they attacked the japan mainland….then he just built a ton of $20 battleships with no transports or any land units. That is probably the reason i’m winning.

@Flashman:

If both sides are all killed in the battle, you have to improvise some sort of “pro-Axis” marker for Sweden until it is occupied.

No, you don’t, because all strict neutrals are now pro-Axis. However, until a power claims the territory, you do need to indicate somehow that the Swedish army has been used up. An upside down control marker works well.
