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)
Flying over Neutral countries. A confirmation required.

As I understand it, you can NOT flying over strict Neutral Countries without declaring war on them. Is this Correct?
One thing, as I understand it, is that movement from SZ 99 to SZ 100 (Agean sea to Black sea via the dardenelles) is also is covered under this rule as Turkey, being a strict Neutral, would have to be occupied/attacked/controlled to be able to move through (what I am assuming) is their territory.
Would someone please confirm (or make a correction on) my interpretation of this rule. Thank you in advance.

You can’t fly over neutrals if you don’t attack them.
Z99 to 100 doesn’t pass over Turkey, so it’s allowed

The only thing I would like to confirm regarding your answer Calvin is; If ships cannot pass through the Dardenelles without a declaration of war, why can aircraft?
-
Air units can pass through a canal or narrow strait without it being under friendly control, whereas sea units cannot.

Thank you Calvin and Kreig.
