Ciao!
As mentioned we used to play as we are proceeding in our game - if Japan declares war on UK/ANZAC, the US can declare war on Japan in the same round. Issue is the unclear definition of “turn” - is this meant to be round or turn in the meaning of each nations turn per round.
Anyway, I was expecting that the US will declare war and attack right on, as we used to play it in our gaming group.
For future this scenarion can be more clearly defined in the wording. Furthermore I would suggest that in our scenario, the US cannot attack in the same round as Japan declared war on UK/ANZAC, but gets in war mode at the end of the round by collecting the bonus income for beeing at war and that the minor ICs are promoted to major IC. Just like TripleA does when Japan (or Germany or Italy) does not declare war on the US (or Japan in addition to UK/ANZAC) and the US enters the war in round 4. The US collects the bonus income at the end of round 3 + major IC.
Anyways, this little ambiguity should not affect our game. I was ‘prepared’ anyways and knew, that the US cann and very likely will also attack Japan right after the DOW to UK/ANZAC.
