A lot of posters seemed stunned at this scenario, never scene it ever happen or even could happen. Now that I mulled it over last night and looked at the rules and so forth it is very obvious to me why no one has ever scene this scenario. Because the scenario makes no logical sense.
Italy DOW on Russia and moves in 2 tanks into Eastern Poland.
Russia is now at war with Italy and can DOW on Germany at the start of their next turn, turn 3.
Germany on Turn 3 does not DOW on Russia and just non combats into Eastern Poland.
Russia at the start of Turn 3 DOW on Germany and off we go.There is no logical reason why Russia would not DOW on Germany at the start of Turn 3, none.
Heck you could argue that it makes no logical sense that Germany did not DOW on Russia at the start of G3 since Italy brought Russia into the war and Russia WILL DOW on Germany on R3.
Hi PainState,
From my perspective, if I was planning on doing a G3 Barbarossa AND I wanted to drive towards the south, then yes, it makes sense to not DOW. My stack will be together except for the minimum required mobile units and maybe 1 AAA in Poland so Russia doesn’t attack Poland to get their NO for occupying an Axis territory. But E. Poland will be real strong because the German air will be there and maybe bombers will also be in range of a raid on the Moscow factory. Also, 5 IPCs is more income than I’d probably get as Germany on the 1st turn.
There are a few disadvantages of course. 1, Russian blockers can’t be attacked. 2, the Scandinavian units are behind. But for me that’s ok, I just use them to lay siege anyways. I never expect to get Moscow on turn 6 anymore. I assume that the UK/Anzac and that lone French fighter are going to get to Moscow.Â
France's colonies?

The subject is somewhat misleading but I have a quick question… If a country like france lost their capital, can their allies like america and britain capture their territories… But once france is reliberated they get them back… this applies to other coutries of course but i was just thinking of global
thanks!

France is treated in exactly the same way as other powers in this regard. If an Allied power captures an original French territory from the Axis while the French capital is in Axis hands, that power gets to keep control of the territory until Paris is liberated.

Also collecting the IPC value?

Of course.

Yeah, the kicker is that the other side has to actually take the territory, you can’t just move into your ally’s territories and call them yours. They have to take it, and then you re-take it with your ally’s capital in enemy hands for this to happen.

In Global, if Japan invades FIC, is it at war with France?

really. I have always played where you can just take it from them.

@13thguardsriflediv:

It must declare war on France before doing so.
@The:

Yes, really.
