Quick in-game q: Japan vs French-Indo china (Alpha +2)

[Woodstock]

Is Japan allowed to attack FIC, without provoking the Allied forces?

Thanks a bunch.

[Robbernosky]

Yes

[Woodstock]

Much appreciated.

[Krieghund]

As long as there are no Allied units in it.

[soldaatvanoranje]

Wait, what?  :? Do I understand correctly (not sure if I interpret “provoke” right)

So with Japan I can attack the French, without causing war with the UK, ANZAC and/or USA?

[Krieghund]

Correct.  US and UK/ANZAC do not consider a declaration of war on France to be a provocation.

But it does cost you the 10 IPC NO, so until your planning to go to war with the US consider the IPC value of FIC to be -8
