Alsch (Axis) vs Auswanderersland and JamesAleman (Allies) Alpha 2
-
I’ll have to confer with Andy on this one…
-
Sure thing.
-
I asked for a ruling, however, I would like to point out the following:
Russia is not a “true” neutral. They are a member of the Allied forces and allow allied units in their territories in both maps once at war with Germany/Italy.
To give an example of why America may land planes is the following:
Germany is in Siberia, so America may never attack? That would silly.
-
I agree that would be strange, but would also be a relatively rare occurance.
I’d argue it would be much sillier for US to be able to land 12 bombers in Amur, wrecking Japan’s IC every turn, and for Japan not to be allowed to strike back without giving Russia 12 IPCs.A line from the Alpha rules-
Due to its separate treaties with Germany and Japan, the Soviet Union is in a unique position in its relationship with the Axis powers. As a result, if the Soviet Union is at war with Axis powers on only one map, it is still under the restrictions of being a neutral power (see Powers Not at War with One Another above) on the other map. In other words, a state of war with Japan lifts those restrictions from the USSR on the Pacific map only, and a state of war with Germany and/or Italy lifts those restrictions on the Europe map only.

/shakesfist at the world.
Alsch,
Our incorrect understanding of Russia’s neutrality has forced us to redo China and US Turn 5. We are discussing now, I should be able to repost after the kids go to bed. Sorry for the inconvinience. We will keep what rolls we can as it appeared they were slightly in your favor.
-
No worries. That’s fine.
