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)
AAA into Friendly Neutrals
-
Knowing that AAA can’t convert a friendly neutral territory:
1. can an AAA move into a such territory (without converting it?)
2. can a transport unload an infantry and an AAA in a friendly neutral territory (in the NCM phase) converting it? -
Yes, you as long as you include that inf. I usually take Sumatra with an inf and an AAA gun.

An AAA can’t convert a friendly neutral?
Sounds logical but I couldn’t find it in the rules :-o. Not that I even dunnit, but still. -
I can’t find it in the rulebook either, but I know I have seen it stated somewhere that AA guns can not activate a friendly neutral. Maybe it is in the FAQs.

Except Sumatra is not a neutral territory.

Page 28 of the OOB Europe rule book
Infantry, artillery, mechanized infantry, tanks, and AAA
(antiaircraft artillery) can attack and defend only in
territories. Only infantry, artillery, mechanized infantry,
and tanks can capture hostile territories or convert
friendly neutrals. All can be carried by transports. -

And what about my first question? -
