I’m against too much ruling, I don’t like the neutral thing.
Actually I’d even add a rule to prevent the Axis spoiling the True Neutrals while US is at peace.
Attacking true neutrals bring the USA to war?
Problem is that the axis did violate neutrality. Belgium and Holland tried to be neutral.
the USA did not enter the war after Belgium and Holland were invaded.

Oh Corrigan I’m not talking historically, just for game balance purposes.
I don’t know, invading Spain and Turkey while USA has to stay out of the war might be too gamebreaking, especially Turkey.
I know that when it’s my turn to play Axis I’d love to do so.
(I forgot again to update the IPCs, I’ll add 1 more to Anzac during Russia#5)
One of the reasons that I’m suggesting the new rules, including the automatic conversion of true neutrals is for the reason that you mention. USA might not enter the war but it would have a lot more IPCs added to its economy.
Your ruling would let Germay get Iraq G1. That’s big. I dunno, it sounds very gamebreaking to me. We might try it in our third match (we should play eachruleset 1time as axis and the other as allies and see how we feel about it, 2games aren’t a lot but at least it helps)

War weary Japan begins to look forward to peace; however, we find the Soviet build up along the border of the new expanded Japanese empire to be somewhat concerning.

There’s an old saying in Fascist Italy: never trust an English.
Looks like neither English nor Chinese infantry ever hits! They could have at least inflicted some more casualities.
