Ruling Question

@Pherman1215:

I need another ruling as well.  If there are two German U-boats in SZ 106 (using Alpha 2 rules), do they cut 3 IPCs total: 1 from New Brunswick and 2 from Quebec?

We play this as a loss of 3 ipc’s and I don’t see why it wouldn’t. But it would be nice to hear a conformation from the big wigs.

@Pherman1215:

I read a ruling on this once, but i can’t remember the answer.  If Germany invades Canada does this allow the USA to make a declaration of war?

Yes

Yes (alpha +2 only).

Another odd question:

So, I was mad at Russia for not retreating his Siberian stacks so I attacked him.

Russia believed that if he didn’t declare war on me (but didn’t retreat) and then on J1 I declared war, attacking the Mongolian territories J1 would’ve been attacking a strict neutral. Is that correct?

Yes, even if Japan attacks a Mongolian territory plus Amur during the same combat phase, the strict neutral rule is activated. The decision to retreat or not won’t effect territory status in this case.

OK thanks, guess I was wrong but we settled on the right decision!
