which means the japanese can then attack russian territories bordering mongolia without the mongolians joining the russians.  :-)

Yes
Korea was added with the 2nd edition (was not even in Alpha3) to territories Russia could not attack without losing the Mongolians.

Assuming you mean Japan has not invaded a Russian territory bordering Mongolia yet.

The previous Global 1940 FAQ thread (before 2nd edition) was 219 pages (a good chunk was redundant, but still  :lol:).

While a pretty deep and semi-complex game, the 1940 rule books are VERY good. I wouldn’t be exaggerating much saying 50% of the answers to questions in this post can be found in the rulebook.

Agreed.  The answer to about half of the questions on these threads are obvious if you do a reasonable read of the rule book.

I would be happy to provide you with intensive A&A training for $50 an hour - cheaper than a college class!  :-D

Urgent ruling needed!

Germany controll EP and Romania. They have 5 tank in EP and 5mec in Romania.

Bessarabia is empty russian (no units).

Can German mech attack Ukraine as they “meet” German tanks in bessarabia.

None of the mech in East Poland can get to Ukraine in the combat move.

Each mech must be paired with a tank, and they both must start and end their combat movement together.

In what circumstances would fighter be given 1 extra space movement to land?

@MagicQ:

In what circumstances would fighter be given 1 extra space movement to land?

On defense -
When returning from scrambling out to a sea zone
When its carrier is damaged or sunk (but must return to carrier it was on before unless impossible, so the movement point is granted only when its carrier is damaged or sunk)

Note that scrambled air units must return to their original territory unless it was captured by the enemy.

Also, fighter interceptors for bombing raids whose original territory was captured by the enemy may move one space to land.

If I have a russian unit in suiyuyan… and japan attacks it… does mongolia turn russian? or did they change that

Mongolia only turns Russian if Japan attacks a SOVIET-CONTROLLED territory bordering Mongolia, so no.

Question about placing Industrial Complexes:

Can UK place a minor complex in Persia (2 income pro ally territory) the same turn that it took it? Or only the next turn?

Thanks

You must have controlled the territory at the start of your turn to place a facility there, so UK must wait until the following turn after activating Persia to build a complex there.

anzac 1 - infantry, aa gun offloads onto java in noncom - tripleA allows it, but is this allowed?
