Global 2nd edition Q+A ( AAG40.2)

@Cow:

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

Page 39 of the rulebook http://www.wizards.com/avalonhill/rules/A&A_Europe_1940_2ndEd_Rulebook_LR.pdf

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?

to clarify, there was no J1 dow.

Yes, that is allowed

@Gamerman01:

Yes, that is allowed

Could a lone aa offload to an orange java?

Yes.
It’s a friendly territory

…however it will not claim the territory.

@Krieghund:

…however it will not claim the territory.

that’s what i was wondering - thanks

you just would not claim the territory(and income). Would  still be Dutch.

If the USSR while at peace with Japan moves into Korea when occupied by the USA who is at war with Japan, what happens if Japan attacks Korea?

If the USSR is at peace with Japan, then they couldn’t have moved into allied occupied Korea in the first place, as they were not yet part of the allies on the Pacific half of the board.

Right, USSR would have to declare war on Japan to move into USA controlled Korea.

If this is the case, and Japan attacks USA controlled Korea with USSR units in it, nothing happens with the pact or Mongolia.
The Mongolians only join Russia if Japan attacks a USSR controlled territory bordering Mongolia.

The Mongolia, Neutral, and Dutch questions just keep pouring in.  I made a thread trying to lay out these rules in a different way, in an attempt to make them more understandable.  You can read them here.  Maybe I should ask a Mod to sticky this thread.  Go to the first couple posts of this thread.  I believe the correct answers to both Boldfresh and Karl’s questions can be found in them.

Talk about your double standards!  Italy can attack Russia with impunity while Germany reinforces without being at war with Russia, but Russia cannot reinforce the United States without going to war with Japan. :P  (On Japanese soil that is.)

There is simply zero reason why USSR should’nt declear war on Japan turn 1  :-)

Exactly.  It benefits Russia (and future US movements) to declare war immediately on Japan even if there are no combat moves planned on R1.

A question about retreats and suicide missions:

Imagine two of my fighters start at my airbase in Dutch Guinea. They fly five spaces to SZ 6. It is possible because my empty carrier moves there, too. Along with 10 Battleships or something. Imagine further that for some reason I occupied Korea. Now the battle begins because there are 123 enemy ships.

May I retreat my Carrier? What happens to my planes?

I suppose the planes will be taken out of the fight, but remain in the same zone? They will die? They are not allowed to move to Korea as, say, units scrambling and using their home base are allowed to? I am allowed to retreat the carrier even though that will doom the fighters? I cannot retreat the battleships and leave the carrier (or the planes) fighting?
