Hi ANZAC. For the HBG 1939 map, think of a 4x8 sheet of plywood. Its is HUGE and awesome. You need a big room for that size table plus room to walk around on all 4 sides. I only played the 1939 game one time and I can say it is definitely superior in a hundred different ways, but playing it is an order of magnitude more complex than global 1940. Global 1940 seems like the kiddie game next to it, which is nuts because global 1940 is not an easy game by any means. I’d say your best bet is to get the global 1940 if only for the pieces, and then blow the extra money for the 1939 map and elite pieces if and when you and your crew outgrow it. Another option is to play 1940 on this site with triplea.

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.

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.

absolutely correct - sorry - guess krieg read my mind! :lol:

Could a lone aa offload to an orange java?
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 :-)
