In addition to this, any of your ships in the sea zone when the combat are presumed to have taken place in combat. The only way to avoid this is to move them during combat movement (even if the move does not result in combat).

Japan took India. India had 14 damage markers on it. Major IC turns to minor IC. What happens to the damage markers? Reduced to 6? Removed all together? All 14 stay?
Currently in game, thanks for your help.
reduced to 6
I believe that this was asked before. The answer then was that they stay, because if retaken by the original owner all of the damage that was done would still have to be repaired.
The major IC gets reduced to a minor IC which can only hold a max of 6 damage points. All other damage is removed above 6.
First paragraph pg. 21 Europe Rulebook
“Any damage previously inflicted on a facility remains in
place until it is repaired (any damage markers beyond 6
on former major industrial complexes are removed).”
elevenjerk has the right of it.
No industrial complex can have more than the maximum allowed damage.
Besides which, when it gets retaken the original owner still has to pay the upgrade cost if they want to get full use out of it again, so there is still an IPC expense with it.
Along with the damage if it was never bought off before it can be upgraded. It could be a 26 IPC expense for the original owner to upgrade it back to the major.
