Can enemy subs pass through the Suez?

@Texas:

Can enemy subs pass through the Suez?

No.  If the Allies hold Egypt, no CP ships, including subs may pass through.  Vice versa if the CP hold Egypt.

That is how it reads, but it doesn’t make any sense.  I was hoping it was a rule book omission.  Also, it is closed to everyone if Egypt is contested.  Which I think it should be open to everyone at that point.

Page 14 has been updated with the rule change regarding land units beginning the turn in contested territories:

Land units that begin the turn in contested territories can only be moved to territories that at the beginning of the turn were either controlled by your power or contained units belonging to your power.  (They can also remain at sea if moved by transport.)

ok so when a multinational force defends in a contested territory that is not a original territory to any of the defending forces and they defeat the attacking force…which defending power gets the ipc’s?this is a territory that is not originally controlled by any of the defending  forces.

The defenders decide who takes it, if they can’t the attacker chooses for them.

Hi  :lol:

I have another small question,
First turn: with AH i attack serbia with one infantry, well… The serbian( 3 infantry 1 artillery from russia) units kill my infantry and remain in the territory.
Now on the russian turn can i move these units as if they were russian or not?

Yes

On the same note, this is why France usually activates Albania, because Italy can then control the new Albanian troops on their turn and either attack with them or move them off via transport.

Are you allowed to build if your capitol is contested?

Yes.

I think I know the answer (No) but just to be sure:

Is it allowed to ship austrian units from contested Triest to hostile but empty Venice?

Not unless you load them on one turn and then wait until the next turn to do the amphibious assault.

My fleet is in a seazone containing an enemy minefield which it survived. Then the next turn my transport move out of this seazone, pick up troops from the bordering seazone and moves back into the same seazone, which still contains my other ships, to offload them. Do i have to face the minefield again?

Yes.

Thanks for the answer Krieghund! Here is another one:

Am I allowed to use a fighter from a contested tt for an attack in a tt that didnt contained units of my power at the begining of my turn?

Yes, as long as you are also attacking with infantry.  Fighters are not subject to the same movement restrictions that land units are.

Can I land a fighter in contested territory?

@Mountaineer:

Can I land a fighter in contested territory?

Yes.

If I were to capture Ottoman for example, can I build troops in Ottoman’s capital?
