ANZAC planes landing in Dutch territories (Java/Sumatra) on same turn they were taken by ANZAC

DEI is not neutral. If it was a pro-allies neutral it would look like Eastern Persia. There’s special rules for Mongolia but it is neutral, not Allied.

DEI has its own roundel because Netherlands is Allied. If they wanted it to be a neutral, they would have the vertical/diagonal lines running thru the DEI and say “-neutral”.
Is French Indo-China a pro-Allies “neutral”? By your logic, it must be. But it just isn’t.
Yes, Japan is only at war with China. Inevitably, Japan will be at war with US UK ANZAC. So while neutrality exists, the two factions also exist from the beginning and inevitably clash.

All I’m saying is that it is fine if you want to disagree with the rules and play how you want. I’m just asking that you and others don’t obstinately spread misinformation when faced with the actual rules.

Pg 9

“The only neutral territories in the game are those that make up Mongolia.”

Please start including sources for your claims otherwise it comes off as bad faith arguments.

Of course the DEI territories are not neutral. The status of the Dutch territories is clearly defined in the Pacific rulebook, page 9:

“Dutch Territories
The Dutch territories begin the game uncontrolled by
any power. However, they are considered friendly to the
Allied powers. Holland has been captured by Germany, so
Dutch territories are treated in the same way as any Allied
territories whose capital is held by an enemy power (see
“Liberating a Territory,” page 20), with the exception of the
guardianship of United Kingdom and ANZAC (see “United
Kingdom and ANZAC”, above).”

The fact that a territory currently is uncontrolled does not make it neutral.

@AndrewAAGamer
why don’t you log on to TripleA and lets play a live game some time. You sound like you need to be taken down a peg or two.

GEN Manstein appears to be on the same level we are about lending you arms.

I do agree fighters can’t land in newly acquired neutrals due to the fact that existing airbases are probably not up the to standard for anything other than bush planes.

@AndrewAAGamer using that imagination of mine again.

@seancb said in ANZAC planes landing in Dutch territories (Java/Sumatra) on same turn they were taken by ANZAC:

I sincerely doubt that factored into the rule – if the rules were based on realism and historical accuracy, Scapa Floe would be a naval base on the board…

@Marshmallow-of-War
Imagination man, imagination man!!!
Try to come up with some sort of explanation for it.

If you want realism play World in Flames but Jesus I played a whole game once and it took a year!!!

@seancb you played Jesus? how’d he fare?

@Aaron_the_Warmonger
once again the lack of a comma in a sentence causes havoc!!!
Did you eat people?
or
Did you eat, people?

@Aaron_the_Warmonger
for the record he did win, because it wouldn’t be very nice to beat Jesus, would it?
I told him he had to roll the dice fair and square but i could tell a few of them were “breathed upon”!!!

@seancb o man, i’m dyin’… :D need to watch that jesus!
