No. UK still controls Malaya. If Japan captured Malaya, then another Allied power recaptured it while Japan still held India, that power would then control Malaya and could build an IC there.
cool, thanks. And I knew that the U.S. technically wouldn’t earn any money with the Western U.S. taken, but I was really referring to the Global game where the Western U.S. wouldn’t be the capital.
Well there will be a new set of rules for the global game. It’s hard to say the impact that’ll have, though it’s good to get the question out early so them who make the rules will address it correctly.
