Above is precisely the situation I was confused on.  However, my understanding now is that the above situation is impossible, as the carrier was damaged and the German fighters cannot land on it.  My understanding is that the only time a carrier will ever have cargo is if it is another power’s plane.

With the Naval Base in the UK, it is just as close as Iceland in terms of getting to America.  Why take a turn going out of the way?

If I capture a territory (say Slovakia-Hungary) can I move tanks through that space to Romania during the non-combat phase?

It is the start of US turn 3.  Do they collect the bonus 30 IPCs right now, or will that come into effect next turn?  They have 35 on hand, but does the bonus take effect immediately or do they have to wait until the next collect income phase?

So Italy takes Southern France on their first turn, they subtract 2 IPCs because of the French Fleet sitting off the coast?

How about SZ 99.  Can the allies inflict convoy damage to Greece and the Axis would inflict convoy damage to Syria?

So I capture Paris on G1, this gives me a one time boost of 17 IPCs, as well as raising me 4IPCs.  France can no longer build new units.  Is this the correct reading of the rules?

Ok I see with the attacking force and allied planes.

But aren’t the fighters assumed to be in the air on defense, even though they are not directly participating in combat?

Can someone lay out a situation where a damaged carrier would have cargo?  To me it seems that the fighters on board will defend, and then once they cannot land back on the damaged carrier.  Thanks for the help.

So what is this “optimal” strategy?  Are you tank rushing to Moscow with Japan, or are they knocking out UK/US IPCs in India and the Pacific?  Is Italy simply building up defense in France, or are they more aggressive moving into Russia?  I often try to punch holes in the Russian lines with Italy so the German can move more freely, but have not had much success.
