That is right. UK try to grab as many as they can before Japan attack them. Leaving 1 Inf on each means Japan needs to send more than just a transport to retake them. Japan usually attacks on turn 2. They really must take Kwantung and The Phillipines, sa as to deny The Allies 10 bonus income. DEI tends to be attacked the turn after their DOW.

Yes. UK and Anzac can move in and claim them, without triggering a Japanese DOW, but Japan will do. The US will be at war too with their 40 bonus.

As there are no Russians on the map and a pact between Russia and Japan, does everyone move all units out of Manchuria on J1?

9. I just prefer to see a map of Europe.

Thank you.

I would always take Normandy, but am considering leaving French North Africa.  Italy only really needs to  take and hold Egypt and stay alive to help Germany. Is too easy to get distracted and greedy!

I am sorry if  I have interpreted Chinese occupation wrongly. If rules had said move into or attack Japanese units in Burma and Kwantung, rather than ’ Can attack …and occupy them’ I would not have. Wording seemed to suggest Chinese  occupation of them was contingent on Japanese prescence. I shall change our play.

Found it. Powers that begin the game neutral. You can, but only on the turn you declare war.

I read it and do not generally forget what I read. Cannot prove it, as I am at work. Hope someone confirms for you. In A&A cannot be attacked in your own go, so makes sense. It is your  combat move, not his.

I put other, because I thought it was balanced.

They can still load.

Thank you for helping the other side! We shoot traitors in Italy you know? My allied opponents are up to the task of defeating me. We play for fun and there is lots to be had even in defeat. I do hate hearing people say the Axis always win, so well done for putting this up.

No. Can only enter to attack the Japanese.

Apart from possibly building a Destroyer to protect their Cruiser, I do not know why Russia would not spend all their money on Infantry. I hate Russia for the endless number of Infantry I have to  smash up to get anywhere. It is almost depressing! No one unhappy or irked by US massive peacetime economy?

I am happy with the set up, but would reduce US starting income by 10. (could be Central US’s 12.) When at war they get it back. Instead of the 20, they get 30 plus Phillipines and France 5&5. Not collecting Central’s 12 would make for a better Europe only too, in my opinion.

I really do not think Russia needs any more help. Do you not think starting income of37 and a probable 5 NO(12 or 13inf) is enough to keep Germany out? I think Russia is just right as it is.

I place them and they move after Italy. Is a bit daft I know, as they were under UK command in the war. Should attack and move with UK and be allowed on their transports too. Do people even place them? Makes Italy’s task harder . Impossible actually. I cannot defeat the Allies, as Italy never gets above 26IPCs in my games.

Subs can only enter the Med via Gib, not Suez.

Blame the booze. Of course a Sub does not count.

Transports are the only ship that do not stop  the NO. Even a Sub and an empty Carrier do.
