@thrasher1 said in Negative effects of AAZ cards for the active player?:
In general: must you play a card? Answer: Yes.
But are there any ‘buts’ here? Any gray areas in the rules?
There are none. You must play a card.
Two more issues…
(1) There is no Z-card for the Balkan territory. Was this intended?
Any reason this very area was selected not to have its own card?
(Someone also raised this in the BGG forum. So credits to this person:

(2) Russia has no port. No factory in a coastal area. So it cannot build new naval units.
Question here too: was this intended?
(And this was also brought up in the BGG forum: https://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/2085763/industrial-complexes )
)
I don’t know about the Balkan Card, but the missing port was probably intended, Axis And Allies 1941 also doesn’t have a port and the Axis And Allies Zombies map is pretty simular to it.
