Clarification needed…. Russia/Berlin captured on same turn

[Gunngrinner]

Hi. Hoping for a little help. In our Global A&A game, Germany took Russia’s capital and plundered the IPCs. On Russia’s very next turn, they took Berlin. Does Russia plunder all the IPCs from Germany, and if so, can they use uncaptured factories to place new units on their next turn?

Thanks!

Does Russia plunder all the IPCs from Germany,

Yes. By the rules (e.g. rulebook 1940 Europe SE), page 21, “You collect these IPCs
even if your own capital is in enemy hands.”

No. Rulebook (same page) says: “The original controller of the captured capital is still in the game but can’t collect income from any territories he or she still controls and can’t buy new units. The player skips all but the Combat Move, Conduct Combat, and Noncombat Move phases until the capital is liberated.”

Hi Gungrinner

What a bummer. At least the Germans won’t be able to buy anything next turn either :)
