Awesome, thanks Krieghund… while you’re here, any chance we can get a brief explanation why this and the London NO for Germany were dropped in 2nd Edition?
Thanks again.
Global 2nd edition Q+A ( AAG40.2)

Karl, I’ve never heard anything different. AFAIK when the rule book says Mongolia will only become pro-Axis if attacked directly by USSR, that’s what it means.
If any other Ally attacks a Mongolian territory, the rest of the Mongolian territories will not go pro-Axis. Because they were friendly to Russia? I don’t know, but that’s how the rule book reads, so unless Krieghund comes on here and says different, than you are correct. If UK attacks Mongolia, the rest of the Mongolian territories will stand pat, and all other strict neutrals in the world will go pro-Axis if that hasn’t happened already.
that is bizarre even if it is the rule

I know
Add it to the list of all the other bizarre rules

Italy DOW Russia and takes E Poland with a tank in I2
Germany moves it’s stack to E Poland without DOW Russians in G3.
Can Russia keep a peace with Germany and attack the Italian tank ignoring German units in E Pol in R3?
If so, and if Russia takes E Pol back sharing the territory with the German units, what rules are applied to German troops in E Pol in G4? Particularly can the E Pol units attack Bel or they have to battle in E Pol or go back to Ger?
Thanks for a help with this one. -
It is only at sea that you can ignore the units of powers with which you are not at war
On land, YOU CAN NEVER ATTACK a territory that contains a single unit of a power with which you are not at war.
In your example, Russia is not allowed to attack East Poland without declaring war on Germany because German units are in East Poland.Note that Triple A does not always properly observe this rule.

UK offload inf from USA transport and attack Germany land. Germany scramble 3 fig. The USA transport is not protected by any attacking force. What’s the result? The scramble stops the amphibious attack or what?

Right. Krieghund has specifically stated that in this situation the UK would be unable to assault unless you have UK surface warships and/or aircraft that can fight the scrambled German fighters.
If you have no UK surface warships or aircraft and Germany scrambles, then the landing is not allowed and no fighting takes place - no units are destroyed. -

Any time, Q!
-
One clarification please.
If axis don’t attack USA in R3, can USA player declare war in his R3 or must he wait til R4?
I thought USA can declare war, but i see in post here that people talk about USA declaring war in R4 so I’m puzzled. -
Crobattalion: the US can declare war in the Collect Income phase of its third turn, not the beginning of its Combat Round, like all other nations do.
This means it cannot do anything agressive in its third turn: the movement restrictions are still in place. -
ok, thank you

Forgot something
If Russia attacks Korea does that change the mongolian situation?

if russia attacks korea then it cancels the mongolia russia pact.

which means the japanese can then attack russian territories bordering mongolia without the mongolians joining the russians. :-)
-
Yes
Korea was added with the 2nd edition (was not even in Alpha3) to territories Russia could not attack without losing the Mongolians.Assuming you mean Japan has not invaded a Russian territory bordering Mongolia yet.

The previous Global 1940 FAQ thread (before 2nd edition) was 219 pages (a good chunk was redundant, but still :lol:).

While a pretty deep and semi-complex game, the 1940 rule books are VERY good. I wouldn’t be exaggerating much saying 50% of the answers to questions in this post can be found in the rulebook.
-
Agreed. The answer to about half of the questions on these threads are obvious if you do a reasonable read of the rule book.
I would be happy to provide you with intensive A&A training for $50 an hour - cheaper than a college class! :-D

Urgent ruling needed!
Germany controll EP and Romania. They have 5 tank in EP and 5mec in Romania.
Bessarabia is empty russian (no units).
Can German mech attack Ukraine as they “meet” German tanks in bessarabia.
