UK collects the unspent IPCs of the Germany’s player, then, even if its own capital is in enemy’s hands. See page 21 of the Europe 1940.2 rulebook.

Don’t abandon Egypt. Build a factory T2 there. you can hold this pretty easy if played right. Of course this all depends on whether or not Germany builds a lot of transports on T2. Also if Germany doesn’t build a carrier and 2 transports attack SZ97. If he does it might be best to retreat the med

@calvinhobbesliker:

Yes, the US baited Japan, which is why they left all their Battleships at Pearl Harbor instead of secretly removing them

i don’t believe they did it on purpose, cause it made them incredibly vulnerable. perhaps they did it at phillipines and guam and wake and such, which would surprise me cause of the stiff resistance offered at those places.

You give the answer yourself. It’s not possible.

Okay…thanks for the clarification!!!

Okay so I have some questions about the split income

First: what will Yukon Territory and BC be part of UK or India.
Second: what about West India, like it is on the Europe 40 bored, but like its part of India, though.

BC will be part of India, as will Yukon, but Yukon doesn’t matter unless you want to build an air base there.

West India will be part of UK

that seems silly

It’s worth a lot to have a rule that’s easy to specify, understand, and implement in an already complicated game.

I smell a house rule coming. Wow I can not believe I said I spell a house rule, wow I suck lol.

@McMan:

If the game is fun and balanced, why add more rules for historical accuracy? It gets too complicated.

How is putting a French infantry in Britain complicated?

I think he was referring to the suggestions for Vichy France rules that were cropping up.

If French units were shuttled to England to save them from the blitzkrieg when France fell, and the game is starting before the fall of France, why would we assume that there would be a significant number of French units in England at the start of the game?

@maverick_76:

Am I wrong or does the game start right after Dunkirk? If it starts right before it then we would just probably transport them ourselves. If it doesn’t then I would say that for the sake of simplicity they should not start off with any units in the UK. But that is just me saying that for ease of setup.

I’m with maverick here, perhaps it will be advantageous for France to pull any surviving units it might have from the coastal or Vichy territory (assuming they also have a surviving transport in range) to Engalnd (or perhaps Africa).  This would match history, but I don’t see any basis for there being a significant number of French troops in Great Britain before the fall of France to expect any French units in Great Britain in the setup.

As I said, the only time this would be good is if Russia holds all its territories and is about to attack Germany, and so Japan captures 1 territory to stop them.
