@chompers:
Quick question: As Germany, I sealioned and took UK. The US is now preparing to take it back. If the US land units in London and liberates UK, and then the following German turn I take it back, do I plunder the UK’s income again? Or does a UK turn have to go by first before I can plunder their IPC’s again?
Yes, you can only plunder again the turn after. Think of the IPC’s as cash and the IPC’s on the board as IPC value, that is less confusing, and a good reason to include paper money in this game.
USA liberates UK so their IPC value goes up abit, UK gets no cash cuz it is not their turn.
Germany’s turn: UK has no money to be taken.
UK’s turn: no money to buy units, so no fresh brits in UK. End of their turn they receive their cash, ready to be taken away again.
So unless USA brings enough troops to reinforce UK, Germany gets yet another present.
