What about in cases where they are already at war?

You cannot load a transport in a seazone that is hostile UNLESS it has become hostile THAT turn due to YOUR declaration of war.
A seazone is not hostile if it has only enemy subs or transports (units that are NOT surface warships)
In cases where you are already at war, you cannot load your transport if an enemy surface warship is present.
You cannot load a transport in a seazone that is hostile UNLESS it has become hostile THAT turn due to YOUR declaration of war.
…and the transport began its turn in that sea zone.
Can the Flying Tiger from China can land in Burma when Japan and the UK Pacific are not at war?
If Japan attacks the Britain, Anzac, French Indo China while France is still with its capital, does that affect USA nuetrality
American Neutrality and Japan
If Japan attacks the UK (pacific), ANZAC, or French Indo China, does that bring the US into the war

UK or ANZAC or Dutch, yes.
FIC, no. Japan will only lose the 10 IPC NO for taking FIC, but America cannot declare war based only on FIC being taken.
Can Russia and Japan declare war on each other without impacting the mongolian thing (as long as they do not attack neighboring spots)?
Can the Flying Tiger from China can land in Burma when Japan and the UK Pacific are not at war?
Yes. “UK Pacific” is not a political entity. Both China and UK are at war (China with Japan, UK with Germany and Italy), so Chinese units may enter Burma and Kwangtung. The restriction on UK units entering China while UK and Japan are not at war applies only one way and not the other.

Yes.
.
Can Japan take French Indo Chine without losing the USA 10+ NO if France declares war first? The rules says “attack” is the prerequisite to losing the NO. Seems a little silly that France could declare war on Japan, Japan invades and the US goes into a tizzy about it.
Answer? :lol:
French declaration is irrelevant.
The NO says if Japan hasn’t attacked FIC, and says nothing about French/Japanese relations.
If Japan attacks FIC under any circumstances, she will not be getting this NO the rest of the game, period.

Thanks Krieghund!
1.) Japan attacks UK and ANZAC. Does that bring US into war. Please show where in the rule book it states this.
2.) Strategic Bombing. Do strategic bombers and tactical bombers get a shot during air to air combat.
Official Answers Please.

Yes. Page 37, Europe 2nd edition manual, under USA. If Japan makes an UNPROVOKED attack on UK or ANZAC, the USA can then declare war on any and all Axis powers. If UK or ANZ attacks or Declares on Japan before Japan attacks, then the USA would have to wait until the end of round 3 to declare, unless one of the three Axis powers attacked the USA or declared on USA directly.
Yes. Strategic and tactical bombers get to attack on a 1 in air to air combat. Page 17 of Europe 2nd edition manual. Bullet point one says attacking bombers and fighters are a part of the battle. Bullet point three says all air units have attack and defense values of 1. Krieghund has confirmed that bombers means tactical and strategic, both.
Of course, strategic and tactical bombers of the defender cannot be used, only fighters can defend. But attacking tactical and strategic bombers all get to fire on a 1.

Also: the US is not immediately brought into the war by the unprovoked attack on uk/Anzac. It remains neutral until the US turn when the US can finally declare war.

Yes, that’s why I said “the USA can then declare war”. Declarations of war only happen at the beginning of your own turn.
War is only immediate when an enemy declares war on you directly. When conditions are met, you always wait until your turn to declare war, like Russia on Euro-Axis or Japan making an attack on UK or ANZ.
You say “finally”, but USA goes immediately after Japan. We’re not playing the original anymore…

Well, despite the fact that this may be the .2 FAQ, there is still holdovers and people who read this but play OOB .1 so I just wanted to reiterate that attacking uk/Anzac doesn’t immediately bring them into the war- it merely opens the door on their turn.
So airbases and minor ics on china territories… the minor ics go poof right?
Correct. Also worth noting, China is not allowed to repair damaged air and naval bases.
