Initial start units

thanks the FAQ is a big help

Yes, that is the way it works.

You can land Fighters or Bombers in any territory your alliance held at the start of your move.

At the start (of the game) before anyone even moves everyone will receive their starting cash.  So in the case it is 24, 40, 30, 30, 42 respectively.  So yes it is a fixed amount and will be this way for every game.

Now, after R1 goes if they have 29, they then collect 29 to be spent on R2, and even though Germany is at 35, they still have 40 to spend (starting income). And at the End of G1 they may be up to 42 and then collect 42 to spend on G2 regardless of what happens the rest of the turns (expection: Strategic Bombing Raids).

This thread in ‘player help’ has charts for all the games that use them:

Two links previously posted for buying additional pieces.

I used Hasbro over a year ago and have a triple set of pieces.
