I’m playing another game as allies where Germany did the same G1 buy as here and I bought 9inf for London and 2CV for USA in the Atlantic.but I won 106 in that one and I also killed the sub in the Channel. So I don’t think Sea Lion will be on in the same way. And I also put my CV in 92 which I couldn’t bring myself to do in this game I think because Ger could attack it with a sub and planes and was likely to sink it. Also, not having a destroyer there makes it possible for Italy to attack the CV but then it has to decline to attack 97, not that many players would do so although one did even though I had the DD.

Hi guys - responding to Amon’s question about Mongolia.
If the Axis attack a true neutral, Mongolia goes pro-allied like any other true neutral. Russia does not have to declare war on Japan, but the allies would have to move in to claim the infantry same as Afghanistan, for example.

@gamerman01 I worry that your answer might be misleading.
It’s true that Russia doesn’t need to declare war on Japan for the Allies to claim pro-Allied infantry in Mongolia … but I think Amon-Sul might have been asking about Russian options specifically.
Russia does need to be in a state of war with Japan for Russia to enter pro-Allied Mongolia due to theatre-specific neutrality.
-
@Amon-Sul Haha yes very :)
-
@wheatbeer @gamerman01 @Amon-Sul I can confirm what wheatbeer writes, that Soviets need to declare war on Japan on to be able to take Mongolians.
I have another question. In the rulebook it says:
Political Situation: The Soviet Union begins the game at war with no one. The Soviet Union may not declare war on any European Axis power before turn 4 unless first declared war upon by a European Axis power or London is captured by an Axis power. It may declare war on Japan at the beginning of the Combat Move phase of any of its turns.
I interpret this that the Soviets should be able to declare war on EU axis on its turn 4. But is it first on turn 5?

Or wait to see if Japan declares war.

Soviets can declare on turn 4.
(Apologies for butting in @gamerman01 , I noticed this was a neutral crush game and those are just neat)

Apologies, i thought it was turn 4, but only 3 ;)

so just to know for future games…
if u hadnt declared war to Japan with Russia, U couldnt pick up Mongolian dudes with Russia?
But could U pick it up with (other) allies?
And could U pick it up with Russia without declaring war to Japan, once USA and UK are allied to Russia?
-
@Amon-Sul I think I needed to be at war in the Pacific theatre. Maybe @wheatbeer can confirm? All other allies could pick them up as soon as you declared war on the neutrals.
-
Right, right, this is what happens when I don’t play regularly -
Because of DOW restrictions on Russia in the Pacific map, Russia can’t leave original Russian territories in that area of the map if not at war on the Pacific map, which would mean declaring war on Japan - thanks, Wheat -

All of the following answers apply with the state of this game for Russia’s 3rd turn:
- Correct because without doing so, Russia would not be at a state of war with Japan that turn
- Correct (with the exception of China, which has its own restrictions)
- Incorrect. Russia MUST be in a state of war with Japan to move any of its units to non-Russian territory on the Pacific map.
Below I’ve quoted the relevant bits from the rules, in case that helps.
Page 35 [Europe 1940 Rulebook, 2nd ed.] rules:
The Soviet Union, due to its separate treaties with Germany and Japan, was in a unique position in its relationship with the Axis powers. As a result, if the Soviet Union is at war with Axis powers on only one map, it is still under the restrictions of being a neutral power (see Powers That Begin the Game Neutral, pg. 15) on the other map. In other words, a state of war with Japan lifts those restrictions from the USSR on the Pacific map only, and a state of war with Germany and/or Italy lifts those restrictions on the Europe map only.
From page 15:
Neutral Powers: When a power is not at war with anyone, it is neutral. Powers that begin the game
neutral, such as the United States and the Soviet Union, aren’t initially part of the Allies or the Axis. The
Axis powers are on the opposite side of these neutral powers, but they are not yet considered enemies.
While a power remains neutral, it operates under even tighter restrictions. A neutral power can’t move
land or air units into or through neutral territories. It can’t move units into or through territories or onto
ships belonging to another power or use another power’s naval bases, nor can another power move
land or air units into or through its territories or onto its ships or use its naval bases. -
