A situation arose in our last classic edition game (first edition). Player 1 (Axis) recaptured the german capital and captured the Russian capital in the same turn. Player2 (Allies) as England captured the german capital in the next turn. Player 1 (axis) in Japan’s turn flew a plane to Russian capital. At the end of Japans turn, Player 1 announced that the Russian capital was now Japan’s territory as given by the German forces and thus Japan should collect the Russian IPCs. Player 1 said that since Germany cannot use the IC or IPC since their capital has fallen - Japan should be able to use the IPCs and the IC. Player 2 disagreed. Comments?
