AA50 Rules Errata

[Col. Flagg]

Yeah that was your game 

Unfortunately, a certain open source game shut down by a certain, idiotic company doesn't allow that move, which reinforced my confusion.

This question is vital to my strategy

Say Russia is captured by Germany, Russia surrenders all its ipc to Germany
On Russia turn, he decides not take back capital. Does Russia still collect income as normally (except that he doesn't get to use it until his capital is freed)?

I'm asking this because it is very important

No capital, no collecting your income.

So no Russian money for you!

My evil plans failed!

I was hoping to sack another capital and let my allies rescue me and use the combined pillage + income to produce an even bigger army!

[Gamerman01]

Evil is right.  And I happen to know you're not talking about Russia 
Axis_roll is correct - no capital, no collecting income.
However, I couldn't remember for sure - when your capital is under enemy control, and you take over an enemy capital, you still raid their IPC's, right?  So if you get your capital back later, you have the extra IPC's to spend?

Yup, if Russia falls to Japan, Japan collects the IPC's that Russia had.  If Germany falls to Russia, Russia collects the IPC's that Germany had but Russia can't spend it until it recovers it's capital.

Hi all,

Please help clarify the following scenario:

If I have 2 Armours and 3 Infantry in Libya and Trans-Jordan is also under my control, is it then possible for me to capture Egypt using the Inf on the combat round , and then move my Armours through Egypt to Trans-Jordan on the non-combat move??

I've seen people do it! but it seems rater odd to me!

Thanx,

If my 3Inf in the scenario above are losing can they then retreat to Trans Jordan instead of Libya??

Your answers will be highly appreciated,

No, they may not!!!!

You can only retreat to a territory from which at least one ground unit came from.  If the attackers only came from libya, they can only retreat to libya.  However, if you had just one unit joining the attack from TRJ, then the whole force could retreat to TRJ if you wanted.

[a44bigdog]

The second answer is not entirely correct. To be able to retreat to Trans-Jordan at least one of the units participating in the combat in Egypt would have had to have come from Trans-Jordan. If all the units came from Libya they can only retreat back to Libya.

[GrafZeppelin]

Duly noted!

Thanx again

Since when?  I don't have my rulebook with me right now, but since when can a unit move through an "embattled" territory during non-combat?  You can't destroy a boat and then move through the sea zone in non-combat with other boats.  I don't think land combat is any different.  If I'm wrong, I know you will correct me and show me the rule.
Thanks.

The answer is yes to both questions
