    just curious if there was a FAQ or anything for Europe 1940?

    things like:

    what territories count as “africa”

    does russia still get 2 free units in novo if Germans control moscow but not novo? 
    do they still get 2 free units if russians control moscow but germans control novo?

    can you land aircraft in friendly neutrals the turn that you take them?

    can you fly over a friendly neutral after you take it?

    germany having to have one unit in egypt… do an AA Gun count?  does a factory count?  does an air base count?

    Same for Italy requiring that there are no allied units in africa: does a fighter count?  does an air or naval base count?  a factory?  an aa gun?

  • Official Q&A

    There is no FAQ, but there are Official Rules Clarifications.

    @Veqryn:

    what territories count as “africa”

    The continent of Africa (including French Madagascar).

    @Veqryn:

    does russia still get 2 free units in novo if Germans control moscow but not novo? 
    do they still get 2 free units if russians control moscow but germans control novo?

    No.

    @Veqryn:

    can you land aircraft in friendly neutrals the turn that you take them?

    No.  Such territories were not friendly at the beginning of the turn.

    @Veqryn:

    can you fly over a friendly neutral after you take it?

    Yes, beginning on the next turn.

    @Veqryn:

    germany having to have one unit in egypt… do an AA Gun count?  does a factory count?  does an air base count?

    It must be a land unit, so an AA gun would count, but facilities would not.

    @Veqryn:

    Same for Italy requiring that there are no allied units in africa: does a fighter count?  does an air or naval base count?  a factory?  an aa gun?

    Any Allied unit of any type counts.

    do they still get 2 free units if russians control moscow but germans control novo?

    No.

    Also, In Aplha3 Russia gets +9IPC instead of the 2 units, regardless of their diplomatic status with Germany, and what territories they control.

    @Krieghund:

    @Veqryn:

    can you fly over a friendly neutral after you take it?

    Yes, beginning on the next turn.

    Does that mean that you can’t non-combat move through Yugoslavia the turn you take it? Does this apply to mechanized infantry and armor as well ?

    In your example I assume you’re talking about assuming Germany’s first turn, and Yugo is captured during the combat move phase.  it’s an “unfriendly” neutral.  By the time noncom comes about, it’s German territory and is no longer neutral.

    Veq & Krieg were clarifying the transfer of control of a “friendly” neutral, where in germany’s case, move into a “pro-axis” territory such as Bulgaria during the non combat phase.  but as all noncombat moves are simultaneous, a plane couldn’t fly through Bulgaria during the same noncombat phase as a land unit moving into it to gain control.

    Thanks for the clarification.

    I just checked the Alpha 3 thread again and did not see this rule on there.  Can you tell me where you found this?  Thanks
