AAA into Friendly Neutrals

[Limo]

Knowing that AAA can’t convert a friendly neutral territory:

1. can an AAA move into a such territory (without converting it?)
2. can a transport unload an infantry and an AAA in a friendly neutral territory (in the NCM phase) converting it?

Yes, you as long as you include that inf.  I usually take Sumatra with an inf and an AAA gun.

An AAA can’t convert a friendly neutral?
Sounds logical but I couldn’t find it in the rules  :-o. Not that I even dunnit, but still.

I can’t find it in the rulebook either, but I know I have seen it stated somewhere that AA guns can not activate a friendly neutral. Maybe it is in the FAQs.

Except Sumatra is not a neutral territory.

Page 28 of the OOB Europe rule book

Infantry, artillery, mechanized infantry, tanks, and AAA
(antiaircraft artillery) can attack and defend only in
territories. Only infantry, artillery, mechanized infantry,
and tanks can capture hostile territories or convert
friendly neutrals. All can be carried by transports.

Thanks, I was looking for that the other day.

As it is written, it’s not clear if the answer to my question 2 is yes or no.
And what about my first question?

1. No.
2. Yes.
