Building ICs…

@panther thanks for the quick reply. I was referring to 1940 Pacific SE. You are absolutely correct though. The US starts off as a Major IC on the original box setup. I have a different organizer now. It only has the global setup custom printout on it. Thanks.

@ampdrive said in Where to place US IC ?:

I’ve always assumed that UK and Anzac units,when NOT at war with Japan ,can go to FIC while it still is owned by France

I think that their units can go to FIC but they don’t receive the territory’s income

Oops, didn’t realize you were planning on building it US 2. US does not go before Japan.

You can only build them on your own territories (that you have controlled since the beginning of your turn).

Welcome, theSonalsorises!

No.  UK still controls Malaya.  If Japan captured Malaya, then another Allied power recaptured it while Japan still held India, that power would then control Malaya and could build an IC there.

Dylan the Canadian, I see your question got mixed up in your quote.

@Dylan:

Okay thanks, but 1 more thing do you by upgrade a Minor you need to have a territory with 3 IPC’S like Machuria

Yes, to upgrade a minor IC to a major IC (cost 20 ipc) the territory that the minor IC is on would have to be worth at least 3 ipc (like Manchuria or Korea). You should keep this in mind if you buy a minor IC, and may want to upgrade it later.

One other thing about Manchuria is that it is Chinese, so the allies can’t build an IC there. Japan can build an IC there (must have control), but if the allies (including China) liberate it then the IC is removed from play. Its kinda bitter sweet though, at least your enemies won’t be able to use it against you.

There are rules that list what happens when a facility becomes inoperable. losing their AA ability isn’t on the list, they still have it.

I guess Manchuria will be also an option in global game if non-agression pact is not the game
