Disregard the first post, I need to update for the new SE set up and rules. Something of sufficient quality with both rule changes and setup should be stickied for those who bought AAP40 earlier.
New Hebrides

OK I’ll go with McKay.
I don’t have the rules to peruse and the Rules Q&A thread that Kreighund was industriously assembling has reached the point it needs a table of contents to find any specific info.
Maybe it should be re-titled Rules QOA for “Quagmire of Answers”?

Nothing in the rules says explictly that Japan will cause a declaration of war if they take New Hebrides.
It cetianly dosnt say that France is an allied country or that FIC and NH are freindly terrtories.

It’s implied by the fact that the UK/ANZAC can take control of FIC, while Japan must attack it. I’ll get a clarification on the status of New Hebrides.

But they dont collect income for france before they take it?
And is dutch considered allied before they are taken? can you land aircraft on the dutch islands the turn you take them?

Before it’s taken, it belongs to France. France does not collect income.

If the UK or ANZAC takes control, they may land planes there on the same turn, as the territory was friendly at the beginning of their turn. If the Japanese capture it, they may not, as it was hostile at the beginning of their turn.

Ok, I didn’t know that about the Dutch Indies and allied planes.
Any word on NH yet? I can see opportunities if playing Japan and are planning on attacking the allies late (turn 3 or later).

What is the difference?
Can UK/ANZ land planes on FIC and NHeb if they are french? perhaps after they are at war with Japan, but not before?

The FAQ has been updated with a clarification on New Hebrides. It is treated in the same way as FIC.

Thanks, krieghund! My next game as Japan I will invade NH, just to see how it turns out.
If I knew how to give karma I would have given it…

Makes sense for game purposes considering the way it is marked on the map board. :-)
[Although I think historically it was jointly administered with the UK… I think.]
