Please define Africa for the purpose of Italian Surrender?
-
All the territories between Morocco and Egypt inclusive (including the Sinai) and between Egypt and South Africa inclusive + Madagascar.
-
Thanks.
Actually, Sinai was the issue here. The It transport has survived a number of naval combats, and so It can get the chance to avoid a DR for surrender by invading Sinai(unoccupied). Between what's left of their fleet, a paratrooper or two etc, in all likelihood they could grab another spot, but we wanted to make sure if Sinai counted.

What happens to Sea zones a country controls when it surrenders?
Italy just surrendered, but had a cruiser in the eastern med when it did.
What I want to do is move transports strategically through the eastern Med now. The axis trapped a bunch of transports in the Red sea, the It fleet trying to be useful before surrender and the damaged yamato.
I still cannot move into the indian ocean because despite yamato being destroyed by air power, there is still a japanese control marker.
What happends to the IT control marker in the eastern med when Italy surrenders?
Rules say you need to control, but is there sucha thing as a neutral sea zone?
I am playing right now and assume that the sea zone must be flipped frst before the transports can strat move....IE it mus be flipped at the start of the turn. I have surfce ships and so I know I can stac move.
-
When the Italy surrenders, remove everything Italian - including all control markers. They are neutral zones that you can freely move through strategically.
-
Thanks.
That's not how I played it.
US/CW just blew their attack on Rabaul, which would have been game ending. In consideration of this I'll allow the Allows to go a turn extra.
