dumb question

[rochs77]

Ok, I have just got both AAE and AAP. I have read the rules to AAP and part of AAE. My question is about conditions for victory. If you are the axis, you can take one capitol but you must also control your own. That makes sense. Now, if you are the allies, you can take the axis capital and the rules state that "you must control your home country as well".

Does this mean that if you are the United States, and you take Japan and control your home country that the allies win, even if Japan is currently occupying India or New South Wales? I know that for Britian to win it must control both India and New South Wales, but what if Japan (most unlikely) is occupying the United States when Britian takes Japan's capitol?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Rochs

You are correct. Here is the scenario: Japan captures India, but U$A captures Japan on right away. On Japans next turn, Japan does not fufill victory conditions (Japan is occupied). On the next American turn, U$A has acccomplished it's victory conditions, and the allies win as a team (despite India).
