These areas must be held for one complete turn by the Axis countries. There may be optionally, a twelve turn limit to the scenario. During the first few moths of the war Japan and Russia were not fighting each ohter. To reflect this, the Japanese and Russian player should not conduct combat against each other. However, if you feel that the oppurtunity is ripe and wish to pay the price for breaking a treaty, go right ahead, but it will cost the initiating player 20 IPCs: 10 to the bank, and 10 to the player he attacks. Thereafter, the treaty is broken and combat is conducted normally and without further penalties. These forces are the ones that initially setup in Hawaii. They may not be used unless ant attack by the Japanese is made on the continental United States, Alaska or Hawaii. Presently the US is only at war with Germany. These forces are on call in the South Pacific. They may not be used until the Japanese enter the Southern region of the Pacific: East Indies, Borneo, Celebes and New Guinea.
