 13.3.3 US Entry Action Details (Collector's Edition Rules, 2017)
1 Japan occupies/aligns Indo-China - Japan aligns French Indo-China but only if it is a Vichy territory (see 17.2) and there
are no non-partisan Allied units there. Japan does this by announcing the occupation during an Axis declaration of war step.
Move any Vichy units in French Indo-China to the Free French force pool. All hexes in French Indo-China immediately
become Japanese controlled.
3 Japan militarises Marshalls - 1st time Jap moves or sets the first unit in any border hex.
5 Japan may occupies/aligns Madagascar - Japan may occupy/align Madagascar during an Axis DoW step, but only if it is
a Vichy territory (see 17.2) and there are no Allied non-partisan units there. Fr. Indo-China must have been aligned (action
1). Move Vichy units in Madagascar to the Free French force pool. Madagascar hexes are Japanese controlled.

6 Japan forces closure of Burma Road - the Burma Road is one way that the Allies can transport resources and build points
to China (see 13.3.2, US entry options 9 & 17). The Axis can close it by physical occupation or Japan can also close it by
diplomatic pressure on the Commonwealth. If Japan does this, an Allied major power can't transport resources or build
points to China via the Burma Road or French Indo-China until it is at war with Japan or the USA chooses US entry option
24. China can still use the road to transport its own resources. You only have to roll a die for diplomatic closure of the
Burma Road, not for physical closure.
10 Japan occupies Chinese city: - each time a Japanese controlled land unit occupies (or reoccupies) a Chinese controlled city
in China, there is the possibility of an outrage like the rape of Nanking occurring, an atrocity to the USA public. Roll for
cities gained by conquering China but not as a result of a Chinese surrender (see 13.7.6).
12, Major power(s) DoW versus other major power - Only roll once if both paired major powers DoW against the same
13, target major power in the same impulse (e.g., CW & Fra vs. It.). A second DoW only costs half the tension if the partner
22,
24,
power is already at war with the DoW target (e.g., if Fra & It at war, Brit DoW vs It. only costs -9, not -18).
25
15 Axis invades the United Kingdom - the Axis has invaded the UK as soon as any Axis land unit occupies any hex of the
United Kingdom at the end of any Axis land combat step.
18 Axis controls Gib. (Ge/It), Singapore (Ja) or Suez (either) - Suez is occupied the instant that Axis control any adjacent
hex.
19, Minor aligned - this occurs when the minor country oluntarily aligns with a major power (see 9.6). A minor that joins a
30 side because a major power declares war on it doesn't count (see 9.5).
20,
31, Major Power declares war on neutral minor - roll for each major power declaring war on this minor this impulse.
32
21 Allies support attacked minor - the Allies have supported an attacked minor country if there are at least 4 Allied corps or
armies in the minor's unconquered home country during the Allied minor support step of the same turn an Axis major power
declared war on it. Soviet units in east Poland don't count and neither do the minor's own units.
26 USSR controls East Poland - see 19.5.1.
27 USSR controls Nazi-Soviet Pact areas (Baltic States) - see 19.5.2.
34,
35, Search and seizure - see 13.6.1.
36
37 Jap unit first enters any hex or sea area on Amer. or Eur. map - roll once per map when first entered (but not only if
Jap not at war with any of CW/Fra/Neth./US): Amer. Map: +12, Eur. Map: +24.
38 Closing Suez canal - CW may close canal any naval move step they control it (11.4.4).
39 Mining Norwegian coast - Once per game, at start of a naval step CW may roll on Norway Reaction Table (see 13.3.3,
action #39). Prereq's: US & Norway are neutral, Paris Allied controlled and a face-up CW SCS is in 4-box of Norwegian
Sea (turn the SCS face down).
X US Successfully DoWs Axis Major Power(s): This is actually a "US Entry Option" (see 13.3.2), but when it occurs it
behaves more like a US Entry Action (13.3.3), so it is redundantly listed here. See end of 13.3.2 for details.
