After inflation is discovered, does it effect just the next round or all rounds after the discovery?
A55. Inflation is in effect for all rounds after it is discovered. The rule book is unclear about whether inflation discovered by the 1st player affects the 2nd player in their calculations. Our interpretation of the rule is no: We figure all players generate income at the same time, so the purchasing part of the production round is spending “old” income. The manual says inflation affects “New Production Points”. So we take that to mean any income earned at the end of the next round. Q56. How many Army pieces can a ship transfer between two regions that are adjacent to the same sea zone (i.e., when the ship doesn’t have to move)? For example, From India to Arabia via the Persian Gulf. A56. Only 5. A ship can basically load a maximum of 5 Army pieces per movement phase. You can unload pieces from a previous movement phase if they are still on the ship and then load more on. However, the maximum number of Army pieces that can be loaded onto a ship during one movement turn is 5.
