If you attack a neutral country and end up retreating, do the defending neutral units and the territory belong to the country whose Capital is closest?
Yes. For instance, if Germany invades Turkey on turn one, the Turkish units are USSR pieces, controlled by the USSR, and Turkey gets a USSR control marker (provided the Germans dont end up capturing the territory themselves). If the USSR player attacks Turkey, then the Turkish units are German pieces, controlled by Germany. Q: Explain the process of creating an army to defend Turkey. A: When Turkeys neutrality is violated by a player, the opposing player whose Capital is closest to Turkey rolls six dice to determine the IPCs available to build the Turkish army. This is a one-time build for the Turks; they never get to roll for additional forces. The Turkish’ units are represented by pieces belonging to the player who gets control of Turkey when it is attacked by an opponent.
