You do get manpower when at war, but you don't gain it overseas. That means no MP from India to the UK while at war.

How far is overseas exactly? Bad enough for Indonesia to get MP only from Java or fixed with some "area" defining what is and what is not?
No land connection with your capital.

Sometimes it is not useful to take out the UK since, once they move to India, they get something like 2 manpower a day =o

So a nation like Indonesia can indeed get MP only from Java (capitol's in Jakarta, right?) and not say Kalimantan and Sumatra? It still leaves them with more than some european minors but still doesn't seem right. Maybe it's something for the devs to think about?

I always found this 'feature' weird... IMO I think one should get Manpower from every provinces, oversea or not, and especially from core provinces. And we should get even more during war-time - a war-time bonus of sort.

If you find it really unfair you can always create a land connection between your home country and the one you think you should be allowed to get MP from.

I always did it If I decided to annex China as Jap. The same case for UK as Ger because I cannot imagine US or Rus to be able to prevent move across the Channel :).

But the downside is that it applies to resources too..

Yes, thats what I meant. That bug is ancient, why havent anyone fixed it yet?

I assume it bug as it makes no sense at all.

It even makes less sense now, since you can build units abroad if you have enough IC there... :(
