It is best to buy Mechs and can open and support Germany on the East Front. If the opportunity arises, and the U.K. and US player allow it, buy a DD to keep your convoying down. Don’t make it easy for the Allies to deny you income. German Fts often have to park in Rome to scramble to sink Subs.
Playing Italy is about bothering the Allies, forcing them to spend in the Med, when they want to go East, towards the ME.
Starting Income

What is the starting income for USA in the global A&A second edition. Is there a pre war and a declared war income difference?
-
52.
It gets National Objectives, once at war, which can add up to 30 more. At the start, however, it usually will only get 3 of them, which add up to 20 more income. -
Actually, it would be eligible for 25 extra IPC in National Objectives, unless the Philippines were taken by Japan. But yes, 52 in initial income.

Thank you!

I think wittman is referring to the probability that Japan will declare war first and take Philippines so that objective is never obtained by USA.

52 Prewar
77 War (If Japan didn’t take the Philippines)
79 War (If the USA takes Brazil and still have the Philippines)Basically America has 25 IPC worth of NO cash if they declare war and lose nothing.
