The most effective russian players I’ve encountered are the ones that are able to build up a force that is able to threaten a counter on a german stack. If a good german player wants to go for Moscow they are able to get it, however I’ve seen plenty games where the UK/USA are putting enough pressure on the German player for him to stop just in front of Moscow. If the Russian player only has bought inf at this point there is not much of a threat for the German player to keep russia contained and slowly kill it economically. However if there is a stack of paired inf/art the pushback power is a lot bigger and thus Germany can be challenged and Russia may be able to break the German wall.
UK's National objective?

It says in alpha 3:
“5 IPCs if the United Kingdom controls all of its original territories in its European economy (see pg. 32).”
What territories are these? Do they include African? Where is this page 32?
-
Hi Der Kuenstler. Africa is certainly included, as is the British Isles(Not Ireland) ,all of Canada, Gibraltar, Malta, Iceland, Cyprus, Trans Jordan and British Guiana.
Page 32 is in the Europe Rulebook and refers to Global rules and how the UK is divided in to two economies. I do not really see its relevance here.
I suppose if you were playing Europe only you would also have to hold West India.
If you remember, in Global it was swapped for West Canada and the Pacific economy gets it instead. -
OK thanks! So basically its everywhere you see a british roundel on the Europe map, except west India, plus Ukon & British Columbia from the Pacific map?

If you are playing Global, yes.
Is not easy. You will probably only get the bonus on UK1. -

The only places they u might have trouble retaking would be malta, cyprus, and alex if germany lands planes with italian garrison. British somaliand is annoying but reclaimable. everywhere else, the allies should eb able to reclaim without too much trouble.
