i like to play pacific 1940 2nd ed with my friend a lot but he always kicks my ass as the allies. both of us have the same amount of experience in the game having played pacific against each other about 3 times. every time i get bogged down in china due to the massive amounts of Chinese infantry, my navy gets destroyed by Americas in every single operation and and by the time uk gets to china and the anzac starts island hopping, its over. does anyone have any tips or strategy i could try out to help me or maybe a video that could explain how exactly i could try to pull off a victory? thanks :)
Sea Zones: Can USA and Japan share one? (if not at war)

To quote the Pacific 1940 rulebook [page 8]:
Sea zones are either friendly or hostile. Friendly sea zones contain no surface warships belonging to a power with which
you are at war. Hostile sea zones contain surface warships belonging to a power with which you are at war (this does
not include submarines and transports)So, IF the US and Japan are not at war, then it sounds to me like I could move an American fleet through (or even stop in) a Sea Zone that contains Japanese warships. (or vice-versa)
This is correct statement, is it not?
