This is probably one of my worst games for Allies.
China is all taken by round 5, and japan is sending everything to India. I will say that Tokyo has a small navy, but it can scramble 3 fighters and I only have 2 US transports ready to invade Tokyo, which is heavily guarded. Japan controls all of the spice islands and the sea zones adjacent to India. They will do an amphibious assault on my depleted India any round now. I focused most of my ANZAC IPCs on an airforce, which is doing minor damage to the Japanese navy, and the US is taking the pacific islands, such as Iwo Jima and the Carolinas. I want to have a major attack on Japan but my lack of transports restricts me. I can liberate the Philippines, but Japan could easily delete it from their surrounding navy and their massive air force. I do have 3 full ACs, which luckily took 0 damage from all 6 kamikazes. I also managed to research super subs, so they have been helping with attacks and convoys.
The European board looks slightly better. The UK has full control of Africa, and the Mediterranean is fought over frequently. However Italy has about 18 IPCs who are causing problems in the Middle East, and they plan to flank India and the Caucuses. Novgorod will be attacked by a mountain of tanks, which will come for Moscow in a handful of rounds. I have tiny buffers in the surrounding territories, and I do have my own mountain of tanks and at least 10 infantry in Moscow, but all I can really do is build up and pray. I completely forgot to build up Stalingrad and it is currently empty, but the Axis will not reach it in 2 rounds. I did manage to take care of the german navy, and the US and UK have done a mini DDay on belgium, normandy, and Norway. However, with China being flattened and the spice islands all conquered, Japan is planning to send troops to flank Moscow through China. The far east Russians have been traveling back and if I can last 2-3 more rounds, I will get a fat reinforcement of infantry.
I don’t know what exactly to do now. I personally feel I’m putting the US all on the pacific, despite ANZAC having one of their best starts. Should I divert US IPCs more on Europe, and only focus on protecting Hawaii and ANZAC? ANZAC does control Brazil, and I am infamous for invading Rome with ANZAC, so should I also divert their attention, or just focus on being annoying? I also have a small UK navy and big UK airforce along with US bombers and tiny US transport groups, who have caused mayhem on the west, but Germany has a good player who balances defense and building a big bullet of planes and tanks for Russia
Italy does control the whole Balkan peninsula, so I cannot sneak in and steal some free pro-allied neutrals, but Egypt does have an operational factory. I also am a hot roller while the German player is the opposite, and the Italy/Japan player is average. So maybe that could help lol
