Spain and the Axis
-
You will start fighting the russians either r3 or r4.
-
Will consider it as I am in a game on UK1, so still time! G1 was super lucky. Only lost a Sub to Uk(no scramble). Feeling overly cocky for once.
-
It’s definitely not the best axis strategy but it’s good for a change in a game! Good luck with it
-
Did it in turn 2 with germany, took Spain, Sweden and took Portugal and Turkey turn 3!
Totally owned Russia cuz seazone 100 gives u so many options! And opens up alot of bonusses! The major problem is tho, that US has Spain to invade from and can easily put 10 troops every turn in Spain!
Ended up winning the game major, when I crushed US/UK fleet and had a 80 ++ IPs run with Germany!
Just my 2 cents…

Don’t ignore the mountain of men and material Allies will get if Axis attack Spain and the neutrals.
That’s all the neutrals in South America, Afghan, Saudi, Angola, Mozambique. All those men become Allied and thats more money to feed the Allied economy.
Not to mention that by opening up Spain as a warzone, you give Allies an easy landing pad in Europe–from sz 91 you can land in 3 different spots. You also give the Soviets an opportunity to make alot of money by pressing the Balkans via Turkey.
The penalty for attacking neutrals is too steep for it to be a viable strategy.
-
If you can swipe Turkey, Spain, Sweden, in one turn, with MINIMAL casualties, and Mongolia is already Soviet, it’s not so bad.
Especially if you have a strict plan to conquer the middle east this way…
-
Oh AND portugal…
All before America and Russia are at war.

I wondered about Mongolia.Think you have to have Japan on board. They need to be prepared for 6 extra Inf.
-
I thought Mongolia was excluded from the whole neutral thing and is entirely based upon the Japan-Russo neutrality situation.
-
Not if they are true neutral, and Germany attacks a TN.
-
If you were going to do this, wouldn’t it be better to have Japan NOT break the pact? I would rather have the mongolians become pro-allies rather than Soviet so the enemy has to go around and activate each one of the mongol territories instead of suddenly having them all become Russian blitz-blockers all at once.
-
Now your wheels are turning Vance!

I thought Mongolia was excluded from the whole neutral thing and is entirely based upon the Japan-Russo neutrality situation.
Only partially. If the Euro Axis attacks a neutral it flips mongolia to pro-Allied just like any other neutral. However, the only way it can flip to pro-Axis is if Russia attacks one of the mongolian territories specifically.
-
So Japan has to be ready.
