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.
China Can't Roll Tech???
-
Apparently a change in '40.2 is that China can’t roll for tech.
What gives with that?
I wanna turn that Flying Tiger into a Range 5 Attack 4 beast, baby!
I’ll take Advanced Artillery and War Bonds while I’m at it, please.

China was perhaps the most poor nation at that time.
They still bound women’s feet at that time which is a barbaric cultural standard.
They can’t even make their own planes, let alone tanks, etc. Thats why they buy or rig up equipment they get as leftovers.
Even got their helmets from Germany. Heck they probably can’t even make cars back in 1930-45.
Good rule IMO considering China cant build any units other than Infantry/ Art

I wasn’t even aware that China ever could buy Tech! :-o

Robbie: The Chinese Fighter never got US’s attack Tech if US gained it.
I asked once and am sure it was Keieg who confirmed it. -

I assume no one ever thought they could. But they were not explicitly excluded in the “old” ruleset.
:wink: -
Probably just a ‘Clarification’.
