As US, taking Spain can be an option to stretch out the german atlantic defenses.
i’ve taken spain in a good 1/4 - 1/3 of my allies games.
Spain - Good for getting troops into Europe if your short on transports.
Mongolia - Good for stretching the Russians out further.
Argentina - Connects to Brazil, scares Americans
Sweden - I’ve seen some germans retreat their Finland guys here with limited success
Switz - Japaneese IC can be useful.
Switz - Japaneese IC can be useful.
But since Switzerland has no IPC’s at the beginning of the game, can Japan produce anything there?
Right from the rules…“New complexes on territories with no income values like Gib. or Soloman Islands or on neutral territories allow the introduction of one newly purchased item per turn.”
yup your right but what about one in sweden for japan
:lol:
Which neutral country is probably the most useless? I’d have to vote for Eire. What do you guys think?
I guess it’s only way to become useful is to have situation where Russia still stands, but the UK have fallen. Then it can serve as a landing area for US planes…… but that use is very limited.
Personally, when playing Germany i find taking Turkey as a benefitial thing. Sure it costs IPCs, but it puts the British in a terrible condition in the Mid East, and leading to a easy victory between Japan and Germany :D
the most usless? Id have to say afganistan
Turkey can be very good to take. Swden ca be a real nuissance for the Allies as they try to dislodge Germany from there.
spain is a great choice if you attak WE and spain the same time
Most useful: probly Spain or turkey
Least useful: Afghanistan (maybe Ireland)
ireland can be used, the least is saudi arabia. who the heck would take that?
change mind for least usful, now-sudia arbia
How is taking turkey beneficial? I’m assuming you are saying there is a land bridge between East Europe and Turkey? Is that in the rules?
its not in the rulrs because it would be too powerful
Most useful: probly Spain or turkey
Least useful: Afghanistan (maybe Ireland)
Ireland has no use unless you are playing the Cold War scenario in Iron blitz. then it’s worth 1 IPC.
cant use saudi in iron blitz now canya
