If your playing a smart player, who does not “Pearl Harbor” with Japan and uses the Navy to take India which is basically Impossible to stop. Do not buy Industrial complex turn 1. Wait and see if the Japan player does “Pearl Harbor” or not if he does then you should be safe but i would wait until turn 2 or 3. Don’t forget about the 2 infantry and transport in Australia they help defend India very well, Also the transport can move Infantry from Africa to India (after Germany has been removed from Africa). My favorite UK strategy is to fly fighters from India to Russia “Moscow”. Creates a brick wall of infantry and fighters to setup a long game to use the Allied 3 turn advantage to win. Its hilarious to watch Germany throw tanks and infantry trying to wear down Russia and the 10+ UK fighters and Russian Infantry just obliterate them.
My J2 move mistakes

I don’t know the exact SZs but usually I destroy the US pacific fleet during J1 and purchase 2 trns and a factory in SouthEast Asia (I think it’s called Siam, again forgive me for not saying the exact location). My problem is after that I don’t know what to do. The US will begin to build steam, I don’t use the Indian fleet for fear of mutual destruction with the Brits and I don’t know whether to focus my strength on India or China/Sikang or both.
Thoughts and advice?

I always liked this wall of text by Bunnies. It gives an overview of the first turns for both sides in a KGF kind of game. Perhaps you will find it useful.
