@thrasher1 Our group plays China at War, Turkey at War, Fighting Railways, and Diplomacy. We have played others, but those 4 are our favorites. Diplomacy is starting to wear out it’s welcome a bit, as far as I’m concerned. It adds a lot of fun to the game, but it heavily favors the Allies. Some games it can really swing things.
Russian Strats

I was wondering if anyone has really good russian strategies. Whenever i play russia, i always loose Leningrad the turn russia goes to war, or the turn after. So turn 5 or 6.
Also, Russia always seems to fall turn 6 maybe 7 or 8.
We play with :
Landmines
Navalmines
Trucks

I build fortifications in Moscow and don’t let any units die defending Leningrad. Even though it’s an important strategic point, it’s just not worth fighting for against all that German armor. I just do a fighting retreat 'til there’s a western front. Other than that, I don’t really know what else a guy can do.

Hi ZoneDefence,
Welcome to the forum.
While they do not deal with Global 1939 in particular, there are some very interesting discussions regarding Russian strategies in the Axis and Allies.org forums.
Type “Russia Strategies” in the search bar above and you will find a wealth if information. You will need to separate the wheat from the chaff, but good, relevant strategies are there to be found. You can then adapt or enhance them in your Global '39 games as you see fit.
Good luck and, most of all, have fun!!!
