Russia’s First Turn:
-Build 8 armies
-1 fighter (Karelia) attacks Baltic Sea
-1 sub and 1 transport (Karelia) attack Western Spain Sea
-3 infantry and armour (Karelia), 2 armour (Russia), 5 infantry (Causcasus) attack Ukraine
-2 infantry (E.N.O.) to Yakutsk
-1 armour (S.F.E.) to Yakutsk
-1 fighter (Russia) to India
-3 infantry (Yakutsk) to S.F.E.
-2 infantry (Russia) to E.N.O.
-2 infantry (Russia) to Karelia
-Baltic fighter lands on Ukraine, Caucasus or Russia
-place 3 infantry on Karelia
-place 5 infantry on Russia
This leaves S.F.E. with 5 infantry and Yakutsk with 2 infantry and 1 armour. There are also 2 more infantry on the way from E.N.O. India is defended by 2 fighters and 2 infantry.
UK’s First Turn:
-Build IC on India and nothing else. (this saves 15 ICs for next turn, allowing you to build 3 armours on India, an aircraft carrier in UK’s own water, and still have plenty of cash for other stuff)
US’s First Turn:
-Group the fleet together in the Pacific and start pressuring Japan early. It is up to you whether you want to attack Japan with navy and airforce or build an IC in Sinkiang. Either way, Japan is already in huge trouble.
So, now Russia has strong defenses in S.F.E. and Yakutsk. UK has a very tough IC in India. And US is also putting heavy pressure on Japan. What should Japan do? Is there any way to counter a cooperative attack from all three allies in the first turn? Please tell me that Japan is not stopped as easily as it appears to be.
