Just bought this version and think its pretty good.
KGF is the best strategy in this game by far. The Soviets should pull all their eastern infantry first turn into Yakut providing a large 10 infantry stack easily defensible by adding roving defense from fighters or the odd armour.
Russia attacks WR with almost everything, leaving 5 inf in caucaus(pull back two inf from east, raise 4 infant and place at end of turn creating 9 men and 2 ftr defense)and Belorussia with two ftr and 2 inf leaving 1 behind to prevent a blitz, eliminating important fodder for germany and creating a pyhric victory for Germany because they will attack one of the two large build ups and possibly even losing if dice go bad. Russia can then cut off the force, expand and counterattack eliminating a large chunk of G armour.
The british sacrifice india and pull back to africa with their navy, securing the mediteranean and build a complex in egypt, securing englands holdings in africa and supporting the southern defense of russia through transjordan/persia, this also threatens germany’s underbelly and takes away German IPCs permanently from northern africa.
The US concentrates on a navy bridge with two parts to bridge between eastern canada and western europe. Half way through this phase, the UK can clean out Norway but not take and the US takes it on turn 3 and builds a complex in norway turn 4. By turn four you should be able to have an untouchable allied combined fleet with the UK and US being able to land 4 trans/turn on west europe. This could happen quicker depending on losses in the first turn because this plan is based on losing all allied naval pieces turn 1 except for the british battleship and transport (reinforced by russia sub)which should survive against one ftr and sub. This has worked very well for me.
Strategic planner vs. nutbar game updates

Well, we’ve lurked around this site since roughly february or so and have had this game for roughly 10-11 months. I had an idea that since some people wanted to know how we play to help us, we will give you updates on a game of ours. Please post advice on this thread as we play the game so we can do a pre and post analysis. Strategic Planner will be axis and nutbar will be allies. For advice, please post the country, turn # and if you can, please do it for the most recent turn. After the game ends if you want to, please tell us where we went right, wrong, and what we could have done better. Here’s an advice sample.
Note, when you do turn post, do it for the next turn. Ie: if turn 3’s the turn you’re looking at, list turn advice as R4, or J4 etc.
Example: J4, build an IC in FIC, attack Bury with 1inf, and eygpt with all trans jordan units.Sorry for the long post and specific directions. Thank yall in advance. :-)
PS: You can give pre game advice.
