I normally maintain peace with the west and go after USSR & China. There’s a possibility of a UK2 DOW with that. I think USSR’s best response is to hold in Buryatia. Those troops aren’t getting back to Moscow in time anyway. I’ve never seen USSR helping out China but maybe it would make sense if there’s no UK2 DOW? The Soviet air force could defend against strategic bombing G3 and also defend Yunnan J3. Never thought about that before.
Major IC in Romania G1

I’m starting to realize that Mechanized Infantry should be Germanys weapon of choice, especially on the eastern front. However, I’m still thinking about a Minor IC in Romania (later in the game) just so I can combine a few artillery each turn.

Mech inf. can’t stand alone.
They should be along for speed and fodder. Not the weapon of choice. You need something that can kill off the enemy - not just soak up the damage they do to you. -

I was thinking:
Buy 7 artillery turn 1. (save 2 ipc)
Also move all starting artillery to Russia. (use planes to kill the French, and limit the naval battles to kill UK trannies and destroyers)
Now you got a lot of artillery on the eastern frontline that later mech buys can exploit. -
