You might be able to fly some US fighters to India via sub-Sahara Africa to India. If Japan cannot get India until J5, they may get there in time to save India.
Also, on turn 2 maybe the French fighter can start flying to Moscow from Scotland, than maybe get to India in time to help defend it. Or have it fly on turn 1 to sub-Sahara Africa route.
This is not a winning solution but it might buy some time.
Does it help if the Japanese march everything straight across China? They could be at Tsinghai/Kansu J4 with air units nearby to kill off the Siberians on J5.
It would certainly help except I believe Japan has a big enough task holding off the 5 countries. I like taking China down to almost nothing before US gets involved, then take DEI’s, then try to withstand a full Pacific buy from the US. In the meantime, Germany should be able to make its way through Russia and its all up to the oil fields after that.
You can try to “mirror” the ��� airforce and fleet (you need some amount of trannies) and park it at carolines. Dont build ground force with anzac, only fleet and air. Pick up every money island you can. Trade trannies with japan.
No ground at all with Anzac at all? It seems like a good idea to keep some ground to prevent a “shoot for the 6th victory city”, as well as troops to contest the islands.
The Anzac fleet is only useful for blockers / attrition battles / adding defensive punch to the US fleet. That is useful, but it is important to stay alive and contest the money Island.
All warships from America including loaded carriers and transports, all in Queens land. Get the Philippines back with enough to hold the sea zone. purchase lots of loaded transports for ANZAC and land them in the Philippines for support, along with all three starting ANZAC fighters for scramble opportunity.
NO’s aren’t collected before the game; otherwise, UK Europe would start with 34 ipcs, not 29.
UK is splt because is Empire was stretched around the globe. Money from Canada and UK and Africa more easily reach UK than India. On the other hand, the US in contingent and well connected by railways
