Buy mech/armor at a 1-1 ratio, simple as that from g2 onward. You pretty much should get russia G5 6 or 7

@Nippon-koku:

Better question: Why did I buy extra French units from HBG? I’ve never even used them…

Haha!  Now that is dedication to the French

5 cent carriers were such a good deal! I bought 4 of them. I bought another $7.00 of French units too.

Then I realized… dafuq did I need 6 Carriers for? France never even builds one, let alone 6!

All infantry - best defense rating for the money and longest staying power due to a greater number of them.

True… but if Japan’s choices are destroy the american pacific fleet, destroy the joint indian/chinese army, or destroy the russian army- they probably kill american fleet utterly, buying them several turns of dominance in the sea to systematically win asia.

Fantastic!  Thanks Bob!

AFAIK you can land UK/Anzac aircraft on any DEI, you just cannot reap the IPC benefit unless you also land ground units there.

It’s also good to have some ANZAC fighters closeby or in your US pacific fleet (they can land on a US air craft carrier).

When US troops get ashore somewhere, they can land and give a strong extra defence (in Alpha3),
and on islands where there are airbases already, they can scramble as well.

An accompanying ANZAC destroyer (and/or sub) or 2 can also be of value, in case some risky US attack doesn’t go as planned, the ANZAC units can still fix certain problems (taking out something with a sub/DD + fighters, or blocking enemy fleet if needed).

Anyway, teaming up pays off.

For the sake of it, has anyone played a 1 v 1 v 1. Germany/Italy/France vs Russia/China/Japan vs UK/US/ANZAC ?
