I sometimes run into players who use this strategy…
as axis, they try to save up infantry for a few turns and keep it close to France and Karelia. Then when they have enough infantry to hold France, They stack as many units on Karelia and France as possible and try to score a VC victory by picking up Hawaii and finishing India around the same time. Their position at this point is a pure mess if they were forced to continue playing but they try to make it just hard enough to stop them from getting their one turn hold.
I wanted to know if anybody with more experience has a decent recipe for playing well against it. Is there any way to do it other than buying naval units for Hawaii? How do you play in Europe vs. this strategy?
Sorry if my question is too broad.
Thanks in advance.
Where is Burma?

I have the first edition 1942 board, and am trying to run with 2nd edition rules.
The set-up chart calls for a unit in Burma, but I don’t have Burma on my 1st edition map. What gives? -
The differences between 1942 first edition and second edition are:
- different territories
- different borders
- different sea zones
- different IPC
- different set ups
- (partially) different rules
- different sculpts
So, 1942.2ed is NOT just the same game as 1942.1ed, but a completely different game! “Second Edition” in this context does not mean “Newer production line of the same product with the same content” (e.g like the uncountable versions of monopoly), it’s more or less a completely new game.
