Can Russia build ships in sz 100 and then move through the straight?

There is no way to hold India if Japan plays a capture Calcutta at all cost opening strategy. It will fall and Japan will get a bit more income. Meanwhile, they will not be able to control China and will be missing out on big income from Pacific islands. Celebrate if they are putting a huge fleet in SZ39 because ANZAC + China will have huge income for the foreseeable future.

Most players won’t reinforce China with USSR if it looks like Germany is going to drive into USSR.

What if the US Navy backs off Hawaii.

It’s great to get ANZAC in the beginning of the game, however, what are the disadvantages? How much does India or China grow. Obviously other factors come into play in such a dynamic game as G40.

I think liberating ANZAC is much harder for the US to do than the UK, but it’s easier than say India or Moscow.

Another purchasing strategy you may consider is 1 fighter and the rest inf.  First couple of turns you should be able to do 9 inf and a fighter.  Helps with bombing raids on Moscow and those 4’s can really come in handy in big battles.

yeah, what captain of an oiltanker would travel without an escort to london hoping the germans would just let him pass?

and would the german captain really let him pass?

@Gargantua:

It’s not about when you attack but how…… Erosion is the name of the game.

This is the best part of this whole thread, and i totally agree with that.

Personally, i have attacked Russia on G2, G3, G4 and even G5 after Russia attack Germany on R4…All of them are viable. It depends, as Garg was pointing out, on HOW you do it.

The transports can retreat, but they can’t unload.

@jeffdestroyer:

thanks,  I did not put the air base/naval/factories up yet

yeah, that’s weird. The capital actually has a minor factory! It’s like ANZAC not having a naval base on NSW
