    It really depends on wether you are playing KGF or KJF as a strategy…

    If you play KGF, the conservative way you wrote about is pretty good… Keep Hawai and Australia save…
    If you play KJF, the best way is to be very agressive…

    I like to keep my fleet in the first rounds at sz11, because from there you can go either KGF or KJF… All depends on which politcal mistakes, or strategy your opponent makes…

    When you feel secure in the Atlantic (London), and Japan really is agressive towards the Islands in early in the game, you can better go directly towards Japan, because Japans fleet is more then likely scattered across the map, and is sometimes not within reach of Japan itself… Even if Japan is unobtainable, your secondary goal (which is) Korea can be taken… Korea and the occupation of sz6/7 is a very good position for the U.S. fleet… When you have taken Korea, you can build a IC/airbase (perhaps a harbor) there… Always try to secure Korea with either the Russian forces or a lot of ftr’s as follow up (trough Hawai or directly on sz7 ac’s)… That way you could retreat your fleet when it becomes threatened, but keep Korea… In the meantime Anzac and UK pac can take back Islands in the Pacific… Its a risky move when not executed well, but if done right you can really hurt Japan…

    Guderian and his Actung Panzer! did revolutionise land warfare in 1940. Everyone else was still using tanks to support infantry, be used mechanised infantry to support tanks.

    Just use more bodies until it slows then down… a little different from the steel rather than flesh approach of the Brits and Yanks. Stalin never seemed too bothered my the body count.

    This is a good movie to see what the Japanese plans were with the Navy and what their goals were doing so… It starts at 2.20…
