Yeah, I’ve read that and I believe it. I think until 1943 or 1944 the Americans had more ground units in the Pacific?
Yeah, the US built a ton of ships. For some reason the US never gets to seemingly similar numbers in the game.

@SuperbattleshipYamato would you recommend buying some planes to support areas that already have a lot of ground units that way you could quickly maneuver them into Russias own defense
-
Instead of using expensive ground units that won’t make it back
-
That could work, and if I commit to sending units to China as the Soviet Union, I generally like to send the planes from Moscow. However, time is of the essence and I feel even a 1 turn delay severely limits the ability of the aircraft to be useful (especially since we’re investing so much in China and the Far East, meaning that Germany will have an easier and probably quicker time getting to Moscow).
Still worht a try though. Wanna start a game with me?

@barnee buy R1 a fighter and by R2 you can have the entire russian airforce plus tanks and mechs in szechwan so China can keep its ground against a Japanse air strafe and thus retake its bonus on China 2.
-
yep can be done. Attacking early with the soviets against japan is a mixed bag I think.
@The-Captain @VictoryFirst what do you guys think ?
Do you play on triplea @Cornwallis ?
Edit
Oh you obviously do. My bad :) -
Hehe not sure what this thread is about but yeah, containing Japan can be done. Just keep the Russian units on the Manchurian border as a threat. Use the American fleet to make threats where Japan is weak (i.e. the South Pacific or the North Pacific). Use British fighters to support Russia and India. You don’t have to take any aggressive actions. Just putting your troops where they can pose threats forces them to defend, slowing down their expansion, and if they don’t defend that’s when you strike.
Attacking early as Russia is possible but quite risky. Pressure and attacks from all sides are necessary. However, usually it’s Germany in these scenarios who will become super strong and take Moscow. You can contain Japan however it’s much harder to defeat it. You need to wait for them to make a mistake. It’s often easier to defeat Germany.
However, I must say that it has been a very long time since I last played OOB G40, so you have to take my thoughts with a grain of salt.

@barnee I just tried this they did not even try to attack the horde which lead china to take back their southern territories eventually Japan attacked but lost their entire army and most of their planes
-
yea you can lose a few planes as JPN if needed.
I always want to keep them all though lol
-
I’d probably only do this strategy if America is going pacific because Japan did not buy boats so they could replace there army and Air Force leading ANZAC to take the money islands
-
@barnee you don´t cancel the mongolian rule by landing planes and tanks in Sezchwan so it doesn´t have a negative impact.
Haha yes but there i prefer Lebowski 1939. You? -
heh heh long time since I checked lebowski out :)
On The Captains G 40 kick these days :)
