Can you resend this file?  it doesn’t seem to load.

What happened?  You went UK then I did Spain, and then you did UK again?

I replied on the game thread, but realized you may not get it.

How can you say that so far in advance?  Don’t you need Cairo and Stalingrad?  Are you going Sealion?  London be tough with the allied fleet there.  Stalingrad may be a tough battle, but then again if its in danger he can just retreat the Russian stack to Cairo.  How do you get to 8 VCs in three turns?

It looks as though Russia messed up early by stacking the Ukraine.  You cannot hold the Ukraine, so stacking in Belarus and Western Ukraine is better early, with a fallback to Bryansk.  Then at least the bulk of your army is in Moscow.  You cannot hold Leningrad- you should retreat from there to preserve your army for later.  Russia also did not go for Iraq… why not?  This is not representative of strong Russian play.

Japan does not look very strong, not having any of the money islands, but I suppose you are just trying to win in Europe?

You mean it wasn’t like the movie ‘Saving Private Ryan’ or the video game ‘Medal of Honor: Allied Assault’ ?

What turn is Japan attacking the UK?  How are they getting to India?  By sea or by land?

If by sea, you may not be able to do much except use naval blockers.  You won’t be able to stop a Japan that throws its whole weight at India.  However, Australia, China, Russia, and the US may be able to do something to chip away at Japan.

-Australia- have at least one transport in Queensland to take back any islands Japan gets but cannot defend well.  Use DD blockers when needed and be aggressive.
-China- Hold Yunnan at all costs.
-USA- build up a fleet at Hawaii or Queensland ready to pounce where Japan is weakest.  If Tokyo can be hit Japan won’t be able to send the kitchen sink at India.
-Russia- Depends on the Europe map.  If they can afford a couple mechs here and there to China they can play huge dividends later.
-UK India- take Sumatra turn 1 (take Java turn 2 if able).  Retreat Malaya troops to shan state and move all available units (including AA guns) to Burma.  Purchase a mix of units- I prefer a couple mech inf and some inf turn 1, turn 2 a couple art and inf; turn 3 on all inf (adjust as needed).  Essentially, you want to prevent Japan from getting and holding Yunnan/Shan State.  This prevents his aircraft from a landing site if he attacks India by sea.  Use your surface ships as blockers to slow the Japanese fleet down.  Retreat to India before the assault…

If by land, you have a bit more time, and it is much harder for Japan to commit enough ground forces to take India.  Keep building up your stack and be wary of where the Japanese aircraft are and where they can hit.

In any case, you can take Sumatra turn 1 with India - and if Japan didn’t attack turn 1, you may be able to get java as well.  That gives you a bit of extra money.  Don’t worry about protecting Sumatra and Java- you won’t be able to.  However, Japan will have to attack these and they won’t be free.
