Do you get these bonuses if you control the territories at the beginning of your turn or at the end?

Oh, yes you are right.  I meant Baltic states.

I wasn’t suggesting not attacking, just a change in tactics.  In my scenario the only territory you wouldn’t necessarily take would be Ukraine.  You could make an attempt at ukr with 1 inf, 1 Art and 1 fighter against 2 inf.

The point is to take Karelia on g2 and thus gain an IC on russia’s door step fast.  I do admit that the potential R2 counter attack might negate this.

What do you think about massing 6 tanks, 6 infantry, 2art minus battle losses in Baltic States first turn along with 4 infantry in Finland.  Then on G2 send a tank & inf amphibious assault from Berlin plus whatever air you can spare against Karelia turn 2?

Alternatively you could split your tanks between Balkans and East Poland in the hopes of holding both for a blitz to Karelia with the tanks on G2.

Russia Will have 9 Inf, 1 art, possible 1 tank + its builds for defense.  UK might send a fighter or 2 for defense as well and/or sink the transport.

For my G1 buys, I would concentrate on land units.  You are looking at a massive Russian counter attack on R2 considering Russia will probably just buy offensive units on R1.  As such it will be important to be moving up reinforcements early

Also, to me it seems like there is only 2 infantry in East Poland and Ukraine.
