On UK2, im thinking of sending the India BB+cruiser towards Egypt. I rather use the french DD and an Anzac DD near India to block (SZ41 and 38). Also blocking SZ 37 with UK DD. Note that my Med fleet is still alive, sitting in SZ 81.
Am i crazy?

Here is the situation after my turn 2 with Russia. Im assuming he will start the attack on G/ taking the Baltic States. Note that the German has 7 infantry in Findland. What should i do to defend?

yeah but the London planes can’t go further than sz97.

I rather keep my UK planes to eventually help out Russia.

Ahhhhh the 2 London fighters can land on the carriers……took me a while to realize it…

If it’s a G3, when should the Germans reach Moscow? Should they pass everything up north to Novogrod, or also send an army to the south?

How do you hold egypt from Italy? I don’t see how i can hold it in the next few turns. Is it possible to hold it if i didn’t make an ic on the first turn?
Turn 2 starts tonight, if i see that Germany aint making transports (for sealion), should i make an ic in egypt?

Now for UK Pacific: All infantry? My UK fleet in the med retreated in the egypt canal (except the destroyer). Is it worth bringing it to India, or should i stay to annoy the italians?

Is there anything useful that can be done with the russian planes? (other than attacking with your infantry)
-
RE: Allies basic strategyposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
Well ok, but i don’t really see it happening for the Russians. Im going all infantry/artillery.

Russia:
Is it better to let the Germans take Ukraine or Novgorod and then to counter attack? This way, your stack of russian infantry don’t get hit by all the german planes. -

Is it useful to use 2 american fleets in the PAC? Meaning one at Hawai (or up north), and one with Anzac.

RE: Allies basic strategyposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
With the minors in USA, you can only take out 3 ships in the pacific while not at war. Might as well bring out the big boys (I bought 2 carriers for the PAC).

RE: Allies basic strategyposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
BTW 10 infantry on UK1 in London is impossible…

RE: Allies basic strategyposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
USA: I put two carriers and a DD in the Pacific. Put 2 subs in Atlantic.
For turn 2, ill probably make 2 DD and 6 subs

RE: Allies basic strategyposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
In any case, i moved the ships to block a seazone for when he decides to attack (probably turn 3)

RE: Allies basic strategyposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
We did turn 1 last night (well not completely, its Italy’s turn).
Germany:
- he built a carrier with destroyer and sub
- he didn’t sink my whole fleet (i retreated to Canada)
- took France but not Normandy
Japan:
- All out on china
- Made a factory on the mainland
Against Japan, i believe i should hit Korea with the Russians. He has nothing in Korea, and the korean infantry are now in Manchuria. Does it really matter if i don’t get the Mongolian troops? I know he wouldn’t attack Russia, so i need to help China. Sent my first american ships to Queensland. For UK Pac, i made anti-air.
Against Germany: I made infantry in London, and still have all my planes + the fighter from Gib. I think he wants to feint a hit on London but actually hit Russia. Are the russian ships useful at all?
