Hi all,
I haven’t been on the forums in a while and am scheduled to play again today. What is the best version to play? If you could add a link to set up that would be nice.

@Nippon-koku:

Better question: Why did I buy extra French units from HBG? I’ve never even used them…

Haha! Now that is dedication to the French

5 cent carriers were such a good deal! I bought 4 of them. I bought another $7.00 of French units too.

Then I realized… dafuq did I need 6 Carriers for? France never even builds one, let alone 6!

@poloplayer15:

Young Grasshopper has the right idea. The only way that you and your group will get better is by beating him. Each game you will get better. you will minimize your mistakes and capitalize on his. This is how i became a better player. my friend would always crush me. his German juggernaut verses my pathetic red army. Now its pretty even every time Barbarossa happens, and its not just on one front. Its world wide i can stem his advance or cripple his force so much he has to think twice before attacking.

On top of that, try to play against multiple different players, either on this forum, or on TripleA. You can learn a lot of new and effective strategies.

True… but if Japan’s choices are destroy the american pacific fleet, destroy the joint indian/chinese army, or destroy the russian army- they probably kill american fleet utterly, buying them several turns of dominance in the sea to systematically win asia.

@Omega1759:

@ErwinRommel:

You can try to “mirror” the �� airforce and fleet (you need some amount of trannies) and park it at carolines. Dont build ground force with anzac, only fleet and air. Pick up every money island you can. Trade trannies with japan.

No ground at all with Anzac at all? It seems like a good idea to keep some ground to prevent a “shoot for the 6th victory city”, as well as troops to contest the islands.

The Anzac fleet is only useful for blockers / attrition battles / adding defensive punch to the US fleet. That is useful, but it is important to stay alive and contest the money Island.

All warships from America including loaded carriers and transports, all in Queens land. Get the Philippines back with enough to hold the sea zone. purchase lots of loaded transports for ANZAC and land them in the Philippines for support, along with all three starting ANZAC fighters for scramble opportunity.

@Young:

Take and hold half of China
Take and hold Calcutta
Take, hold and liberate Dutch Islands
…… That should make Japan successful enough.

Japan in a nutshell. Perfect summary.

@Gargantua:

Yea… I Just wanted to talk some smack. HOWEVER there is a Singular truth.

This only applies to GLOBAL in Europe you lose the -2 for France… This is what spawned my original thought - as my last game I only scavenged 17 from France!

But… if France conquers North Italy, their income goes up with 4, no? That would make 21 IPC! Et voila!
