i like to play pacific 1940 2nd ed with my friend a lot but he always kicks my ass as the allies. both of us have the same amount of experience in the game having played pacific against each other about 3 times. every time i get bogged down in china due to the massive amounts of Chinese infantry, my navy gets destroyed by Americas in every single operation and and by the time uk gets to china and the anzac starts island hopping, its over. does anyone have any tips or strategy i could try out to help me or maybe a video that could explain how exactly i could try to pull off a victory? thanks :)
Please Help!

I own the old AAM Pacific Board - How does the New Pacific 40 board compare to this.
I knw Russia is included with a few Territories, Cananda seems to be split, but aside from that - do we get more sea zones (a few - many)? Are there more island territories (sees because somewhere I heard there is a French island (new Caledonia?)?
Did China get more territories?
In other words how do the 2 maps compare…
Thanks in advance!
Here is a link to a picture of the board.

SO yes difference but not as much as I remember now that I am looking at the old board. Still enough different shapes of the zones. Mostly what Islands connect to what sea zones.

EDIT:
This one is the new board and might be slightly better to be able to see the different sea zones.

Yea I had pre ordered from a FLGS but he was not going to actually order it until after Christmas and well I am in between semesters right now and work. SO I was wanting to use the time where I was just working at my job to play a game. SO canceled with him and ordered it from Amazon for 2/3 the retail.
Still would of purchased from him but he admitted he had not even ordered it yet.
