I have another concern:
What if Italy/Germany pushes everything against Calcutta and/or Sydney while keeping the US at peace? (With Japan getting in position to conquer the last 2 VCs (HK and Manila) and doing so just after the German turn?
You have 50+ ipcs a turn and a major factory in india.
I can’t see the Italians making it to conquer Sydney before Russia and the USA are in the war.
