@Tamer-of-Beasts I certainly don’t think that it is a perfect strategy, largely due to the Russians ability to prevent a clean sweep to Bombay, but I think that it might be good start the game. If the plan fails then it is as if the CPs just did a classic invade-Russia strategy and then can return to the west. If the plan succeeds, which I find to be very possible in many cases, then they have a shot at a quick and easy victory that no other strategy seems to achieve (at least against skilled or experienced players).
I would enjoy a game on tripleA with anyone who would like to, I just need to figure out how to play online as I have had some problems with it.
