@BearXxx said in Re-America- Russia.:
Can America move units, from say Alaska too, Russia. ?
As long as either of them is neutral, they can’t. Once they are allied they can.
That is some time spent at work planning this!

Since the strategy has such as excellent fall back into the Med I might not be able to resist trying.
Since you mentioned it, Gibraltar puts you in range of sz 82, which borders 4 W. African territories and puts you one turn away from the S. African UK factory. (if you were not sending units to Egypt)
You would be hard pressed to abandon this plan as USSR is in German territories, but the extra income from Africa, plus maybe a D.O.War on S. America may be necessary to get your money up. Japan will be poor too, and no help for a long while if Hollywood was scrapped mid game. It would be better to seize UK or move the transports back to 114 to get Novograd.
I would still send the subs towards the U.S. or UK whichever is safer.
Likely outcome of a failed Hollywood is a loss. Even knocking down US for a long while, would not matter with how built up USSR, Anzac, China and India would be.
Still dreaming of Berlin or Rome being +20 for holding E. US……so close
Imagine photos of Mussolini viewing New York from the Empire state building or Adolf touring Ellis Island while planning to rework the statue into a more Germanic looking Valkyrie.
If germany gets three transports of fellas to gibralter that should be enough to tip the scales in africa without giving up your capital. Now seven or ten would really kill that minor complex but things would be hairy up north!
Good thinking about moving south!
Found Reply#6 that refers to Canadian shield…i.e. operation Hollywood. They credit me and my friend for independently publishing it first :) Search for Hollywood.

EDIT:
