@otahere34:
People need to read. It is not which axis country you prefer to play. It is the one you KILL first. Jeeze.
Just a suggestion, but edit (click on modify) your first post to say “kill” and problem solved.
I think this changes due to axis strats
Italy is probably the easiest to kill off, but it might be better to just contain them. Once their navy is gone, you can usually convoy them down next to nothing with some effort (if Germany is fighting in the Med to help Italy, they are lacking someplace else). Italy’s capital is exposed the most IMO. They have a hard time keeping the determined allies out of the Med. They can only build 3 units at their capital, and the allies have that deadly 1-2 punch with US/UK going back to back.
