Thank you for your advice!
Some idea for the balance of AA40G

@Young:
It sounds like you need to get back to basics with the allies.
Uk London- build an invasion force that will capture and hold the Denmark straights, build enough in S Africa to prevent a total continental callape at the hands of Italy.
Protect your capitol, challenge the Italians.Uk Callcuta- protect your capital and challenge the Japs for all Dutch real-estate.
Invade and liberate China, pull the Egyptian fleet to bolster your fleet defense holding Japan back.Russia- A heavy defense mixed with selective aggression.
Hope you dont die horribly and fast. If Germany is attempting Sea Lion, go full aggression and kick their lilly white tails all the way back to Berlin. Dropping 10 transports translates into 3 rounds of armor builds in my opinoin. Get your troops forward and blitz those tanks! (Note, this is not a tank dash strategy, it’s only to get enough tanks to press forward, infantry follows to replace casualties.)USA- build a large enough invasion force that can threaten Germany after the straight is open, or at least West Germany. Build a fleet strong enough to sink the Japaneese fleet (a good US player can do all of this).
Given the changes, balance your forces. 3 Rounds of ships to counter the Japanese, 1 round of ships to block the Italians (ie, 6 ships in SZ 101 if you can). Press into Africa and keep the Italians from getting NOs as best you can, join with the Austro-English fleets and press Japan into a corner.ANZAC- take out stray Jap ships with subs or Strategic bombers, island hop and take back Phillipeenes.
Get a carrier and some destroyers, bolster the American defense.China- build Infantry in the rear, wait for Japan to spread thin, and attack.
Hope you dont die.France- walk around aimlessly in Africa.
Declare war on Japan, use your destroyer for something semi-useful like blocking the Japanese from hitting the British fleet early, or attacking wayward transports/submarines in the Pacific. Die horribly in Europe/Africa.My comments in red. Not to counterdict Young, but to add my own philosiphy along side it.

I think that until you’ve played at least 10 games against several different people at your level of ability that any speculation is just conjecture, It does make interesting coversation
