2 things buy 1 battle ship turn 1 as America and leave NO men on Russian board territories.
My 2 cents
PS ask me and I while give a more in depth strategy for the allies, out of 15 games of alpha +2 against my dad I have had 12 wins and 3 losses.
It’s often a good idea to leave a blocker (generally 1 infantry) in the Russia border territories, because then Germany can’t blitz through. Italy might attack “can-opener style”, but it can still be helpful.
That’s the point in my strategy if Germany wants to they can blitz the frontier teritories, because I’ll blitz them back, but if they blitz through even better then they got no more cannon fodder and there doomed.
So US is down for 4 rounds. afterwards, what territory should be their main goal? i used to assault normandy or south-france, because of the IC’s. Also thought of aiming at italians, who can break through egypt now. But then russians are hard pressed.
perhaps they should land together with british in norway?

the turn sequence of Alpha 3 is ideal for attacking with USA and reinforcing with UK INFs and FIGs
edit: for me Africa is first priority (UK IPC’s + securing a front and Egypt, a VC), when that is settled i prefer to aim at Norway (NO bonus for Germany and a relatively safe spot to land, AND of course a place where USA can build an IC)

by the time africa is decently secured, russia has fallen…
(atleast alpha 2)

That can happen, but even so, as long as Axis don’t capture either Cairo or London they haven’t won.
Also i said first priority, not only priority ;)
Of course Allies need to be turning the tide by now on the other side of the map.
