If your playing a smart player, who does not “Pearl Harbor” with Japan and uses the Navy to take India which is basically Impossible to stop. Do not buy Industrial complex turn 1. Wait and see if the Japan player does “Pearl Harbor” or not if he does then you should be safe but i would wait until turn 2 or 3. Don’t forget about the 2 infantry and transport in Australia they help defend India very well, Also the transport can move Infantry from Africa to India (after Germany has been removed from Africa). My favorite UK strategy is to fly fighters from India to Russia “Moscow”. Creates a brick wall of infantry and fighters to setup a long game to use the Allied 3 turn advantage to win. Its hilarious to watch Germany throw tanks and infantry trying to wear down Russia and the 10+ UK fighters and Russian Infantry just obliterate them.
My G1 move mistakes

I tried to follow a strat that someone posted (sorry I can’t remember their name but they made page on strategy basics somewhere on the mainsite) and failed. What happens is I lose West Russia but the strategy says not to take it on G1. So what usually happens is a gridlock in the East and I have to wait for Japan to make a push (which I will post a seperate thread later on advice for Japan).
Anyway there is a gridlock with Russia, I get kicked out of Africa and US/UK usually takes Norway or West Europe. Thoughts or advice?

Varn, you’re turning into a guru/master. I’ve followed your games with Flip, you remind me of the borg with your ability to adapt, well done. Hopefully once the drywall dust and paint settles from the home renovation and the insurance company has their fill with sending me to be poked and prodded by doctors I will get on tripleA and face your wrath! Merry Christmas!
