If i build an IC in a captured territory, and I lose that territory, and another ally takes it over, its now their IC.
Thats not even a question, I just feel its the answer to one of the next ones to be asked.
Japan is the easiest country to hold on to and win with. She has in the pacific, two carriers and at least three planes to escort those carriers on turn 1! The only way it can lose is if German capitulates first!
you can actually manage 4 planes :)
USSR, read my name! :lol:
ussr should get more money, in reality, they massivly outproduced germany, thats how they won.
USA KICKS BUTT!!!
If you are going by historical accounts than the german infantry would attack at 3 and the it would take 3 russian infantry to get a defensive dice of 1.
It is estimated that between 10 to 15 Russians died for every German that died.
I voted for germany. The key to allied victory is through Berlin. Just like in the real war.
Japan or Russia.
Japan tends to be underestimated, and can easily expand across Europe if it’s lucky.
Russia is right in the middle of the action, and it tends to have some really big battles.

I agree, just give germany more units.
I feel russia is now a much more playabec outnry and less restricted and has much more options jsut like the axis and allies europe game anyone agree?
for sure … I would think it has a lot to do with the way eastern europe and russia is now divided … It gives a much better gameplay. On the original edition the eastern front was just a slab of land that did not make much sense.
I like Germany because of several reasons. 1) It is the underdog (unless
playing a 8 city game) 2) Having 10 tanks is great 3) I prefer a land battle.
I like the US because I like to be able to build a fleet, and an Air Force when I want, how I want. I am also a firm believer in properly supporting the USSR, and if someone else does it, it might get bungeld up!
Germany is my favorite, with Russia in a close second place
i like the us or japan. lots of naval combat
Germany
Japan
Russia
I like Germany becaue it starts with so many initial units and initiates combat all over the place.
I like Japan because I like to carve up and conquer Asia/Russia and I like to mix IC construction with trn deployments.
I like Russia because playing them well, and aggressively enough makes a big difference in the game since they’re between the two Axis powers.
UK/US I like these about the same, in the end though they normally end up doing the same types of things in the Atlantic.
I HATED the US in 2nd edition, but i find them a little more interesting in revised…just because of their increased ipc and the extra trannie…but all in all…they’re boring…
I kind of agree, Mr. G. The US is extremely dull for the first few rounds and after that they are mildly entertaining as you support Russian and British combat initiatives/defend their territories.
However, America is a vital nation to the victory of the allies.

Hi Jennifer,
I have answered you comment in the thread National advantages for A&A Europe under the forum Axis and Allies Europe! What do you think? :D
If you are going by historical accounts than the german infantry would attack at 3 and the it would take 3 russian infantry to get a defensive dice of 1.
Yes, if you had already captured all of the territories surrounding the Soviet Infantry and they were trapped in a pocket, as they were in the early days of the invasion.
UK and Japan all day!! They are both very balanced teams and have opportunities for all kinds of interesting moves. They’re way more fun than either Germany or Russia, with round after round of land combat. That can get boring pretty quick, but it’s good to start newbies off with these countries so they can learn the dynamics of land combat before they graduate to the much less forgiving realities of maritime combat. The US is fun when they finally show up and are a force to be reckoned with. Of course, it all depends on personal preference, and what type of combat you enjoy most.
Without any doubt, Germany. It’s the most challenging and most important country to play. Unless the German player is very, very good, the Allies should almost always win. You have to be good at offense and defense, and subtle maneuvering.
I think it’s easier to win with the Allies, but playing Germany is a great challenge. And like someone else said, if you win with Germany, you’re feeling pretty good.
