Move: 6 inf, 2 plans from United States of America to Canada

What do you think?

A

what do you do with America?  I know in my game when I was the allies I would buy transports and build planes every turn and ship them over too the uk.  By the end of it any airforce Germany could build I would send in my American planes to wipe them out….or at least weaken it then have france or uk finish them off.  In the game it is a huge advantage having that air superiority and the artillery rolling stacks at 4.  This is were I found it hard with Germany I could never get air superiority and get those artilleries to 4

In round 5 America can land 5 inf and 1 art(British on the British R5) and 6 inf, 2 art and 2 plans in
A: Northern France
B: Italy(Piemonte)

A or B depends on the situation. B is nice since you can invade Smyrna or Trans-Jordan R6. A is nice since its easier to set up a route b

Romania accually needs to be taken r1 as AH, so overkill is good. The overall strat for the axis is to maximize number of territories they can take from russia before revolution and if possible take Sevastopol as it is the best link between east and south where you need to send remaining eastern troops to prolong the ottoman collaps.

I might as well continue with round 2-5 that concerns the eastern front.

AH2:
Buy: Only units for the Italien front
Attack: Sevastopol with Romania with 13 inf, 4 art plus plane (bought r1) from Vienna (lets say you lost 3 inf taking Romania r1), Assume you lose 2 inf taking Sevastopol
Attack: Ukraine with 1 Inf (Do not comit everything from Galica since it will be counter-attacked from Polen and Moscow if you do)
Move: 4 inf and 2 art from Vienna to Galicia (the units you bought r1)

R2(25 IPC+1):
Buy: 8 inf, save 2 IPC
Move: 15 inf and 6 art from Polen to Belarus
Move: 1 inf from Tatarstan to Moscow
Move: 1 inf from Karelia to Moscow
(Total in Moscow: 34 inf and 5 art)

G2:
Buy: Inf and art, everything towards the western front,
Move: 31 inf,d 9 art,1 plane from Silicia and Prussia into Polen

AH3:
Attack: 1 inf from Ukraine to Tatarstan
Move: 9 inf and 4 art from Sevastopol to Ukraine (Leave 2 inf in defence from Britain so they cant just take it with 1 unti)
Move: 18 inf and 6 art from Galicia to Ukraine (28 inf and 10 art + 1 plane total in Ukraine)

R3(15+2 IPC):
Buy: 5 inf
Attack: Ukraine with 15 inf and 6 art from Belarus and 34 inf and 5 art from Moscow; Kills appr. 24 units and loss: 18 units. AH: 4 inf, 10 art and 1 plane left, Russia: 31 inf and 11 art left
Total in Moscow: 5 inf

G3:
Attack: Livonia with 2 inf from Polen
Attack: Belarus with 29 inf, 9 art and 1 plane from Polen

AH4:
Nothing on the eastern front

R4(11 IPC):
Buy: 3 inf
Move: 30 inf and 11 art from Ukraine to Moscow (leave 1 unit in Ukraine so AH cant reinforce Moscow)
Total in Moscow: 38 inf and 11 art

G4:
Attack: Moscow with 31 inf, 9 art and 1 plane (You will lose appr. 25 units and kill 18), Germany: 7 inf, 9 art and 1 plane left, Russia: 20 inf and 11 art left

AH5:
Attack: Ukraine from Ukraine

R5:
Counterattack Moscow: Kill appr.: 14 units (Axis total: 17 Units), not enough to clear. Russian Revolution!

This is very tight though, and with some luck RR wont happen!
Britain would liberate atleast Sevastopol R3/R4, which means the way south will be goon for the Axis.

No you cant strafe in A&A1914.

Nope, not as far as I understand the rules

Can you please be specific in what you do, how many units from where to what. Your analysis is very hard to follow. For instance attack Polen r1, means 6 inf and 2 art from Galicia against 6 inf and 2 art in Polen (very much not in your favor).

So please descibe in detail your round1 with AH, then I can go with Russia =)

I dont play with any restrictions, just according to the rulebook. But I cant comment anymore without specifics or arguments about my specifics. I kinda showed that its not so simple as to “send everthing east, dont worry”, clever counterattacks from Russia can more or less end it.

I wonder how is it even possible to kill Russia R5 or 6 ? Even if i send everything east as Germany except Munich, Alsace, Ruhr and Kiel and all my builds from turn 1-3 i get not even close to the russian monsterstack sitting in moscow. I would really appreciate a more detailed explanation here. (Russia always plays carefully and retreats everything to moscow in the long run.)

Buy a large stack of artillery and a couple of planes and move them into Belarus with all the inf you can get there. Not so easy for the Germans to break through.

I don´t need a strategyguide for the Allies ,because they win all the times.

What I really need is some input for playing the Central Powers especially Austria and the Ottomans.
