Hi, in relatively new to Axis and Allies and I’ve recently done a game with some friends. I’m playing UK/USA/France with an Italian, Russia, and German player. The reason I’m making this post is to get some general advice and help from more experienced players. The game is set in 1940 Europe hence why I’m posting it here

To give some context it is turn 4 and Germany just invaded the USSR, the push went well and Germany has 11 tanks, 7 artillery and 11 infantry in eastern poland. He also has 2 tac bombers 1 fighter and 9 infantry in Rumania. Germany also has 2 artillery in eastern poland. For the northern front Germany has pushed to Karelia and Vyborg with 5 infantry and 2 arty in Vyborg and 2 infantry, 2 arty in Karelia. Germany also has a small fleet with a sub, destroyer, and cruiser in sea zone 115

For the western front Germany has fewer units, there are 4 infantry and 1 mechanized in normandy/bordeaux and there is 2 strat bombers and 1 fighter in France itself. 2 infantry are in Denmark, there are 2 infantry an 2 artillery and 4 tac bombers in western Germany. Germany also has a damaged carrier fleet in sea zone 91 with 2 damaged carriers, 2 fighters and 1 tac bomber on them. He has nothing in Norway, Greater Southern Germany, Hungary, Belgium/Holland, and Yugoslavia.

Russia is looking worse for wear but did do a successful push into the Baltic States and has 3 infantry and 3 artillery there. In Novograd there are 7 infantry, 4 arty, 2 fighters and 1 tac bomber. 4 infantry and 1 arty in Belarus, 4 infantry and 2 mech in western Ukraine. 1 infantry in Bessarabia, and 6 infantry, 7 artillery, 2 tanks in Ukraine itself. As for reinforcements, there is an arty and infantry in Smolensk as well as 2 infantry, an arty and a fighter in moscow. Strangely enough there are 3 infantry in Syria.

Italy has had it rough this game as i pulled off a successful Taranto raid and killed his fleets in sea zone 97 and 96. Italy has holed itself up in Egypt with 2 tanks, 3 arty, i mech and 2 infantry, Italy has also built minor industry in Egypt. There is 1 infantry in French equatorial africa. As for the mainland there is 1 fighter, 3 infantry and 2 AAA in Southern Italy, 1 tank, 1 mech, 1 infantry, 1 fighter in northern Italy. As for France Italy own southern france with garrison of 1 infantry, 1 arty, 1 tank. For the Balkans italy has 1 infantry in Greece, Bulgaria, and Albania. Italy also has 2 tanks in Rumania, and 1 arty in Morocco.

The UK has had a great game so far with the aforementioned decimation of the Italian fleet. Currently i have 4 arty, 2 infantry, 1 mech and 1 tank in Transjordan, 1 infantry 3 tanks in Sudan. There is 1 tank 2 mech in the Congo, 1 strat bomber in Kenya, 1 tac bomber, 1 infantry in Malta. I also still have control over Gibraltar.
For a home defense i have 2 infantry 1 tac bomber and 1 AAA in Scotland, I also have 4 infantry (2 french), 2 fighters, 1 mech, and 4 AAA in England. For switching my gaze eastward i have 3 tanks (and a minor industry) in Iraq ready to go into Russia to help defend. I also have 1 infantry and 1 arty in Quebec and 3 infantry in Brazil. My fleet has suffered and I only have 1 destroyer and 1 transport in sea zone 71.

America is middling, a turn ago i lost a carrier fleet (2 carriers, 2 tac bombers, 2 fighters, a destroyer, and a cruiser,) to the german carrier fleet in sea zone 91. I am rebuilding the fleet already with 2 new carriers with 1 tac bomber each as well as 2 transports and a battleship. For land forces I have 4 mech, 4 infantry, and 1 arty. and 2 AAA in the Eastern United States. There is also 1 strat bomber in England

France is almost spent with only 2 remaining infantry (1 in Transjordan, 1 in Nigeria) as well as a single destroyer left in sea zone 76.

Overall i feel the game is a toss up between the axis and the allies, I’m trying to close up Africa and rebuild the US fleet so i can attain naval superiority in the Atlantic. Once that is done i want to take the US fleet to invade Norway and build several strat bombers to start destroying german industry. I’m not too sure on German, Italian, and Russian plans but i can give them advice if you people have any.

I will also post screenshots of the game for better frame of reference.

Thank you for any advice you can give.

I did not know that damaged carriers can’t hold planes, thank you for the clarification
