March 19, 2008 - 00:11 US Basics

Submitted by DarthMaximus
Strategy

For the early US turns a lot is going to depend on your overall Allied strategy and what the UK is doing. To start the game the US doesn't have much to do in terms of combat but you want to make sure you buy the right units and start to move your forces into a more useful position.

Since there probably won't be much to do in combat and you will spend most of your turn backing up the other Allies, I'll go into a little more detail about some possible purchases.

Submitted by DarthMaximus
Strategy

In order to go through some of Japan's basic moves I'm going to have to make some assumptions since there are quite a lot of variations they can see due to the play out of R1 thru UK 1. So I'll assume any bid went to Germany, Russia attacked some combination of Wrus, Belo or Ukr, Germany took Egy, cleared out the Med of all Allied ships, and countered what it could in Europe, while the UK landed in Alg, countered Egy (or setup up an Afr counter in Rd 2).
