It's technically possible conquer USA round 1 if Germans deploys tra, art to Morocco and its sz with starting 12 'free' IPCs. Not easy task, but it's possible. Of course, USA will see it and will deploy a dd to prevent the attack or a fig to improve land defenses

Brave canadian tank can retake USA with the aid of UK bomber anyway

Can't naval bases in AAE only be used in noncombat?

Edit: I was accidentally looking at the Historical edition of Europe, not the original one. My mistake

I almost took USA. I could have easily if I had waited 1 more turn but to not be cruel to the allies player I just took UK and ended it.

I actually prefer the allies because they go after the Germans do. I feel it is actually easier because of this. But I also like the Germans because they have such a material advantage to start the game. But with the proper purchases the allies can really put a kink in the "patented" German tank push to Moscow. To stop this I usually buy lots of planes with the UK and send them to Leningrad to be converted into soviet planes, and there you have it, a nice compliment to the stacks of infantry that Germany has to mow down.

For Europe I prefer the axis.  I have lost twice in this theatre but have won countless times, against different people.  I don't play online.  Anyways the axis have the advantage over the allies.  My personal starting buys are with the 12 ipcs a transport then save the 4.  Then during the purchase phase 7 tanks and a sub or just 8 tanks.  The axis just need to hit Russia fast and hard before the Western allies can do D-day and gain naval supremacy from the numerous subs on the board which sank most of the navy's.   

IMHO I feel that unless Russia knows how to properly counter attack, even when they are turtling they will fail Turn 4-5 possibly even 3.
