I just checked my game and I actually won it.

I went with a KGF strategy bought 1 ftr first round. My opponent probably thinking it was a bad move decided to build an AC in the baltic for Germany. That's probably why I bought a second one. I already had played a game against him as the Allied and knew he was playing a game of exchanging Inf.

Russia 4 my opponent surrendered.

I don't think Germany should buy an AC for the baltic but that's an entire different story.

[Mr. G]

I personally never buy one unless I'm playing a newbie, because I think the armor is a better all around purchase

-OK...so you agree. Good...

Ok so hold everything, when German has Karelia/Belorussia/Ukraine - and if yer playing Russia you just let them have that extra 7ipcs ? Maybe your right, that is the way to go, i dunno, i play my way and it works pretty good.

Ive got the tripleA game of revised, wanna have a game by email ? The worst that can happen is I lose, but learn a lot - Im up for that >;}

My favorite first round buy for Russia is 2 Inf. 2 Arty. 2 Armor. this packs a powerful punch, and a good defense. theres also enough to keep russia alive from the swarms of Germans.

I think artillery buys with Russia are a waste of money....Russia needs tanks more than anything....Russia has to have a flexible front(one which could shift at any moment) with tanks(which move 2 spaces) Russia can shift it's attack quickly, with artillery your attack power doesn't threaten as many spaces...but tanks stacked in WRus are in very good position to counter attack(against Japan or Germany)

-I never let the Germans hold Ukr...Karelia must be given up...it is almost impossible to retake if the Germans aren't foolish enough to build navy...I let the Germans keep Belorussia..that country isn't in really good position for either side....

I dont know who vote for the 8 inf buy, but I think it is not good at all to only buy that. You get no conter-offensive power with those infantry.

I prefer buying one figher in the first round, and 2 inf and 2 art.

I usually send one of my fighter to the East, to help defend india in the first round(s) and to give an offensive power to the grunts i've moved to the japanese front. Sooner of later, after the us and Uk are strong enough against Japan, my fighter come back against germany. Having 3 figthers give you the opportunity to trade country with germany without letting him the chance of destroying to much troops.

You can stack a better army behing your line.
