Strategy for Japan

Veqryn after you have read the essays Frimmel linked to (so of the finest strategy essays on the site in my opinion) check out my thread Australian Push. Kreig says he has never seen it before and I have never lost a game with it.

AAP is not balanced all that well, in that Japan wins most of the games by a wide margin, but it is very fun to play. If nothing else for the challenge of seeing if you can eek one out for the Allies.

These strategies are very helpful, but still China is such a annoying thorn to the Japanese player.

Never easy is it?

I still come around once in a while.  I claim some expertise for AAPacific but none at all for the other A&A games.  I have played most of them, but there are many players more able than me who you should look to for strategy tips on AAR, 2nd Edition or the other versions of the game.

Nope! Yesterday I decided to give it a shot in the AAP game I was playing while I was Japan. It worked nice. The british were to worried about defending India to attack me at Yunnan and the forces at szchewan were easily defeated. From my first turn and for a long time I had forty IPC’s and put a bomber on Szcehwan every turn pounding the Indians, I even used one for a SBRaid to take away the sorry 8 dollars India had. I won by taking India!

I like submarines… :)

No. China is played like a completly different nation with the same turn as the US. Since the Chinese have no income there is nothing to take away.
