• This is a spot you can post your strategies for Axis ans Allies Pacific 1940.
    With Japan, a good idea is to try to trick one of the allies (UK or ANZAC) into attacking you first. Then on J2, attack the US and try to have your fleet in such a position so you can destroy the US fleet in one turn. Dont worry about china too much, they cant do much anyway. Throw most of your ground forces against UK (India) and your navy against US and ANZAC.
    With the US, build up a navy with 2-4 transports and head straight for Tokyo.
    With UK, build infantry and artillery, and maybe a few ships to keep Japan distracted.
    Finally, with ANZAC, try to build up defenses of Australia, you dont really have enough of an army to attack Japan with so try to keep yourself alive as long as possible. If anyone has anything to add or suggest I would appreciate it. I am only 15 and realize every strategy has its faults, but this strategy, if played right does work.


  • Noone is going to attack Japan on UK1 - They can get their ships to safty and do a nice build-up in Malay instead and together with ANZAC, they can occupy at least 2 DEI tt’s, which will force you to devote troops there if you want to milk the cow. But let’s assume that you managed to get UK to strike first, then why in the world would you attack US on J2, when you have 2 more rounds before they can do anything?

    You got to keep china down, or you will never be able to keep the 2 mainland VC that you need. Having a stack of 10 inf is a pita, when your forces start to dwindle away.


  • @Mellemhund:

    Noone is going to attack Japan on UK1

    Indeed, and in round 2 it will still be unlikely unless the bait is huge.

    Anzac’s role is to be the USA sidekick, clearing blockers and such. (but initially it is good to build up some defence power)

    The biggest weapon for the Allies is cooperation (and a huge American paycheck ;) )
