How does AA 42 change Allies/Axis strategy?

I wanted to throw this out.

The map isn’t being changed (other than cosmetic and US).

Defenseless trns would make it easier for Germany to attempt to wipeout the Allies fleet along with the change in sub rules.

But what else?

Also would anyone have access to the new rulebooks?

With Germany, I will be attacking the USA atl fleet first turn with a submarine.  I will be positioning my air force to ensure that the allies can not land in Europe or Africa the first turn (easy to do this time, since i will only need 1bomber and 3fighters in range to wipe out any first turn joint allied fleet that decides to move to africa).
With USA and UK, I will be buying shit tons of Fleet Defense, which will delay my landings by 1 full turn.  Russia is going to be in a tight squeeze because of this.

Russia and Japan will be played pretty much the same, except that russia can count on any support through africa being 1 turn late.
