I don’t see how the Allies can liberate DC because as I said, if Germany does it, that means it has to destroy Home Fleet to get to DC which means that without US having income, Canada cannot produce enough to counter a full invasion on DC and Germany at this point will have more income than UK with a navy and army to counter.
Well now I see your point if Germany reaches Washington I think the allies should just surrender at that point cause if they keep going the axis will have extra money to get the economy token if playing with grasshoppers tokens.Or with stock rules the axis control Berlin Rome Warsaw Paris Tokyo Shanghai Manila Hong Kong possibilitie London Cairo and Washington and maybe Ottawa
Japan more valuable to the Axis powers than the USSR is to the Allies

After many games of the Global 1940……OOB all the way up to A+3 2ND EDITION…it seems that in the games we play Japan is very brittle. Depending on how Europe is going the USA may be going all in the Pacific. This makes it very difficult for the Japanese considering it turns into a 4 against 1 war in that theater. We played a game where i took Moscow but the US just crushed the Japs. It was clear that after Tokyo fell the war was lost. Any thoughts to my theory?

That’s pretty much it. As the Axis you can’t just plan on Moscow, you have to plan on what happens after that. This means you have to be able to get either London or Cairo. Cairo can be a lot easier to get late-game, but only if you helped keep Italy alive. If you let Italy get crushed, then taking Moscow doesn’t matter as you won’t win (if Japan also went down as you say).

You can push for Egypt after taking Russia. It can be difficult.
