Here would be another interesting “Cold War” scenario. Say Germany got strong and defeated the Russians while Italy beat the Brits and took Cairo, resulting in an Axis win on the Europe side.
Meanwhile, the US went KJF and Japan got totally pasted on the Pacific side.
So, the US is really strong in the Pacific but has little presence in the Atlantic.
Japan and Russia are extinct.
Germany and Italy are very wealthy and powerful, with Germany controlling most of western Russia, Italy advancing into Africa and the two perhaps sharing the Middle East.
The UK in Europe is fairly weak and demoralized after losing to the Italians in the Med, but strongly defending Britain itself and possibly capable of building a strong RAF. Plus a good staging ground for the US Air Force.
UK/India is pretty strong but about to face a Euro Axis assault from the west.
ANZAC is in really good shape, but still small and a long way from Europe. Not sure how much help they will be. I suppose they could be good at beefing up India’s defenses.
China will have a lot of men and all their territories, but due to their limited range of operation won’t be much help to the Allies unless Germany or Italy ventures into China.
Perhaps it would be a race to see if the US could transfer the bulk of it’s forces from Japan to Europe before Germany captures London and/or Calcutta. Or if the Allies could liberate Moscow.
One time we played a game of Revised where Germany ended up controlling all of Europe, Asia and Africa. However, the US had such a powerful navy and air force that Germany could not put any boats in the water. It was kind of weird.
