What power would you choose?

I prefer Japan for its graceful sweeping strokes, when executed properly they are a piece of art that causes your opponents to marvel at the rapid swing of momentum as you dismantle armed resistance in your path.

Japan is a Katana: beautiful, graceful, lethal, and powerful in skilled hands.

It is a steel paperweight in the hands of a novice.

I like Germany for the challenge, and if you do get the win then you break the historical accuracy of WWll or Japan for matter
    We pull the round flags out of a cup so everyone has a chance to learn each country on a random basis, there are people in our group who like certain countries better than others

Italy because once I’ve took Africa I can just chill out.

JamesAleman - I loved your response. I’ll respond in kind about Germany.

Germany is a Spiked Gauntlet - brutal, powerful, and frightening when smashing into your opponent’s stomach or throat… especially when that punch is thrown by a brutal, powerful, and frightening player.

I’m not saying that I’m that player… it was just fun to write.

There is a particular artistry to dismantling Russia with a steady flow of infantry and artillery, utilizing the menace of armor and mechanized infantry to force your opponent to fall back, back… while the Luftwaffe methodically grows to become both the spiked shield, and the finisher.

Japan is the one. So many options to choose from and run wild for six months. I mean three turns and then the challenge of luring the U.S. navy into a fight that they cannot win. Like the sea battles!

Wow! as of right now, Japan is beating the US. And I thought Japan was a sure loss.

People often like greater challenges in something like this. I’d expect all Axis to be placed higher than Allies. Even Italy :D

I chose the Soviet Union because I truly enjoy facing the crushing threat of Nazi Germany head on, and defeating them using inventive movements and defensive strategies.  I love the scorched earth manner of playing them.

The great thing about this game overall, is that every nation is so different to play.  Each Nation has it’s own challenges and advantages.

Although I prefer to play UK, I am always happy to take on any power for a change-up.

I like to play Russia, followed by Germany.
