@pacifiersboard They used both DC-3s (aka C-47s) and gliders for heavier units.

Another purchasing strategy you may consider is 1 fighter and the rest inf. First couple of turns you should be able to do 9 inf and a fighter. Helps with bombing raids on Moscow and those 4’s can really come in handy in big battles.

@daefish:

Okay so if I land US trooper on a land zone that has Italian troops on it and one german soldier but I’m not at war with Germany, this is not a valid combat move until I’m at war with Germany.

If US troops attacked an Italian territory that also has German units in it, you would basically be declaring war on Germany at that point. In land battles, all Allied units defend together so there is no way not to have war between US and Germany.
I think that going strictly by the rules you are supposed to declare war on a nation before making your combat move, but I think most players simply take the combat move as the DOW without making a formal declaration.
You have an interesting situation there with the US being at war with Japan and Italy but not Germany. I can’t help but wonder how well that would work if you kept it up, but I don’t think it would work out. Germany would simply put an extra infantry in each Italian territory and you would never be able to fight the Italians without attacking Germany as well. Then again, in most of our games, Germany and Italy are pretty separated. Italy usually goes up against the Brits in the Med and Africa while Germany dives into Russia.

How do i look at other players games?

Make it a little easier for them by moving the purchase new units phase to right after noncombat. Keep repair at the top of the round though.

The group I play with is very casual, a lot of drinking and joking around. We don’t have a set time for turns, but you can be assured that the longer you take, the more razzing you’re gonna get for taking a long time. So either your quick and decisive or you will be ridiculed to the point of not being able to concentrate.

Good idea, Allweneed. And good point. So far, zero people have answered the poll question saying they would play as a beancounter.

Russia, man. Since I started playing Classic, Russia goes to the newb. Center of the action, forgiving because it’s huge, easy purchases, don’t have to learn naval units yet, straightforward strategy, roll fistfuls of dice.

“Look, here, buy as many infantry as you can afford. Hold off the Germans. Keep your planes alive. Stall the japs in Siberia.”

Axis? No way.
