I usually wipe out british sea assets, in particular the sub in the med + battleship and the us trannie. Next send 2 guys to Africa. Wipe out Pearl Harbor and hit Australia first turn with Japan. This should get you till turn 3/4 where Germany is safe from US pressure. It helps to have good luck with the dice or the Axis are doomed.
"I downloaded A&A Iron Blitz from The underdogs.org and I think its an awesome game. "
I find a major contradiction here. The package is put together soo poorly that it is not even played on the zone, or ever was (cept for the first 2 weeks it ever was spammed).
If you are serious about wanting to play on the zone, you are in for a very big surprise. The bugs that show up in online play in every phase dwarf anything you’ve seen while playing the AI offline. And this is an understatement!
After playing both versions, by far the Iron Blitz version is much much better, if not for the simple fact you can basically setup the game in any manner you wish. Just having the marines changes the way you do things in the game, the way you think thing through and whatnot. Plus as a bonus the AI isn’t completely horrid, it still is dumb and can be destroyed rather quickly but isn’t as bad as in just plain A&A.
