After playing Alpha 3.9 numerous times on the forum and off against many players, I draw the conclusion that Alpha 3.9 favors the Axis decisively for one reasons:
The Allies cannot effectively stop a USSR crush.
The USSR is too under powered to stop it, and the other allies cannot get in there fast enough to stop it without losing to Japan. The allies either have to KJF and hope they can rerout once that’s done to hold on to Cairo or to just hope Japan stumbles, giving them enough time to counter Germany. Either way is a crap shoot and futile if Germany and Japan really hammer the USSR.
Ummm… No if you play youre cards right allies have the advantage.
