We tried this scenario and it is simply awful! First of all the Russians who go first can push Germany almost completely out of Russia altogether on the first turn! :-o Then the Japs who have a big navy are in a heap of trouble due to 3 large groups of U.S. naval vessels in the Pacific that dont really represent the actual naval strengths in early 1942. The U.S. task force in the Solomons is months ahead of schedule and a U.S. battleship in the Pearl Harbor spot in early '42? The game is totally a defensive contest for the Axis. They start out making 54 and 48 respectively and they need every bit of it to stay afloat! I dont know how much play-testing this scenario has had but this one seems to be an afterthought!
