Round Four: GE. builds artillery, infantry, mech. infantry, tank, fighter, &, submarine. Two DDs pass on joining It. fleet, due to Allied air power, instead they both go to Sea Zone #125. On Eastern Front with 2 troopers moved from Denmark to the undefended Baltic States(via a transport escorted by a BB). Also Uk., Western Uk., &, Eastern Poland are taken. Could the Soviets retake them, are they finally running out of combat forces? IPCs lost GE. 6, &, U.S.S.R. 20.

U.S.S.R. has inadequate units, to try to take back all the lost provinces, could this be the beginning of the end for the Soviets? Builds sub., 4 tanks, 2 troopers, mech. infantry, &, gun. Goes on a sluggish limited offensive, retakes only UK. & Eastern Poland.

At sea sub. leaves Karelia & sinks GE. DD stationed at Sea Zone #125(sub. lost also). This should get some extra IPCs for next round,
&, IPCs lost Soviets 14, and, GE. 24.

U.S.A. builds transport, DD, C, fighter, tactical bomber, tank, gun. Does not move three damaged BBs back to East Coast for repairs, they go into the Med. Sea, off Tunisia. Invasion fleet arrives off Gibraltar(Atlantic side).

Italy builds 3 troopers & a sub., takes the bait, &, remaining air force(all 3 fighters), attack three damaged U.S. BBs. Sink 2 BBs & lose whole air force. Transport reinforce with a trooper Sardinia & Sicily. Eastern Front 2 Mech. Infantry move to Hungary from N. Italy, &, forces in Poland retake E. Poland. IPCs lost Italy 37, U.S.S.R. 13, &, U.S.A. 20(again assigned only half value of a damaged capital ship).

Round Five: Germany builds A.C., 2 troopers, gun, mech. infantry, &, 2 tanks. GE. may not like it, but, to send land forces to Italy, would weaken the Eastern Front, perhaps a naval task force would help in the Med. Sea(the old one more big push, is too W.W. One-ish).

All GE. naval forces to assemble on Sea Zone #125.

On Eastern Front using defensive air power based in Denmark & Norway, for this turn(no losses due to AA fire), in taking Leningrad in Novgorod. From Rumania a tank & mech. infantry enter GE. control Bessarabia and take Ukraine with air power(a fighter & tactical bomber will be sent back to help out in Italy). IPCs losses GE. 6, &, U.S.S.R 19.

U.S.S.R. builds 3 troopers, gun, mech. infantry, tank, &, fighter. Counterattack Eastern Front in a most frugal & economical way(bang for bucks), takes back Uk., Western Uk., Baltic States, &, Novgorod. Losses are heavy, &, three front line districts are held by only lone infantry unit. IPCs lost It. 6(all Italy has left on E.F. are a fighter & 2 mech. infantry units), GE. 29, Soviets 27.

U.S.A. builds A.C., BB, DD, trooper, &, bomber. Fleet to link up with damaged BB off Tunisia, another fleet leaves East Coast for Italy, with a transport(has armor & mech. infantry). Another bomber flies back to East Coast from W. Indies.

Italy builds fighter, moves transports & sub. together. On Easter Front forces attack Baltic States, fighter lands back in Poland, while 2 mech. infantry take out defending soviet armor(unfortunately the mech. units are all destroyed). IPCs lost It. 8 & Soviets 6.

Round Six: GE. builds Minor Industrial Complex in Poland, tactical bomber, 2 tanks, trooper, gun, &, mech. infantry. Transport unescorted to undefended Vyborg drops a trooper & gun. BB & AC joins rest of fleet at Sea Zone #125, &, fighter & tactical bomber from Norway, land on AC. Two mech. infantry from Germany, go through Axis Poland, &, enter and take undefended Baltic States(if they were station in Poland instead, one mech. infantry could have taken also undefended Belarus). Eastern Poland falls with help of tactical bomber & fighter on the way to the Italian front(they land in N. Italy). Also Uk. falls & attack on Western Uk. fails.

IPCs lost GE. 17 & Soviets 15.

U.S.S.R. builds 4 troopers, sub., 2 mech. infantry, &, 2 tanks. Submarine goes to Sea Zone #125 & damages GE. BB(sub. lost). Counterattacks are needed in order to avoid Axis forces from doing a blitz next turn. Soviets do a blitz of their own, armor goes from W. Uk. to undefended Bessarabia, &, then destroys GE. armor & takes Ukraine. Also retakes Vyborg & Baltic States, IPCs lost Soviets 9 and GE. 21.

U.S.A. builds, if taken Minor Industrial Complex and Naval Base and Anti-Aircraft gun, for Tunisia, &, for East Coast 2 BBs & Mech. Infantry unit. Fleet outside entrance to Med. Sea, enters and joins damaged BB waiting for it, off Tunisia. Meanwhile the original fleet does a Operation Torch and takes Libya, landing two transports, and, for no lost taking out the It. 2 troopers. The fighters for this fleet fly out and sink both It. transports off the west coast of Italy. IPCs lost It. 20.

The temptation to take out S. Italy was strong, but, the U.S. wants to take it, and, hold it(not lose it on It. turn). Still the Med. Sea is starting to look pretty much green in color.

It. builds fighter. On Eastern Front fighter flies in & destroys armor in Baltic States, returns to Poland. Also lone trooper arrives in Poland. Tobruk garrison attacks U.S. forces in Libya, destroying a trooper(garrison is also wiped out). IPCs lost Italy 7 & U.S. 3. & GE. 6.

Round Seven: GE. builds sub., fighter, 3 troopers, 2 mech. infantry, &, tank. Moves fleet to off Iceland, transport returns to GE., &, attacks continue on Eastern Front. Due to Blitzing armor takes Bessarabia & Uk., also W. Uk., Baltic States, Belarus, &, Eastern Poland falls. Largest Axis expansion in the game, the road to three major soviets cities, has been opened up.

Meanwhile fighter stays in N. Italy, &, tactical bomber moves to S. Italy. IPCs lost 3 & Soviets 23.

U.S.S.R. builds 2 troopers, 2 guns, 2 mech. infantry, &, 2 tanks. Counterattacks along whole Eastern Front takes back Uk.(blocking path to Stalingrad), W. Uk.(ditto for Moscow), Belarus(ditto for Leningrad), &, Baltic States. Sub. leaves Home Waters to go to space Sea Zone #125, &, maybe chase GE. fleet. IPCs lost Soviets 3 & GE. 22.

U.S.A. builds in East Coast transport, tank, tactical and strategic bombers, &, in Libya 2 tanks, &, fighter. Moves from East Coast to off Iceland, air fleet of 2 bombers, &, regular fleet of 2 BBs, A.C. with fighter & tactical bomber, &, DD. There they meet & battle GE. fleet of damaged & undamaged BBs, sub., C, 3 DDs, A.C. with fighter and tactical bomber. Losses only 2 damaged U.S. battleships
are left.

On west side of S. Italy, DD & sub. versus It. sub.(both subs. lost). Landing on east side of S. Italy, BB & defending gun score a hit, defending forces eliminated. U.S. takes 10 IPC from the Italy, Rome is taken! IPCs losses U.S. 133, GE. 120, &, It. 35.

It. builds nothing, U.S. took Rome & its IPCs(U.S. IPCs count has gone up to 69). From N. Italy a trooper moves alone to S. Italy, no conflict, Peace has broken out. Italy has enough land forces to maybe take back S. Italy, but, knows it cannot hold it before the U.S. probably retakes it next turn(does not want to turn S. Italy into the new frontline). The GE. fighter in N. Italy is not much help, the GE. rescue fleet was destroyed, &, their is no more land forces in the pipeline.

Gives up Ethiopia and Libya(US help turn the latter one into a nation), can keep Tobruk & Somaliland, with no military forces in them. Forces on Eastern Front can defend, but, are to return home, also US will keep air, sea, &, land forces in S. Italy. Along with any It. sea & air & land forces are for defense only, GE. cannot complain(forces in N. Italy can easily overrun Germany).

GE. is doing a constant flip flop on the Eastern Front, moves ahead and gets pushed back, to where they started. They cannot deal with a Southern or Western Front(there is more troopers on seacoast defense, than on the whole Eastern Front!). GE. agrees to pull out of U.S.S.R., and, Norway(U.S. forces station there to keep the Danish Straits opened). Also keep its navy in the North Sea, and, with the Soviets, pull out of Poland(keep that as a buffer state).

Again Soviets cannot complain, it is a long way to Berlin, and, they will get Marshall Plan Aid, with some for S. Italy(the Axis can help each other).

@Beverbuild

Some suggestions and principles to go with them so you can apply in later turns.

Consolidate your focus - while it is emotionally fun to send out multiple task forces in various directions on daring raids to disrupt the enemy, your ability to sustain an assualt and overcome the enemy over many turns is limited. It apears you have 6 to 7 areas of focus (invading Russia, invading Austrailia, invading/defending southeast Asia, defending Japan seazone, etc.) It’s best to pick a critcial few objectives, and organize your deployment of forces (navy/air, logistics/transports, unit purchases, and combat) to achieve these objectives. This is what will lead you to purchase based on what you want to do 3 or 4 turns in advance.

Consolidate your fleet - this will enable you to strike back at US naval presence, inflicting maximum damage while minimizing losses (as you will use less rounds of combat to resolve, and less over hits from enemy.) Right now all of your ships are so spread out they cannot support one another in an attack. While the US is also spread out, they are somewhat better positioned to mutually support an attack within one space from any group of ships.

Infantry, infantry, infantry. You have almost no infantry on the mainland. It will be impossible to take and hold objectives with out a steady flow of infantry.

Hope this helps. To be honest, it will take a solid 1-2 turns to get some of these suggestions implemented, and don’t be surpirsed if you have to relinquish some territory to regroup and refocus.
