What most people call strafing, I often refer to as hit-and-fade tactics. Like laststrike I usually do this just to kill off some enemy infantry so that a) he won’t attack, or b) if he does attack he’ll make less of an impact. I find it really effective if you have a lot of infantry and a few supporting units (tanks, fighters, ect.) and the enemy is a little weaker than you. In a situation like that, you wouldn’t want to take the territory you’re attacking (the enemy counter attack would probably wipe you out) so by doing a hit-and-fade attack you can prevent him from attacking you on subsequent turns.

There is a chat feature, asnd the turns are made instantly, games take anywhere from 30 min. to 3 Hours.

You can get up to five players in a game.

It has been awhile since I was on the Zone, but there were always between 30 and 100 people there when I looked. Games were fairly easy to get. The best way to insure you get games is to join an online club like Spring1942.

Russia’s role is containing the Japanese on the ground… and if the Japanese player knows what it’s doing, E. Russia should be encircled by now. I say let the Americans handle the sea.
