nice, lol

@SuperbattleshipYamato,
I believe that after defeating the British, the Germans should increase their assault on the Soviet Union dramatically, and dive straight through turkey to take out India, and help Italy with Egypt. That’s a lot of IPCs we are talking about. The U.S. won’t have much time to liberate the U.K. without the Soviet Union falling first!! Once that happens, axis victory will be assured, I TELL YOU!

@SuperbattleshipYamato
That is impossible. I agree. What you decided to do in your own games, however, is beyond my control, so I don’t care. You may alter the scenario that resulted if you wish to gain the desired outcome.

Hello. I drifted away and lost interest in the forum. I decided to come back and kick things off again. I find that skill in this game may be important for unknown reasons. Your advice is very helpful. Thank you. I have one thing to point out to you: it appears that Honolulu does not appear in the rulebook as a victory city that is able to be captured. Unusually, it appears on the board. Is this historical significance, or is it merely a mistake or simply decoration or literally a victory city? The rulebook says nothing. I also figured out I mixed the 1940 Europe first edition old with 1940 Pacific second edition brand new and a 1942 game I guess. In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with buying new games since mine are in rough shape now. lol. It seems the discussion in the forums has died down quite a bit, no?

I think it would be helpful for everyone to know these first before considering asking a question. Some of these ideas that we can come up with could be beneficial to stopping people from asking questions. I don’t know any game plan strategies for both sides. That is why I am asking. In fact, I’ve only played Japan because I like playing as the Axis Powers. It’s actually kind of boring since you have to wait for the Allied players to make four turns, which is what makes the Global edition so exciting. I can introduce a strategy I know of for Japan that I’ve been employing lately but continuously seems to fail each time I’m trying because in total, the allies have enough money to completely overwhelm Japan. Here is my typical strategy for Japan as the allied side is usually played by my brother.

Turn 1: buy four transports
- Attack Chinese Territories, but replace the armies that were there with new infantry and artillery shipments from the transports that I bought on turn one on turn two.
- Plan to move the Warships towards the money islands and hope ANZAC doesn’t try to capture them.
- Capture Hong Kong (Turn one or Two) and place a MIC (Later) on either Kwangtung or Hong Kong (Hong Kong is favorable because it has a NB on it).
Turn 2: Buy Lots of Infantry and artillery on three to one ratio
- Transport remaining Units on Japan to China.
- Send all air units to China.
- Totally rampage China while keeping all captured territories defended (assess Manchuria if playing global).
- Send spare transports down to capture Phillipines and Guam
- Strategy bombers to Hainan or Palau Island.
Turn 3a: Buy Major Industrial complex on Kwantung.
- Fight US? Or Capture Money Islands.
- Capture Malaya.
- Invade China unless destroyed turn attention to Shan State and stuff down there
- Use Aircraft against China.
- On turn four use turn 3b
Turn 3b: Buy Lots of Infantry and artillery
- Use Everything to capture Money Islands and Malaya
- Rampage China with remaining Units
- Taunt The US with your air units
- On Turn four use turn 3a.

Is this possible or reasonble? Thoughts or your ideas for Allies and Japan? I don’t really know any strategy so I figure I can use your help on one thread.

Particularly wanting Pacific rules for China and The Kamikaze rules, but if there are differences in Pacific 1940 2nd and Pacific 1940 1st rules, Please let me know! I haven’t got much money, but I’m happy anyway. Also, Brand new here, so tell me how to respond!!!
