You’re very calculated which I enjoy - it would also be fun to see you play some advanced higher risk maneuvers to see what your opponent does. Like where you could have take out that one Japanese troop with the USA fighters to have Britain blitz and take the industrial complex. But just you pointing it out allows me to make those risk without looking bad on a KZitem vid. Lol. Thanks again for your explanations.

A good Japan player can build the factory in East Indies and take India on Turn 3, every time. The strategy has Japan's fleet consolidated. So if USA chases and goes for the Factory they are always outnumbered and lose. If they go for Tokyo then Japan builds infantry and Fighters there to counter the 1 transport USA brings. And after Japan takes India on turn 3 they take their fleet and swing back to Tokyo or wherever the smaller USA fleet is, while building ships as needed to maintain the naval advantage with the ground forces in Asia pushing towards Russia.

Like everything, it comes down to "it depends". In one example, if Germany is buying a Bomber, Fighter, and 2 Tanks, I consider that an easy Allies victory. And if you use the (IMHO a crappy variant) Larry Harris Gencon 3.0 variant, then that's just more fuel to the fire. I mean the game is really geared towards for the Allies to win, so whether it's KJF or KGF, doesn't really matter as you can go 3v1 or 2.5(ish)v1 in any scenario. Axis has to play well, get some good rolls, and hope the Allies make a mistake or two. The Allies can pretty much play average and win.

(1) Why was the US fleet stack up in the Solomons? Shouldn't it be at Wake? You can still threaten or take the Philippines from Wake, plus you'll threaten Japan. All through round 5 he had jack shit on Japan. Simply forcing land or naval units there really screws with his game. What's the point of factories in the south if you cannot afford to build the units from them to throw against India??? -- (2) Also, I usually want to see UK with 7 fighters in India with 7 infantry rather than a bunch of land units and fighters doing jack squat in the Britain. 7 fighters allow you to trade Burma efficiently; the only thing Japan is ever going to trade for is cheap infantry. 7 fighters can be immediately flown to Moscow, West Russia, Caucasus or wherever Russia needs them. Once India seems a lost cause, the entire India Stack will move to Caucasus in 2 turns. 7 fighters also mean the Japan generally cannot afford the split his fleet or UK can sink poorly escorted transports even while US Navy units pile on the pressure. He'll have ZERO choice but to turtle up in Japan and use whatever is already on the mainland towards Russia in a long 3 turn march, while those southern factories become useless and exposed and India is permanently UK territory. -- (3) Another thing is that with 7 fighters in India and the US pushing naval units into the Pacific every turn, is that it completely neutralizes Japan's ability to shuffle land units from Japan or anywhere. because those transports will need to hunker up with a consolidated fleet or make one shuffle and die. That takes 14 to 28 IPCs worth of transports out of the game even if you do not immediately kill them. If there is a factory in Manchuria capturing that and neutralizing the Japanese fleet is basically game over. -- The only play really against the above is to see what's happening early -- like round 2 early -- abandon India and marching on Russia with everything Japan has and can shuffle before the pacific is lost around turn 5 and Japan becomes purely an infantry stack on Japan itself. If Japan is smart he will build planes more than naval units such that when can no longer delay the US domination of the Pacific, those 9 to 10 planes will be available for the Japanese attack on Russia itself with Germany.

Agreed. Though if you don't use the junky Gencon 3.0 variant, it does balance it out a little for Japan. Japan has go aggressive and fast and there's no two ways about it. The game is setup for the Allies to win. I'm still grasping why anyone would allow the allies to get "bid dollars" to play the allies.. The axis is behind the 8-ball with a 3 vs 1 scenario (or at least 2 and a token help from Russia on the Japan side) already. The more I play the 42 version, the more I like it less than the original game, and that's saying something.

@DennisCoffman-dd8ok The original game has its issues... Karelia is next to Moscow and there is the Kamikaze play off Germany building tanks exclusively from round one and Japan building ALL FIGHTERS. After the German attack on Russia, Japan lands a stack of fighters and its game over. Yes, it's a crap shoot strategy with no way back if dice socks. But it is also dead simple and there was NO COUNTER other than dice!

@@dwightlooi Karelia is one territory away from Moscow, so Russia can put up blockers. If Germany only buys tanks on round 1, it should be pretty easy to mop up Germany if the allies decide to just throw their own planes into the mix. Considering round 2 Germany can only build two tanks in Karelia and more than likely Caucus/Ukraine is just a slog fest, then Russia should be able to counter punch the German onslaught. The axis (especially in the 3.0 Gencon variant) is badly outgunned and will have to rely on a little bit of luck and the allied player(s) playing horribly bad. It's one of the things that I don't get is where people are not only playing the variant, but they are bidding for the allies to get more IPCs... Like two extra infantry in India and an extra destroyer (and one less sub) isn't already bad for the axis, they have to throw more to the allies? And I get it, I mean the game should be geared for the allies to win. But they don't need extra help to do it.

If this is about just taking on the AI, this vid is nearly a waste of time but for complete noobs or currently bad players. PC AI is awful, and even when it makes the best choices out of the gate, I have defeated the AI AXIS playing against either AI player first (and with multiple strats against each) while in control of USA only, limiting myself to, literally and precisely, only 1/3 of the available pieces to make it harder. That being, Aircraft Careers, Transports, Infantry and Fighters (Planes). It is a good fight sometimes, but disappointing that it's nearly impossible for me to lose. EDIT: In my last game, I virtually ignored Japan, killing occasional pesky threats, and just sent help to Russia over the top, just to do it.

You shouldn't lose as the allies even if you play against real humans.. The advantage is geared for the allies to win. Axis, you have to play lights out and get some favorable rolls to win. I mean look at the Gencon championship where Germany was on a roll, but the axis still lost. I mean they completely took out Russia and lost. Granted, tournament rules are different, but the fact is the allies can afford to be patient and have a lot more IPCs to win in a tournament as well.

@@CW11721 no clue, but if the allies are giving me an extra infantry and everything else with the gencon 3.0 rules (i.e. extra infrantry to India), then I'm taking it. There really isn't any reason (other than really bad dice rolls) that the allies shouldn't win. I guess maybe by shortening the time so much that the allies can't counterpunch is the piece I'm missing, but even then, the allies should win. India should never fall. Russia should be able to hold off Germany long enough for the allies to provide a 2nd front. I guess if the axis players drag their feet, delay their turns, then sure, they'll win on time. Crappy way to win.
