As a veteran Axis and Allies player for many years among multiple editions, even dogs of war on the pc back in the day.

Well I don't know if this ever happens with any of you, but in my experience, when the UK builds up in India to strike in Japan (primarily fleet), it never ends too well for Britain and Japan seems to be slowed down very minimally if at all. Most of my Allied won games came from Britain building up their fleet in the European conflict and the allies focusing in on Germany first.

Germany has there game set out for them kill USSR, one big mistake I made when I was playing axis was not bringing one of my German bombers to help take back east Germany. make sure you don't leave those bombers in central Germany they make the chances of winning from about a 67 % chance to a 96 % chance.

It has been a while since a played, but I remember one key on the European Eastern Front is make heavy use of "strafing" attacks (attacking with enough firepower to whittle down the defense force by getting hits on the first round or two, but then retreating and not take the territory and there by exposing your expensive tanks & artillery to counter attack). Or arranging to take a territory with only a few infantry to occupy it (if you know you will face a blistering counter attack next turn). This helps create "dead zones," where territories constantly change hands, but not in decisive way.

Without going into a full strategy, these are some of the things I prioritize.

Nice video, I enjoy the challenge of being unpredictable, the USA helps England build a North Atlantic convoy , I like a Brazilian factory with a small South Atlantic convoy into Africa's Ivory coast. often just the USA doing this secures Africa, a British African factory pretty much assures units heading through the Middle East and beyond. so 5 USA transports + warships throughout the Atlantic and the rest of their income spent as harassment against Japan, two smaller Allied Pacific fleets can often work together and get paid...

nice video - i have played the board version since it came out - with the early version, it seemed easier for the allies to win - this version seems easier for the asix to win. I am starting on the online version to play with friends and loving the strategies that you are showing here. I am seeing where I way underutilized transports for sure - which country in your opinion is the easiest to play ?

See, I don't really agree with "Focus mostly on Germany."

I never played this game, but if I was the allies I would have the us focus Japan and tie them up as much as possible while the UK and Soviet Union focus germany. Eventually the UK and Soviet Union will get the advantage on Germany which will cause Japan to send help or risk losing a teammate which in turn will ensure the us victory in the Pacific. When the us wins, they can land troops in Germany to open a new front and put more pressure on them, like in real life

In this version of the game, can the Allies take neutral Spain? There's so many more spaces on the board, it seems like it forces a North Africa first strategy, followed by Spain. At least the map still allows shuffling U.S. troops from Alaska to Kamchatka (or whatever it's called).

Thank you! What would you do in the case where Japan uses its first turn to launch a major attack in eastern Soviet Union?

I just got 1940 Europe 2nd edition. Pretty late into the game and hoping someone can answer me. If I don't have a certain unit because they are already on the board (Cruiser for UK for example), does that mean I cannot add another cruiser ? I say this with wondering if it happens that you have no more tanks for example, does that mean you have to buy something else ? Something else I was wondering. Why didn't they design the map with the Naval, Air bases on the map. It would of been less cardboard on the map to place. I'm guessing it must be because of other versions which don't use them. Would like to know if that's the case.

what about if the UK attacks in round 1 the japanese carrier and battleship in SZ 37 with the fighter from Egypt and their combined pacific fleet and loaded transports with 2 inf each? You got good chances to win the seabattle and after that you can go 4 inf vs 2 inf to take the East Indies.

My strategy relies heavily on the UK on the first turn. UK needs to build an IC in Egypt and wipe out Libya. Having that IC in Egypt allows quick troop movement to bolster Russia to hold off Germany until the US can move into Europe.
