The thing is I hear players saying France is too hard and Russia is balanced. How can both be true? If France is too hard and you are getting crushed then Russia you should be getting crushed.

Simple. Experience and Terrain.

Experience: Red Army has 30% experience vs 50% experience for UK units. The strategy is simple. Let the German units reducing their effectiveness by attacking French units. And then launch deadly counter attacks. I have never seen any counter attack shattering German units in 1941 with a Red Army at 30% experience.

Terrain: In USSR there is space to maneuver and to let retreat paths. In France, a narrow corridor can be easily defend.

You don't trust me, do you? I don't blame you. If there is to be a brave new world, our generation is going to have the hardest time living in it.

The next game Ara & I start I'll be on top of the allies getting MM. Fool me once, we quit the game we were just playing because 5+ turns in a row sending 100 Oil to Britian from the US didn't get there.
Britian was out of oil for 10+ turns.
I must have done something wrong or not be understanding some nuanced rule, we'll see if next game its ok.
