I am not a noob .I am not interested in games like chess though I know bin is a very good game of its type.so I enjoy eu2 ,vic ,after I conquering the world in those games ,I figured it out that we can make it those the designer don’t wanna us do so .and I tried then made it! Ok ,let’s talk about strategy .it’s quite clear that the axis is comparatively weak .you can’t win the war by regular ways or according to history…that will lead to failure .now you get the idea ,then just start to analyze.
Before starting to analyze in details, I wanna you know that you must give the allied a hard blow before he knows it. the game is decided by four factors: supply ,science ,land force ,navy. you can’t compare almost all there four aspects after 1943.so never waste any time, be aggressive! or just pick the allied……the axis never have enough supply. they need them to repair the captured infrastructure. this is especially apparent for Japan. as to navy, Germany is……linger on in a steadily worsening condition if you make any breakthrough. and the Japanese land force is too weak meanwhile severely lacking of resource! the situation seems that difficult, but the good point is Russia and USA haven’t join the war yet. we can wipe one of them out before we face another one! here comes my comment
1. Germany vs. AI
That’s quite tough , I have to acknowledge ,because Japan helps little under AI’s control. Japan will take the costal Chinese province and the southeast Asia .that means nothing to Germany ,if any. so if you wanna take Germany, then prepare to fight to death.
It seems that the Germany have little choose but eastward or westward.(ok ,maybe you think you can take north Africa and go east, but that’s too risky and rewardless ,so I think you’ll regret that unless some breakthrough is made in this point).what about go east? the computer does this and seems quite good .but, remember you’ll get no help through Japan. It’s not that easy taking Russia, and before you do that, the west France and the Mediterranean sea are under attack! and I think Japan will be dying after you take the whole super large Russia(more grids than the total some of USA, Canada and china). you can’t count on axis country under AI’s control(sigh).so it’s not a very good choice. then only way left is going westward. what to do then? yes you got it, take London first! build transport ship and tactical bomber .upgrade the bomber’s movement to attack London and the ships in Atlantic. then take Canada and give us a surprise is a good idea. if Washington is fallen, then Moscow is nothing but a piece of cake. and the Japan will survive.
2. Japan vs. AI
Ok ,that’s it, I wanna tell you how I have the world under control in 1945.the game setting is normal ,advanced supply. as you can see, Japan have more ships than Germany and most important they have aircraft carriers! that makes Japanese strategy plentiful .
first, take the whole china. seems cool but I have reasons not using Japan to invade my homeland, even in a game. and as a matter of fact, it takes time any gain a little, most of the time they won’t handicap your plan, so let them be. second take the eastern Russia and meet the germens in Ural. if you take this step, then be sure to destroy the whole eastern troop in Russia, then nothing can stop you. but after taking Russia, you’ll find Germany is under siege and the Italy always have surrendered .then you’ll gonna facing the furious WA fleets, good luck buddy. another job is to take the south east. Japan have little land force so if you wanna take the whole islands there and repair the resource you want deadly, you have to postpone the plan of taking china or eastern Russia , I’ m not sure whether you can resume it or not under us fleets’ pressure…..
Then it comes to the point: how can I do it in 1945!?if you are still reading this thread, give me three cheers ,lol. ok, the problem is the USA! you know that! let’s have a look what jape have at first. many transport ships around the east Chinese and some near the islands in south asia.5 heavy 5 light and 4 carriers. do you notice the USA is frozen ?!yes ,the vital problem. now you may got the idea, yes take the mainland of USA ,then it’s horrible production will disappear without trace. you can build supply and several transport ships to prepare the sudden attack. the target will be south west. you know you want to destroy the ships and planes there. Use your light and heavy to support the first attack then send troops and supply as many as possible to USA for another attack towards Washington !!!!Never let them have a break. here lays some tricks about how to use your carriers. if you’ve got a good luck, you can reach your goal by just using 2 of them. then what about the other 2?the advice is never waste any chance like this. the USA fleets’ fate is in your hand. give them an even harder blow! do you notice Hawaii? there just stands a militia ,USA should pay for the carelessness. if you take it, more than half of the USA fleets sinks. I don’t think the left will do a good job except being taken out by your subs maybe. you can move on without my superfluous words , right ?lol.[:D]
Finally if you face human players these strategy still works but harder. you should change your plans according to what your counterparts do. Here’s my experience:
1. Japan never have enough supply, continue build it to repair or move your ships.
2. Assembling all your elite troops to attack as Japan, they have little land force and can hardly suffer any losses, or lack of supply and severely lagged behind in science is inevitable.
3. never waste the manpower. build militia if you have no idea what to build, especially for Japan.
4. good luck!
Here just something about what I know about this game, mistakes are inevitable. please help me to solve it. I’d be very appreciate that. and I wanna say sorry to ,I react to much to him, those days I kept trying and got nothing but failure, that made me feel hopeless and somewhat mad. Lol[:D]
Thank you for reading.[8D]
