The Red Flag flys above Paris...now what?

As the USSR, its August 1942, after 15 months of hard fighting, the Red Army has crushed the fascist pigs!

What to do now?

Puppet or occupy?
Focus on the navy and airforce?

I plan to conquer Britain, Norway, Sweden, Greece, Turkey, Persia, Afghanistan, Nat.Spain, Move into the Middle-East and Manchuria...as far as I can tell, the world is Stalins oyster?

What about nuclear and rocket techs?

Any advice or ideas would be much appreciated .
John.

I've just noticed something funny/strange.

I've just created the Italian Socialist Republic...whose govt is strangely made up of fascists...and whose head of state is Mussolini...this is stupid enough lol..

However, Mussolini is STILL the head of government for Italy itself...and its armaments minister.

So he is working in two governments which are at war with each other...
What is he doing, spending most of his time on a plan flying between rome and sicily? And some how managing to blag it to the King...'oh, I just go up there to visit family your highness...'

Silly Mussolini, never knowing what side he's on :P

Anyways...Personally as USSR I'm trying to fend off the Germans....Hoping that if I stall them long enough that good ol' lend-lease will pay off and I can pwn the Germans....Blitzed into Romania at first to 'cause TC problems for Germany and to make his quest for oil more difficult, not to mention kill off all Romanian divisions. Now I'm holding him steadily just short of those 2 big rivers, trying to push forward on all fronts....Finding it very difficult. Anyways, my goal? Paint the world red, no allies, no puppets, no relations with anyone except "War". But this is just me, other's prefer things like puppets and allies, but I prefer direct control...I also edited the partisans a wee bit >_< to how it was in like 1.2.

Anyways...With the axis wiped out....Either pick on neutrel nations or take on the allies....Or pick on neutrel nations until the cold war flares up. Make sure your army is big enough(I imagine it is :P), then work on air force/navy. If your planning on invading someone accross the ocean, obviously work on Navy, otherwise improve your air force.
