Exactly, the U.S is impossible to lose with, so it is therefore neither fun or challenging.
Axis Minors make the best games I think, (Japan, Italy, Romania).
I have seen the German Ai pull of sea lion several times, but that won't happen if you keep the RN around.
bests
1-Germany (played millions of times)
2-SU ( by the begining of 1941 you're a ic and manpower monster)
3-Turkey ( can join all of alliances as to conditions ..just choose)
4-Italy ( challange )
5-Japan (not bad)
worsts
1-Great Britain (totally boring)
2-China (very low tech , no ic , no commander ,also no ic around possible enemies)
3-US ( assault weak Germany ai , so to Japan and finish the game..then what? cant declare war anyone)

US is good. Enormous resource potential. I love allying with Germany and conquering american continent
the nr 1 best small contry is NORWAY.
we fogth the germans for 10-12 months.
thats the longest a country that has been invaded by germany has fougth.
hyms "ja vi elsker dette landet"

Argentina rules!Conquering South America is fun. btw best minor is FINLAND. we fought russians in terrible winter and we didn't even got conquered
Why is playing the USA fun?
The USA is in the best defensible position in the game. Massive oceans to the east and west, Mexico and other horribly weak nations to the south, Allied Canada to the north, and you must take every mainland province to annex.
You usually wind up having to manage a two front war, one oceanic, the other terran.
You have at your command the mightiest industrial machine on the planet, enabling you to research everything and still pump out a massive army.
You can join any of the three alliances.
Blue is a much nicer color to paint the world, a lot more soothing than gray or red.

All bow down in front of the moghty empire of Kemchiik-ool and Salchak Toka, all hail Tannu tuva!!!!!
Germany is the best country to play, if for no other reason that the AI can really suck as Germany which makes the game too easy.
To me any of the non-major powers are really bad to play. I don't see the thrill in playing a minor. If you want that "minor feel" play Italy.

Say that thing about Albania again efter reading what iv done in my AAR. if they can get into the comitern they can assume military controll of their allies and use the comitern fleet to keep the Regia Marina at bay.
as for Naples and Bhutan go read Steeles AARs

You proved my point nicely, as anyone with an I.Q over that of an Gopher could not possibly be annexed or puppeted, or "lose" (quotations because not many people use victory points as a determination of winning/losing, often simply surviving is winning). And since theres no real possiblity of defeat, how is it challenging? And Im my opinon, anything thats overly easy or not challening does not equal 'fun'.
Seems to me the people that think the U.S is a fun game, are the same people who think shooting caged birds qualifies as hunting.
But hey, every player is entitled to their own jollies, I suppose that trying to see how early you can Nuke the AI can qualify as entertainment.
I find the US fun because a) I'm an American and b) there is no preset path to victory. Play as Germany, and you will find yourself attacking Poland, then the low countries, then France. Play as the USSR, you will find yourself defending against Germany. As the US, however, there is no set road to take - moreoever, if you steel yourself a bit and wait until Dec 41 to join the allies (or until attacked by the Axis), you have to come up with a solid plan to influence the war quickly. I always play semi historically (I have around 15 divisions at the end of '41) and its fun trying to stave off the Japenese in the Pacific while also trying to get the Western Allies into Europe with limited available military resources. Alot of times the game is pretty far gone - one game Germany had over 1000 IC's and had taken all big 3 cities and was only missing Magnitorisk for the bitter piece, and we had a Yank/Kraut throwdown in Western and Eastern Europe. Other times its a race to Berlin before the big red bear gets there first. There's rarely any threat to the North American continent but I still have a blast trying to remake the world map after 3 years of fighting have gone by.
