Invading the US

[Sh4ark]

So.. was anyone able to do it? with the Marines nerf it seems very hard.
Tried doing a bunch of invasions along the east coast as Germany.. i'm having a hard time capturing the ports.. and even when i do i get surrounded and pounded into oblivion by the gazilion divisions they have.. more than 500 i think.. it's pretty late..1945 and my tanks don;t have the punch they had anymore but i'm still using medium tanks so maybe heavy tanks would do better.. but the supply.. ugh

Conquer the islands from the Allies in the Caribbean Sea, build ports and airports there, so they can operate as your bases. Get air superiority and spam CAS and bombers while you nuke the shit out of the US until you get a foothold in Florida and move to the upper part of the state. Hold the line there until the USA depleted all the manpower and/or equipment and roll over them with ease. Nukes are pretty disgusting against the AI since 1.5. They destroy a lot strength and organization now and since the AI stacks a lot divisions very often...

Worked perfectly in my last game, but I have to admit that I used divisions with Modern Tanks and Mechanized Inf. as breakthrough template, while the normal infantry held the lines.
