Now that you're done in Iberia, perhaps those troops can be used to take those Asian islands?

NO, take iceland and Greenland and then start bombing convoys in the Atlantic. then you have a staging ground for the launch of the world's GREATEST WEAPON!

Soon all the world will fear the Red Glow of the People's Arsenal.

To Deus Eversor:
African nations do get 0 partisan activity, but only when you occupy or anex them once.
West Africa was a part of Vichy France, which was enexed by the Allies and now i control
those anexed lands. That gives me 9% partisan activity, same goes for Libya.

Although, i can't explain why Ethiopia and Somalia have no partisans
...maybe they just love the Soviets?

To Miihkali:
I don't have air cavalry and it is not a priority. I don't even have armored cavalry.
Motorbikes and horses all the way!

To Pilus Prior:
Blockade of Borneo would be nice, but i picked a wrong moment to invade it.
The Red Navy is beat up badly and i lost a whole transport fleet. But as soon as the
lost screening ships are replaced the hunt will continue!

And i invaded Borneo because it was not garrisoned, other large [and small] islands
are garrisoned very well, maybe too well ;]

To likk9922:
I would have to nuke every island if i wanted to land my soldiers on them.
The only unprotected island is Canadian Okinawa.

To Junkyard_Pope:
Iceland could be protected, since US AI is crazy about reinforcing their islands.
Maybe an invasion of South America and Caribbean would be an easier way to gain some
bases near the US? I just don't know at the moment ;D

Update nr.162

The most important news of the day - Soviet Union has THE bomb!
It is clear by now that Allies won't surrender, despite their many defeats.
This war generates huge profits for them so why stop it? That's why
Soviet Union will be forced to go nuclear on their asses sooner or later.

But i can't waste this advantage right away. The arsenal must be
expanded and one lethal blow must be delivered to the enemy.
Then, and only then, there is a slight chance that the Allies will consider peace.

On July 19th, Zhukov secured Mogadishu and continued with an attack
on Bardera. The Red Army was exhausted, but there was no time to spare,
since Americans unloaded a huge number of divisions in Tanzania.

bardera1ga6.png


Zhukov's tanks were first to fight, but they lasted the longest.
After the first day of fighting Soviet infantry had no more influence
on the outcome of the battle. Yet Zhukov continued the attack
and destroyed the largest Allied pocket in Africa so far.

This is the new Africa: the advance in the West is slow due to the inhospitable terrain,
and the advance in the East is slow due to heavy Allied resistance. Red Army has even been pushed back to the North.
But that's a temporary delay - Zhukov is already on his way!

Note that Allied garrison in Sicily had died [?] from starvation caused by the loss of Gibraltar.
VDV is sent to Italy to recapture the island.

And here is an overview of the Far East: The American advance in Borneo is stopped.
The Red Navy is resting and rearming in Vladivostok so all the naval operations are halted.
This gave time for Americans to reinforce all their islands, especially, the Bangka island
[the one with 80 US divisions on it].

Three Soviet divisions are standing by and waiting for them to attack,
but Americans are hesitating for a month now.

Bangka island could be a perfect place to show Americans the power of the new Soviet weapon.
But is it worth it? Those divisions are stuck there anyway...

Don't use your first nuke there. Save it for a necessary breakthrough.

I've gotta agree. Save the nuke for when/where you really need it.

How about massing shore attack on that island, and then doing an amphibious invasion. With all those BBs, you should be able to SERIOUSLY reduce enemy's effectivness.

Yup soon enough the opportunity will present itself where you will be able to nuke a strategic position and a lot of troops at the same time, possibly on the Phillippines. I remember a German game where I was taking back North Africa after defeating the SU and Operation Torch was fully underway and each side had more than a hundred division stacked up on the deserts of Algeria. Only then did I use the nukes. Once that was done I used the Casablanca-Bermuda-Connecticut/New Jersey route.

Nuking the stack in Japan could be a good idea, though. It'd be nice to have a Japanese puppet. Their AI, as I remember, is pretty good as a puppet.

Nuking Panama would realistically, provided the bomb was dropped near the canal, screw up American supply routes quite severly.
