Got a few questions if someone can help.

A friend and I are playing the long road to war, it's 1940 and I am US, my friend is UK.

I've been building a few things here and there but mostly pouring 300-400 IC into research to get that wonderful tech advantage.

I am 1 year away from B-29s, and 2-3 away from nukes.

No one has attacked me as of yet, and I am not able to enter the war either.

Any suggestions would be appriciated.

Forget the heavy bombers. Stay working on the improved medium tank with the 70mm gun. BUILD LOTS. Develop Paratroops. Build 10 divisions with 10 Transports. Load the 1.05C patch. Build lots of Marines and some transports. Build up your infantry technology.

Send Britain the tanks and take out the Italians. Use the Paratroopers to finish off the stray Italian provinences in Africa. When Japan attacks, invade Japan with your Marines immediately.
You'll win.

To make the situation more interresting you should add one or two more humans to the game. Japan and perhaps Germany.
The german player should be able to take at least France and Poland, and the Japan player should be able to take out China and Vietnam. Then you meet them as USA, and it's gonna be a hell...

That would be lot more fun, when you try to use those marines on Japan in the late war, or you nuke'em. The rikusentai would surely be in for revenge. And there will be some awesome naval battles that an AI player could not handle.
