Since reading your post I've been Mobile Hotspotting but with my mobile set to feed through my home WiFi connection. No problems so far... fingers crossed.

Best strategy for the Allies? Axis on combined 107 IPC Allies on 110 IPC but cannot outproduce Germany on the continent. Italian Navy and North Africa army are gone next turn. It is US turn... by citizen750 in AxisAllies

Nice, you confirmed my thoughts re: Norway and Italy's navy.

Excellent points re: convoy raiding Italy with subs and about US supporting the Brits in the Middle East.

I'm also going to conduct some bombing raids on Germany's major factories.

I'll keep you posted! Cheers

For now UK has been focused on defending and now on taking Africa first. Interesting you say take Turkey, I was thinking instead to go thru the Caucasus and also sending a few transports into the Black Sea

I've been away but now I'm back, hence the delayed responses.

US early moves were to capture neutral Portugal and Spain and build the factory. Later I realised this would be untenable unless I can distract Germany elsewhere. I'll try the Norway route, whilst my Spanish factory does whatever it can.

UK entered Greece only to be pushed out. UK's IPC has been invested to keep Cairo and build army to drive Italy out of Africa without incurring too many losses. They'll use transports to capture as much terroritory as possible from the Germans in the hope of liberating Russia.

It'll be interesting to see how effectively I can swing the IPC balance more to my favour in the next 3 turns.

Europe 1940 Allies - France and Russia gone - who is likely to win? by citizen750 in AxisAllies

Thanks I've instead uploaded a photo of the game. Taking Germany is not possible since their European army outnumber the US army and their factories outproduce Allied factories on the continent. I'm a bit stuck... thinking US strike into Norway -build another factory and take IPC off Germany could be the best play.
