I really enjoy playing as Persia in the historical map because of the challenge it brings. You barely start out with much so you have to be defensive at first, embracing pacifism for a couple days to build up an economy. Good thing is that you are in a good spot geographically.
I have gotten 2nd place twice now as Persia (once in coalition and once solo). I really want to win as Persia and it offers a very strong challenge.
I am building up industry in all urban centers right now and slowly upgrading to get some attack bombers, medium tanks and SP arty and anti-air out.
In the meantime I have some armored cars, anti-air, and submarines to hold any attack for a while.
Two big coalitions are already drawing blood in Europe.
AXIS - Germany, Japan and the U.S.
Allies - France, Soviet Union and the U.K.
Poland is almost obliterated by Germany and Germany is doing extremely well in fending off combined attack from UK and France. Reminds me of something in history...
