So, this thread is for crazy tactics that you have used before. Also, my slightly fantasy sounding role playing. Skip it by going down to all the emoticons thingies.
It is the year day 32 in the galaxy game 1308020, when the evil hordes of Kentucky, using their dark sorcery of high command and gold use that possibly but not necessarily counts as spamming (because I don't know how much he actually uses), have taken over the southern half of the fair land of North America, and more than half of it's southern neighbor, as well as the entirety of Africa, excepting Madagascar, and their almost but not quite as evil allies the North USA-ans, who own most of the rest of North America, the other third of it's southern neighbor, and a portion of Europe, leaving most of the unoccupied territory in the west to Ontario. When the fair people of Syria tried to protect the people of Eastern Africa, they were brutally attacked (to be honest, the Syria player did leave a border spanning from the Mediterranean to the Cape entirely unprotected) and have been pushed back to Arabia, while the free peoples of Kazakhstan, Turkestan, and Volga Perm commit huge forces to stem the Kentuckian tide. Meanwhile, I, as leader of Volga Nzhny, the nation no one has heard of because it doesn't exist IRL, have decided to help, but really haven't done much. But the not much is what this post is about. I will try and stop imagining that I am speaking in an oddly sinister voice now.

So, after several mid game confrontations with Yugoslavia, both of which I lost, along with all my Europe-proper territory, we became best buds. Then he went inactive. (His military really could have helped against Kentucky, especially because of the flanking position.) So, I decided to get rid of my 15 light tanks by sending them through Yugoslavian occupied Greece (because the AI left me RoW when the player stopped playing) and invade north Africa. It worked like a charm. After about a day of travel, my light tanks are now in Egypt. But here's the thing: Kentucky has 28% of the world's military power, according to today's newspaper stats. So I can't stay in one place, my tanks will be crushed by his massively advanced forces. So I use the tactic I used much earlier game against Arkhangelsk when I realized I couldn't attack in any direction because he'd just outflank me: I make my guys cut as far into their territory as possible, never stopping to defend my new provinces, and just keep going until they die. It worked remarkably well earlier, cause I took out his capital and majorly disrupted his production of resources and units. So, here what my tanks should do, before they die (BANZAI!!!!):

share your weird and wacky tactics below. Oh yeah, and if T-bone or Anson Meyer see this, R.I.P. light tanks will be said a lot sooner.
