    • It all depends on the map and doctrine.
      Axis. Slow to produce early on and expensive.
      Allied. The Tac bomber is superb when levelled up.
      Pan Asian. A/Cs are fast, good view range and awesome when levelled up, same goes for militia due to terrain bonus.
      Comintern. All I can say is that you can produce quickly.
      The above said it is horses for courses, depending on map, neighbours and economy.
      I know this might sound like heresy, but I rarely use tanks, anti tank or infantry.
      Regarding navy, Subs and Cruisers all the way.
      probably given away my game plan, but hey ho.

      "Why would you want to attack, yourself?" Bad grammar I think ^^

      Sort of a "let's eat grandma" instead of "let's eat, grandma" type of scenario

    • The question of whether to prioritize the economy or the military is subjective and depends on the specific goals and challenges a country faces. In general, a balanced approach that considers both aspects is often deemed more effective. A strong economy provides the resources necessary for military capabilities, while a well-equipped and capable military can help ensure national security and stability, which in turn supports economic development. Striking a careful balance between economic strength and military readiness is crucial for a nation's overall well-being and resilience.

    • I have found that often it depends on the map.

      The larger the map, the more gold spenders show up, and you had better be ready to spend it too, or you will get clobbered. The heavy gold spenders show here, because the game goes longer, so they have their new favorite toy last longer, until the next game. Look for them to buy 10 stacks of bombers, 4 or 5 times over early. Look for them to be on fast maps, 10 stacks of medium tanks is not uncommon.

      I hate to admit, but I love spending gold when I can, though I usually spend it on defense.

      1/3 each industry (including recruiting stations), combat units, and tech, is how I usually spend. I tend to avoid the gold spending, unless I find myself between 3 or more opponents.

      I tend to play most often on smaller maps to try to avoid the big spenders. It doesn't always work, but usually I can keep up with them there more often. :D
