    • Best country?

      Hello folks :D

      So i have thinking about this for a long time now, wich is the best country?

      Well it all depends right, how do you define best? Best for defense or best on ressources, 1 country cant have high income on ALL ressources but am sure there must be like for example South argentina= high rare metal and algeria= high oil and so on...

      Do you guys have any ideas?

      In my opinion i think South Argentina have high rare metal income and UK, South africa and south argentina is the best isolated countries and easy to defend... :)

      Yeah exactly! Being island gives you great advantage, I play alot with germany but only on blitzkreig not on other maps. Its a risky game with germany because you risk being attacked from all diffrent ways, and a 2 front war would be automaticly lose. Its all about offensive, crush or be crushed!

      Thats about the basics of it, being the UK lets you start fights and retreat across the channel, while any land locked nation (such as many of the US states in the 100 player map) mean you're thrown into combat

      Sorry for the misunderstanding :D. I like japan and california on the world map, and France on the blitzkreig map. On the other maps I am pretty much indifferent and I will take a random country, as I enjoy the challenge.

      Any reasons?
      Spain:
      • Easy to conquer France, and from there the rest of Europe, and you have Algeria, Río de Oro and Morocco next to you, 2 of whom are AI, and they have a lot of RM.
      • 4 starting wheat provinces. Essential for later on.
      Equatorial Gabon:
      • Easy to take Africa (taking Belgian Congo is just a walk in the park)
      • 3 starting wheat provinces.
      The past is a foreign country.

      Interestingly, these were territories of the second Spanish Republic and the Spanish State.

    • Hi all, I was just thinking about something along these lines so thanks! I've been in three games so far and each time i've been given canada to control. So far I am 3-0 so it has been good for me. Actually in this third one I am in everyone else quit and it is now only day 26 so boo. But I must say having that big pond between has been probably yhe most helpful thing. Southern US probably is very similar to canada as it doesn't open the whole two front war. Well anyhow I just wished I had more time to play in some advanced games to see how I'd hold up against the big boys! Be well
      You in 2016!

    • I've always liked Yugoslavia on the Blitzkreig map. I don't know exactly why, but I've always dominated as them when I play as the slavs, despite starting with a low tech level. Maybe it's the oil, maybe it's because I can quickly take Greece, Romania, Bulgaria, and Hungary if needed, making me much more powerful. (starting with Hungary to cut off the Balkans from Germany).

      Either Yugoslavia is a great country to star off as in Blitz, or I am just better starting off with a low level nation, as it gives me free reign really to focus on what branch of the armed forces I want to focus on most.

      Being an Island gives you a lot of disadvantages as well..

      after you take Japan, where to next?
      you will need a huge navy, and that will drain res from your army advancements, and then to be honest you need a big army to fight a land war in asia, and early on in the game, that can be tricky, building a large navy and army from japan..

      there are a good few disadvantages as well.. but still a lot of pros..

      I prefer australia, cos there a lot more to take, before you Island hope through Oceania
