I need to do Italy on normal but I'm have headache so for Italy what are good ideas to win Focus on egypt and gibraltar. To have nice borders, you are gonna declare war on vichy France when they spawn. Vichy France will have no troops, so just take your fastest units and capture all the vps in France and Africa, and you'll get all their territory for free. Meanwhile, I'll call you in against Egypt. You should have most of your troops there except a few to conquer vichy france and a couple to guard Italy. Push the British back, and conquer Egypt and the middle east. After that, I'll need your navy to support landings in the British Isles. You should also do some landings in the African territories of the allies, but nobe of those besides Gibraltar, Egypt, and South Africa should be very hard. After that, I have nothing specific until the Soviets, where you and Romania should coordinate to encircle and destroy the units defending the black sea. Oh, also by event you will invade Greece around the begining of 1941 i think, so make sure you have units there. Hopefully the middle east will be dead by then. Your build strategy should reflect this. Personally, I say focus on navy, marines and normal infantry, because you will be fighting in territory where tanks and other types of infantry aren't good. Naval bombers are good for ensuring superiority in the med, while fighters should protect your ships and bombers from enemy planes. As Italy, I'd focus on battleships and not carriers. Ok how about supply and Ethiopia what settings also should I put AI |

Ok how about supply and Ethiopia what settings also should I put AI You might as well forget about Ethiopia while the war is going on. The only use it has is to defend and to draw away enemy troops for as long as possible. There's no chance that it will stay under your grasp during the whole war, so I'd use it to just draw away enemy troops unless you really decide to fill it up with troops. Focus on Libya though. Idk about AI and supply, I'd talk to Philip II of Macedon about it. |

Also, do we want to use the cheat for no neutrality? It would make taking over the Balkans and other areas a hell of a lot easier.

You auto get it at the game start, so you can take over bulgaria or whatever just by taking the event, joining the axis, and declaring a limited war. |

Ok how about supply and Ethiopia what settings also should I put AI Ethiopia is easy, you just need to invade the 1 vp there. For the actual war, I usually just defend it and use my navy to keep supplies open until I'm done with the other areas, but if you don't want to do that just abandon it and come back after the middle east. As for supplies, make sure you create enough convoys as to always have a surplus, and enough escorts to defend them. You can also send some of your navy on escort missions. Don't forget to take malta, its easy and its a British air and naval base. As for ic, i usually put an additional 10 or so ic into supplies prewar so I can have a big stockpile. Ai should be normal. |

Im pretty sure you get Bohemia and Moravia, but then Slovakia becomes your puppet. But for a short period, it is purely independent. I was hoping to gain it during that short period. But if you want it, its fine  Really? I thought it just directly became my puppet. You are welcome to it if you want, assuming I'm wrong. In 1936 it's not. |
