Germany-You have lots of land, and lots of money, but you have to split that between 3 fronts, while simultaneously trying to get to USA as fast as possible before they become a problem. Also, all of your good generals usually die within the first ten rounds. Germany should be green, use your resources and Student to slaughter the Soviet Generals. Flank Stalingrad from South using units made in Athens and Use Landforts there. Bomb Timoshenko to ground and then go for Soviet Capital and then for Saratov and then Yekatinburg. Using Badoglio in Africa will help a lot there and you need to take Tripoli and then spend one turn on capturing cities by fighters and paratroopers. Then march on Egypt. As of UK, missile London and capture it and then use some turns to capture UK. Build your Navy and Army to Land in Canada, but beware of America, they will nuke so you will need some nuke fodders. Build units in Africa to capture South America and you can attack Mexico and Eventually USA from South.This takes much devotion, and bombing Soviet Super Tank generals isn't that simple. There is a way if you get Guderian, Model, Bock, and Rundstedt to charge suicidally at Moscow, then a Super Tank general spawn there, and will just stay there until it dies. If you force the AI into the defensive (which is very hard in AXIS 1943), then they will stay on the defensive, so you will never have to worry about Minsk being overrun, and take your time on the British front. Directly threatening Leningrad, Stalingrad, and Moscow by defeating Koniev, Chuikov, Govorov, Timoshenko, and eventually Zhukov.

You have 1300+ gold and enough oil, just use Student( 4 star air ability) to slaughter Soviet Generals. As of Timoshenko, bomb him using whole Turn's resources when there is no situation of Emergency. Play defensive on British front. Use Badoglio on African Front and you have got Rommel. You just need to capture Tripoli and using the resources of only tutn, you can conquer whole Africa except Egypt. Don't even think of attacking Moscow before both Leningrad and Stalingrad fall. As of the British Navy, few submarines will destroy them.

now for 1950. 3* UK-The best 3* country to play as. Send your prespawned generals south to Africa, so you can break into the Middle East from there. Nuke Bangkok, and you can either play defensive in Europe, or Asia until you have enough money to launch an attack. I personally defend Europe, since my islands are easy to defend.
France-Good game in Europe, the problem is, your outpost in Asia is outgunned. You need to play very well with Assault Infantry if you are to create a stable front in Asia.
USA-The easiest era to play USA. Send forces from the Philippines to Hong Kong and Taipei, and dig into the Chinese from there, while NATO in Europe will protect themselves with only minimal interference from your troops.
Soviet Union-WTO is just hard in general. You have to cross a neutral country and run into rugged French defenses very early in the game, while the US finds a need to nuke Timoshenko in the east.
PRC-Not too bad. Easiest game as PRC. Beat the US Navy, and you have undisputed control of the Pacific, while you send troops into Europe through the Balkans. Europe will be hard, but by the time you finish the USA, the Europeans will be fighting on two fronts.
2*
Turkey-best 2* country to play as. Beat the initial wave of Soviet troops, knock out Iraq, and beat Iran. Then victory is sealed for you.
Sweden-you will be taking the brunt of the Soviet fist. You will attract plenty of generals and you have no nukes. Goodluck.
Mexico-OK economy, infallible, and easy immediate enemy, the problem is that everyone else is on the other side of the world.
Japan-You will be dealing with nukes, but you have missiles. retake Korea, and play defensive until Lin Biao, Peng Dehuai and their gang are death. Then sweep into Asia. The Soviets tend to not protect their capital, so nuke Moscow, and nuke everything else.
Spain-Easy. You are infallible. Dominate Africa, storm the Middle East, and create and offensive to Thailand. Europe will fall accordingly.
Canada-If the Chinese take Japan, you will be the next target. However there will be lots of Japanese cities open for you to take. Europe is always easy for NATO
Australia-you must create a stable front in Asia, but after that, you've won.
Poland-It is just annoying. Soviet will do their best to steal your cities, and you will be doing most of the work. You better hope to god that China does will in Asia too.
1*
North Korea-imagine being the Asian version of Poland, except that you are fighting the USA, and constantly getting nuked.
South Korea-Japan will not make it in time to save you, and if they do, it will be a minimal effort. Good luck.
ROC-Jump on Chongking, and do your best to hold on to it. Defeat China, then move on to Europe. The beginning will be very tricky
Portugal-you will have a slow start, but your victory will be sealed once that start is made.
Iraq-you will have an extremely fast start taking Ankara, but Europe will be hell
Iran-still in yellow, even though closer to Asia than Iraq, you will still have the same difficulty.
Cuba-The only way you can win this, is to get nukes, or a lvl 4 factory ASAP. Jump on Mexico, then expand into L.A.
Brazil-Same case as Mexico, except that the Pacific is even farther away.
Egypt-Good luck beating the Soviets to Ankara, while Greece is trigger happy on their Super Tanks. Win the war in Africa, and enter Europe via Iberia.
Mongolia-Would you like to just not have a port where a port is difference between victory and defeat, and be landlocked as well as far away from every front? Mongolia can provide you with that.
Thailand-I cannot stress enough the fact that having a navy, or at least a strong sub fleet will be the only thing that helps you win The Pacific.

You have to cross a neutral country and run into rugged French defenses very early in the game, while the US finds a need to nuke Timoshenko in the east. I still don't understand why Malinovsky is on a rocket artillery lol. 2* Mexico-OK economy, infallible, and easy immediate enemy, the problem is that everyone else is on the other side of the world. Mexico is a one-star nation.Japan-You will be dealing with nukes, but you have missiles. retake Korea, and play defensive until Lin Biao, Peng Dehuai and their gang are death. Then sweep into Asia. The Soviets tend to not protect their capital, so nuke Moscow, and nuke everything else. Also, Okamura is as good as dead in 1950 and 1960 since he is programmed to get nuked at Tokyo. Remove him from there and let him go away from Chinese nukes, unless you want him as a nuke-bait.
Poland-It is just annoying. Soviet will do their best to steal your cities, and you will be doing most of the work. You better hope to god that China does will in Asia too. On the plus side, you have the most effective missile facility among two-star nation in the early game. The only use of Australian and Canadian missiles are to nuke Brisbane and New York.
1*South Korea-Japan will not make it in time to save you, and if they do, it will be a minimal effort. Good luck. South Korea 1950 and 1960 is much worse than Belgium 1939 and Yugoslavia 1939, therefore it should be a dark red. It may be not enough to have max tech and the best generals. You might need ion cannon laser to quickly kill China before China kills you.Iraq-you will have an extremely fast start taking Ankara, but Europe will be hellIran-still in yellow, even though closer to Asia than Iraq, you will still have the same difficulty. Iraq and Iran are both two-star nations. Not mentioned Greece-one of the one-star nations recommended for beginners. You have a super tank in Crete. You can create more super tanks. Greece is possible with only Badoglio and Goring/Govorov. By the time Turkey gets defeated, you have enough forces to destroy the already weak Soviets. Good luck on grinding medals for Guderian.

It's pretty easy to prevent Manstein from spawning in 1943. Take Minsk on t4 and you are all set. Novikov's strategic bombing is enough to do that.
Conquering the Alps (including Zurich, Munich, Milan, and maybe Vienna) is key to western European NATOs. Therefore France, Spain, and Portugal are my recommendations for this conquest. Take New Delhi and happy airstriking in Asia.
You forgot Hungary and Bulgaria as well. The key for them is to annex Romania and do an Alps conquest from the east towards Lyon with super tanks.

Some one did manage to beat 1950 and 1960 SK without generals and ion cannon. Really fascinating but I've only seen one for each.

Until then, Okamura must get stranded on a carrier in the Pacific Ocean before getting allowed to return lol. On defeating SK 1950/1960 without generals and ion cannon, I think we must make a challenge like this in the near future.

How is ROC 1939 hard? Just send all your generals to the north and Shanghai, and you'll be good. Taking changchun to get rid of japanese para spam is pretty easy, and defending Shanghai won't be a problem if you just stop all the landing crafts with arty. After japan dies, just turn around and wipe out germany.

After japan dies, just turn around and wipe out germany. heheh no ROC is not the hardest. The problem is that you are fighting on several different fronts with all your generals on light infantry. I usually get up to attacking Changchun without Govorov, and then the Japanese wipe out all my half health light infantry generals. Then, there's also the fronts on Hong Kong and Shanghai. If you succeed in defending one, then you will fail in defending the other. It's just how AI works. Also, you have to send troops to Europe ASAP if you don't want to be slogging it out in Poland for 30 turns. That means even LESS generals. It isn't as bad as ROC '50, but it is hard for beginners. My experience will be able to manage it yes, but there are easier conquests to play, and I recently wiped my progress to play the Cheap Generals Challenge. My 2* conquest for 1939 will be Spain. Not because it is easy, but because you are easily out of the grinding stage as soon as you cap Paris, and by using the airports in Africa, you can wipe out an entire front within ten rounds.

After japan dies, just turn around and wipe out germany. "Just turn around and wipe out Germany" If only it is that easy for beginners. By the time they turn around, Germany has defeated USSR and is ready for a huge paraspam, which will take them forever to beat. They have to send troops to Europe from the very being for a stronghold to prevent that, but that's beyond the scope of a beginner.

But if you have none of those, the best thing you can hope for is a stalemate in Europe because of constant paraspam by Germany.
