Everyone is talking about Alien Invasion, and I'm sitting here posting 1939 guide..
Introduction: Thailand is a 1 star Axis country in South East Asia. Surrounded by 2 Major Power (Britain and France) and 2 Regional Power (China and India). Thailand economy is generally poor, only generating 78 Gold, 30 Steel and 20 Oil before taking other cities. Thailand has 1 general, Phibun, which commanded an Assault Infantry.
General used: 1 Eyeless General (not upgraded), used in a Medium Tank. Built in New Delhi
1. Conquering South-East Asia
You need Hanoi, Singapore and Yangon to survive and building your army to take on both India and China. Your initial forces is enough for taking Hanoi. Bomb Wavell with Field Artillery before taking Yangon. Build Motorized Infantry to take Singapore. Keep off the coast because Britain have a powerful Navy Taskforce nearby.
2. Invading India
A. Take Kolkata with infantry. It is undefended and you can take it easily.
B. Take New Delhi with your main force, flush Thimayya out from New Delhi if you can. If not, just shell him with your Field Artillery.
3. Sino-Thai War
Take Lhasa to give you a Forward Base of Operation and take Dihua, city east from it, and Chongking. Japan will help you with taking Wuhan, Nanking, and Hongkong. China will surrender at this point.
4. Two Front War
A. Take Tehran, it is ALWAYS essential because Tehran connects Western Front and the Eastern one.
B. Take Manila, it will ease the Japanese Navy in the Pacific
C. Take Jakarta and Port Moresby, it will be used later in the Invasion of Australia
5. Eastern Avalanche
A. Take Saratov and Yekaterinburg to give you a staging base to take Moscow. Take Moscow from there, beware of Land Fort near Moscow.
B. Take the Mongolian city in the east and take Ulan Bator. Japan sometimes help you take it or they take it for themselves.
6. Middle East Campaign
A. Take Ankara, remember to surround Inonu before attacking him. It will lower his morale, easier for you to kill him.
B. (Scenario A) Take Stalingrad to fight the victorious Soviet Army in the West.
7. Scramble for Africa
Take Jerusalem, cross the Suez canal and take Cairo. From there you can bomb enemy city and take it with paratrooper. Take the 2 Allied city in the south, take Tripoli and blitz to Algiers, Casablanca, and Dakar. At this time France should surrender (if Scenario A happens, forget it)
8. The Lone Continent
Take Darwin with Commandos or you can bomb it and take it with paratrooper, either way it doesn't matter. From there, take Brisbane with all your troops. Try to make Land Forts to soften up Blamey, but it will take some time and many Land Forts because of 240 health. Take Hawaii from Port Moresby.
9. Final Assault
A. Invade America from Florida. Take Washington and New York, usually at half health thanks to Regia Marina and Kriegsmarine. Take Toronto and Ottawa, at this time the US and Canadian army should crumble or non existent already, you can take Denver, Texas, Los Angeles and San Francisco (both usually at half health or no health at all, thanks to the Japanese Navy) very easily. Take Vancouver and continue to Edmonton and the city below it. Invade the lone city in the island north of Quebec. Congratulations!!!
For the unlucky players:
Scenario A (European Axis countries lose the war)
Follow the guide until number 8.
1. Counterattack
A. Take Leningrad, Riga, and Helsinki. Kill enemy paratrooper before advancing, if it becomes too much for you, put mines because paratrooper cannot land on mines.
B. Take Minsk and Warsaw. Use Heavy and Medium tank here because of the number of enemy paratrooper you will face and enemy generals.
C. Take Kiev, Krakow, and Bucharest. Build your army first because you need to attack swiftly. A stalled attack will make the resistance stiffer.
2. Our Finest Hour
A. Take Berlin and Amsterdam, be used to raiding from RAF. Continue your assault to Cologne, Bruxelles, and Paris. French resistance should crumble by now. Mop up Bordeaux. Assault French positions in Spain by taking A Coruna and Seville.
B. Take Prague (already taken in the photo), Munich and Zurich. Always build troop in the city or enemy paratrooper will take it. Take Lyon, you can build your army again to take Madrid and Barcelona. Recieve the French delegations in a carriage to establish your dominance.
C. Take Budapest and Vienna, attack Belgrade with infantry. From Istanbul, take Athens and Sofia. At this rate the Red Army cannot mount up another offensive and in a state of permanent retreat. Take Rome and Naples to force the Soviet to Unconditional Surrender
3. The Fall of an Empire
A. Take Copenhagen and Oslo with paratrooper instead of attacking it in conventional way
B. Establish secure beachheads and siege London and the city west of it. Take Manchester and continue to Scotland. Take Dublin and hear Winston Churchill talk about their defeat in BBC radio.
4. Final Assault
Establish secure beachheads in Quebec and invade the city north of it. Drive your way to Ottawa.
A. Take Toronto, Edmonton and the city below it. Take Vancouver. Continue to Alaska if Japan haven't take it yet.
B. Take New York and Washington (you need to lower the health of these cities by yourself, as Kriegsmarine and Regia Marina is in the bottom of the ocean). Take Florida and Texas. Take Denver, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. USA and Canada should surrender by now. Congratulations!!!
This game takes me 94 turns, maybe 76 turns without Scenario A.
