I can't be the only one who hates Thimayya in 1960 when playing as NATO; it's like a 60's version of Brisbane in '39.

True, battle of New Delhi is one of the biggest bloodsheds in 1960.

As I remember, when played for Germany I have sent there supertanks train from Tehran to China and captured New Delhi on the way, but that way to the nearest Chinese airport took quite long time.

Yeah; Chongking AND Dihuna are also stressful to take with the F.A. staying there. China <3's paratroopers & missiles. Freaking Manstein / Eisenhower always get nuked. Stupid China can't accept their fate.

Manstein, whenever I tried this as Italy or Germany, I sent Konev and Manstein north to capture the tier I Russian city ( I forget the name ) and Khabarovsk. However, they always get nuked, along with airstrikes on my super tanks. Either way, I get nuked / missiled / airstriked / paratroopered . But if it works for you, then that's great! Sidenote: Doing Belgium in 1960; so much fun.

I never played 1960 NATO, but why is it hard to capture New Dehli?

hmm, I remember Thimayya blocking me on field artillery, so it was probably 1960. but I certainly agree, is much harder to make your way into china. The primary difficulty of india, is that it is industry level 2, and considering that its between your goal and Iran that makes super tanks, it essentially serves as lengthening the barrier to china.
And then you get a airport and unload 9+ nuclear bombs on the paratroopers familes.
I remember one time fighting into communist Asia, only to find that the (russians or chinese, not sure) had conquered the entire western half of north america! so of course I have to liberate it. You'd think the americans and their generals would have been able to roll back the tide since I was cutting off the communists resources, but nope. #noob moments
I thought this was going to be a post about whether to buy thimayya or not, lol.

Try to build something to keep them busy would work to prevent them conquer America because they conquer America using the paratroop

For me China did so. I have almost failed to clear in 65 turns because of that.

LOL Thimayya annoyness is stem from no nuclear can land on his head and that 200 hp ( most generals of 1960 have more than that , tbh ) . Thimayya is basically weak and junk because no star and low hp . Buying him like buying a Meyer without even a useful purpose .

Here's why I think so: Every time I try to capture New Dehli, I run into a lot of problems. 1. He's out of reach of Tehran's airport 2. His F.A. is annoying; even super tank spam only does about 10-15 damage on him per tank 3. His health is <250 4. Land forts / bunkers everywhere. 5. things.
