Hi everyone, i have a annoying problem with those bloody aliens. I finished Thailand 1975 twice, the first time i tried (when just achieved level 7 art) and one more after a few failures. What happen now is with some upgrades (gold, steel, oil wonders level 2), Patton and level 7 tanks it becomes absolutely impossible ( i have been about a week trying and my best is turn 50). I know i should upgrade artillery and maybe hire another art general, but my question is Does the difficult is increased due to something or i had been amazingly lucky in the past? I have ion cannon level one (useless in fact), Badoglio, Ozawa, Guderian, Konev and Patton; paramotorized level 5 i guess, art and tank level 7 as i said and inf about 5 or 6.
Thanks for reading and any feedback will be appreciated.
PD: My strategy is barely the same that best75 give us. Thanks for that and thanks also to netherfreak for his unbeliavable work for the community.

I must ask, why no Govorov? He's #1 Artillery
I cannot help further since I never did Thailand for Aliens

IMO first of all you need 6th gen, Govorov would be very good choice. Also upgrading atomic nukes to lv2 would be useful, and some upgrade of missiles would help too.
Regarding strategy, I played for Saudi, which is close to Thailand and has almost the same situation. First of all throw all forces to capture Chongking (not a big problem if you lose homeland during that time), than produce nukes and proceed with nukes and PMI. Watch for cities, which are not protected and proceed as fast as you can. While your allies are alive, you don't have much problems, as big part of aliens attack them and don't bother you.

I already have level 5 nukes (just before the expensive upgrade to get antimatter), no missiles due to it is not really worth (in my opinion) have it in longer range than your paratroopers. Konev was a mistake (the more expensive the better) because i expected to only have 2 artillery generals plus 2 tanks, Göering and Yamamoto. Now i am going for govorov and then change Ozawa for Yamamoto.
Talking about strategy, my allies resist less than 10 turns. Only GB resist until about turn 30, SU 20-30 and China due to my help. The motorized infantry i send to bother through Asia is always hunted sometimes with 5 or more ships (sometimes they did it before but not so hard and fast). When i won the two times before i used to take Teheran, now is impossible; when i atack it, in the next turn aliens start coming without pause (always). The main battles in China i remember are with about 12-20 alien ships and acceptable reinforcements; now is continue attacks followed by armies of 20 ships, 20 more and (i am not sure if resisted so much) 20 more. At about turn 35 i am defeated despite i killed about 30-40 ships. I just can say i am having very bad luck or i have been so much lucky before, that is why i asked if difficult is increased due to some antifarming trigger or something. I also tried to wait some turns extra to attack China thinking that the main difference between after and now was speed (it does not work either, it was worse).
Thanks for answering though.
