    Allies, especially UK, better at attacking Western Europe in the most recent GCD iteration.

    As one who grew up playing all the WWII board game variations, attacks by the USA on South America made sense only when playing for a PU-driven game--especially if game time was limited.

    I respectfully suggest that in this great game of GCD, the USA is wasting time attacking South America in the early rounds and is making the Axis powers (Germany) de facto winners. Can the game be tuned for the USA to ignore South America all together?

    Thank you.

    Good Points

    An interesting mix of units Conflict all over the map

    Bad Points

    Randomized start can be confusing The lack of capitals results in a lack of focus for humans and AI

    Thank you for the replies.

    I will download and install the new version of 1941 GCD and test straight away.

    I recognize that the AI struggles as units (and additional variables of complexity, such as additional PUs) are increased (in my case, exponentially). However, without USA intervention, the Axis conquers Western and Eastern Europe too easily--even on this elegantly detailed map.

    I am no software developer, so I may be naive regarding how the AI may be tweaked to be more aggressive. Personally, I would much prefer to play against an AI whose motto is, "it is a good day to die", over "defend the homeland".

    Thank you for listening.
