      I really like how you mentioned buying artillery or tanks. I see newer players only building infantry (NWO style) which gives Germany way too much freedom.

        @redrum At some point... once you are done all the nations it might be helpful to reorganize them by either; turn order, or faction. Or both.

        EG.

        Germany
        Japan
        Italy

        Russia
        China
        Britain
        United States

        OR

        Germany
        Russia
        Japan
        China
        Britain
        Italy
        United States

          @hepps Yeah, I'm open to re-ordering them to probably turn order. Though if I did that I'd probably add a little field to give a difficulty rating for each. And thanks for the image love.

            I added a bit about watching out for Italian can openers as well.

            @Hepps I reworked some of the image placement and formatting. Open to suggestions.

                          I would consider hiding the detailed descriptoins within spoilers.

                          Good tips on Germany.

                            @crazyg I don't think we currently have anyway to have spoilers on the forum though its a good idea.

                              @redrum I think you forgot logistics for german tech. At least I think logistics is the most important tech at all.

                                @wirkey I added Logistics now though in 2.8 I don't prioritize it nearly as much as in 2.7. Trains tend to make the extra truck movement not as important as before. I also think less experienced players struggle to use trucks effectively so buffing air/land unit stats and getting free materials is better.

                                  @redrum Not only trucks get +1 movements, trains too. And don't forget the scrambling from Carriers. Not that important for Germany/Russia, but it'S huge for the Pacific powers and UK trying to defend beachheads in France/Norway/North Africa

                                    @wirkey I thought +1 train movement was in improved logistics?

                                    And yeah logistics is key for Japan, UK, and USA for carrier scrambling. I have that in the USA tech priorities already.

                                      no, simple logistics. I just tried it

                                        @redrum I have different opinions on many points, but as I always loose against you, I'll better keep them to myself 😄

                                          @wirkey LOL. Well, maybe I'm just a bit lucky 🙂 Though glad to have a discussion around strategy regardless even if its a bit more advanced then what I'm putting in the guide.

                                          It appears you are correct on the trains. That might change my German strategy a bit. Though for this guide I think leaving logistics after the main land/air unit techs is probably best. Its still more of a nice to have and need to understand how to utilize trucks/trains well to take full advantage of the extra movement which most newer players struggle with.

                                            Funny enough, I was going to suggest that logistics was a really important tech, but given that redrum always wins versus me I was quiet
