I tried to get my forces out to help defend France as the Soviets arrived. Spain gets a couple more turns to build its forces, but you don’t want to wait until France is conquered to jump in the ring. Spain and France have similar strategies in Europe. It really helps to thin out the enemy armor in combination with a couple of tank generals. I like using at least two rocket artillery generals for their splash damage. The massed heavy and stacked medium tanks are the real threat. Poland also sends a lot of commandos at you, but tank generals absolutely annihilate infantry, even commandos. You are better served to save up and build at least a couple of stacked heavy tanks and a couple of stacked rocket artillery for generals so you can put a lot of firepower on the wave of tanks headed for you. You have to let the Soviets come to you because if you try to rush at them, they will overwhelm you before you can get enough firepower out to reinforce your starting units and the one or two generals you send off in the first few turns. One thing to remember is that because Germany is neutral and you start out on the defense, you will likely be fighting without forward bases for reinforcements for a while after you shift to the attack. Of course, you also have to march all the way across Asia. The reason I think Spain felt a bit easier is that you get a little more time to build your forces before the Soviets arrive at the doorstep, and you don’t have to defend territory in the east. I am guessing Britain has a similar feel to it. France has to weather a tough attack from China early in Vietnam but gets a little time to build an army in Europe before Soviet tanks come sweeping through Germany. I did it in 43 turns, but only because I’ve got everything maxed out. Don’t bother with South Korea unless you have max tech and all star generals. I’ve done 1950 conquests with France, Spain and South Korea.
