North Mexico is good, its Axis and its only real threat at the beginning is South Mexico, if you get Texas as your ally you're practically unstoppable.
Best nation for Pacific Map
What is the best nation for the 50p Pacific map?
Is it better to pick an inland province, a coastal province, or an island? Also which have the best extra resource production, in your opinion? What are good policies when playing that country?

I've been going for Central China lately. Best doctrine, plenty of neighbors for early expansion, no coast to protect until a couple days in. Resources are just OK though
I was playing Korea in one just now. I found I had easily adequate food, rare, steel and goods, but precious little oil. For a very naval-dominated round which also requires large numbers of aeroplanes and sometimes tanks/mechanised, this was restrictive and governed much of my strategy.jubjub bird wrote:

Then again, it only has one long border on day 1, with South Manchukuo, and it takes hours for any Japanese troops to land, but as a peninsular it allows expansion. I took Japan, Communist China, most of Khabarovsk and S. Manchukuo, and many AIs by day 4; I quite liked playing it.
The real problem is oil, though.

Likewise, Central China's limited resource is oil. Solution, don't build tanks
The good thing about Pan-Asian is you don't have to. That said I make heavy use of armoured cars or light tanks when I can afford the oil. Asian tacs aren't very good.jubjub bird wrote:
