This is my first playthrough so please help me out+ give tips
Day 1:
Research:
Infantry-Motor Infantry
AA-Arty
AC-LT
Interceptor
Cruiser
Buildings:
1 Naval Base
1 Air Base
1 Barracks
1 Tank Plant
1 Ordinance Foundry
Also built 2 industry (1 in food city other in metal city)
I joined a coalition with Mexico City and West Texas. Texas seems inactive, didn't even move his troops.
Me and Mexico split S. Mexico. Put Honduras, Yucatan, Panama and Louisiana on Trade Embargo. I made 4 main army groups.
1 sent to New Orleans
1 sent to Panama
2 sent to S. Mexico
Joining Mexico City was a bad Idea because now I have only one way to expand. That way is to fight a level 157 Colombia with god stats. Well he invaded Panama, but I wanted that chokepoint so I invaded too. Sent 2 cruisers and 11 troops. He only got one province after fighting for 6 hours. Well to oppose me in Panama City he has 6 units. I have 11 plus 2 cruisers.
Production:
4 Interceptor
5 Motorized Infantry
5 ACs
2 Cruisers

What you can do is try to get Colombia to join the coalition, By diplomacy. If that does not work then join forces, rally other south american and carribean players against Colombia. Alert them and advise them to start building army. If they don't care then ally with another coalition in America for the time being, so your team can focus on this player without having to worry about an attack from the American states. Ask your coalition members to build and send army stacks to your border with Colombia. Being a pro level player Colombia will only get stronger with time so to destroy him is a must.
Show diplomatic behavior and message Colombia, try to see what his plans are. Also send spies to gather intel on his country. Build a few submarines and send them right next to his border and port cities, he can't see your subs but the sub can see his troops. Keep moving the subs close to his coast, as soon as you see the troops stationed there. Move them to the next province. Since you arnt patroling over his skies, he cant see the subs and wont suspect anyone scouting him.
If you keep this up then you will know well in time, if Colombia is stacking troops to invade you or anyone else.

Thanks will do! Also messaged Venezuela but he was inactive. Will ask Cuba next.

Look carefully to profile of Colombian what he produced until this time
we have no information about it so I will talk about comintern
comintern is very weak at air and anti air units and you will fight for Panama and after this you need to cross south america so you need to have domination at air and sea to protect your convoys
build an airstrip near Panama and protect it with a few buildings put submarines to coast and send tactical bombers as patrol everywhere bomb what you find you can go strategic bombers too colombian cities too close to you
his main units probably cruisers rocket artilleries artilleries infantries light medium tanks
so submarines and tactical bombers will help you a lot

Day 3:
Research:
Motorized Infantry Lv. 2
RRG
Alabama surprise attacked me but I am thrashing him. Killed 10 of his units and will capture Gulfport and Mobile in 2 hours.
Now for the daring part... I attacked Colombia. I know, not that cool, but for a sh!t player like me it was big. Landing troops in Cali, invading from Panama to Medellin.
He is probably inactive so I do not find this game fun. I plan on taking south America in 2 days.

True that. I lost a lot of units so I just want to go somewhere sunny and drink Fanta.

A little bit late but I think it is better to spedn way less resources on research and buildings at the start of the game. Maybe even only AC-LT. Resources are so limited these days that you have to focus on most necessary units so you can at least train a lot of them.

...?!?
Both research slots should be going at all times, else you could never win a 100 player game.
And he should be Uber-researching his fav unit, or best Doctrine unit...

I have no resources and this thread is dead.
