>>1405586
Your sea control would be shit, and russia is potatoe against an early push by all of europe. Not to mention the u.s. would lose the pacific if against japan AND aussies, china and Britain. I personally would choose the u.s., germany and japan. Instantly win the pacific and force russia away from germany.

Youd need an early pacific presence to be effective.

The other two are relatively informed points but Stalin had a crippled and withered arm. Also Mosley was in a plane crash in WW1 that his leg never quite got over. Mussolini was apparently a pretty active man all his life, the trouble would be he'd find some excuse to leave when you actually need him.

In my game the year is 1964 and Persia still stands alone against the entire world (literally, even USSR got converted -twice- and is now the Russian Empire breathing down my neck with their infinite manpower, but they are still no match) HoI4 is babby level.
That said UK, USA, USSR.
>>1405586
The reason why I chose that is because partly because of what you said, and to expand, because germany would easily take all of europe without having to worry and dedicate resources and maintaining a military presence to the east, essentially turning europe into an instant fortress under 100% of the german military. The USSR could now focus on its asian front, easily sweeping across like a knife through butter due to the manpower, industrial output, and massive technological superiority over all of mainland asia. America, not having to focus on mainland europe, could focus on tag teaming Japan along with the USSR, and could easily outbuild the UK with its navy, considering that much of the UK is equipped with outdated vessels, and considering the US vast edge in industrial output. ANZAC is ultimately a pushover without UK support, India would gladly turn their coats to my side when in return they are promised to be freed of the british rule, africa is ultimately irrelevant in terms of military power or industry, etc. etc.
And most importantly, my allies would control most of the world's oil industry, all of it if we take arabia too, which should too, be a pushover.

What's great about it anyway? Rube goldberg semi-auto rifles? Shit oversized tanks? Jet planes with no range that got picked up by P-51 like flies? Rocket interceptors that have 2 confirmed kills to over 30 losses(mostly through crashes)? "Strategic bombers" that fried themselves just because?

>>1408440
I originally chose Germany not for the technology, but rather for an easy control over europe, without the USSR (or if you chose Germany instead,) having to waste an incredibly large amount of manpower and resources to fight each other over the control of europe, now germany just does its early war blitzkrieg over all of defenseless and incompetent europe, and suddenly an entire continent is subjugated without the ensuing destruction of operation Bagration.
While I agree with you on the German tech meme, since they are now not preoccupied with fighting and diverting resources to the east, maybe they could actually refine some of their research to help their allied war effort against the rest of the world, notably jet technology.

It would if I hadn't been fighting for the last 13 years? It's not like it started in 1964. (Plus before that I was busy with middle east wars and helping the Axis)
And how the fuck would it be easy to hold a line against every single world's nation? For every division I have the US alone has 30 (and again, th US has China, Russia, UK, BRaj, Brazil, France, and Canada, along with almost every other minor, all aiding)
The only reason I am slaughtering them is because it's a shtty unrealistic game, even gsg said I'd be dead if not for broken AI.
And right now I am storming Turkey despite again, outnumbered like hell and having to rely on my own internal RESOURCES (again. Becauee literally everyone is allied).
And despite all this, the AI loses.
>>1409937
And also, the supply issue is because the enemy AI can't:
a) handle supplies
b) handle defensive lines
Basically all I do is send two fucking tank divisions and and the rest just holds while I storm them one inch at a time.
Other than that all they do is suicidal attacks.
No fucking naval invasions, no navies, no enemy fighters, no attemts at nuking or anything that could help at all..
AI is Pre-alpha release tier
To sum it up, it's easy but it should be hard. Fucking disappointed.

USA had the largest navy in the world by far at the end of WWII
>>1410064
The US was producing a new carrier every 6 months. Russia was producing tanks at the same fever pitch. Between the two of them, almost any third ally would be enough to win the war as it dragged out.
I think people are prioritizing military / industrial strength (a vast amount of which especially for the two most commonly picked - USSR and USA - came to fruition much later in the war) when other strategic options hold equal weight.
Priorities for my countries would be:
1 - minimising risk of being overrun before material factors can come into play i.e geographical closeness, complementary material strengths (industry, manpower, army / navy / air)
2 - material strengths
Great tier +:
I don't think a combination exists that could meet these measures
Good tier:
>UK, USSR, & Germany
Similar to USA, USSR, & Germany except without the risk of the UK being overwhelmed like the US might. Losing Australia and Canada is a big blow to the UK, assuredly the rest of their south east asian colonies will follow. However this combination will have naval superiorty in the mediteranean, an even quicker annexation of continental europe with UK power added.
>USA, JAPAN, & UK
Similar to above
OK tier:
>GERMANY, USSR, & USA
The USSR and Germany have a pretty tight stranglehold on Eurasia, Russian units in the east would be more than enough to contain Jap/China at the onset of war, and continental europe would eventually, if not as rapidly as it did in our timeline, fall. The risk I see here is the pre-absurd industrial output USA being at heavy risk, superiority in land air and sea would be years away from achievement, especially now with the british navy and expansive french navy - I'm worried they could be overwhelmed before they could really come into play. And whilst continental europe might fall, USSR and Germany lack the capabilities to take Britain, or to overwhelm the combined sino / japanese troops to the east - now reinforced with the the troops from european colonies and an influx of manpower and material from Western Hemisphere. Likewise overwhelming the combined russian / german might would be an astronomical task. Insane bloodshed

Under zero plausible circumstances is the US going to be overwhelmed by others.
All you need is Mao really. He would just turn their forces against one another, an expert at strategy and psychological warfare. China is going to become the leading power of the world at this point.

Just thought you should know that if he had lived longer or was capable of doing more, Mao could have driven any surrounding nations into conflicts.
The USA's power has always been provoking and resources. Mai's power would be easily pointing out that and turning the people against those who own the most resources in ideological conflict
