Blue = America (which controls the entire world)

With the United States annexing the entire world. I started out taking out Spain, Central America, South America, the Caribbean, and the eastern half of the Middle East. The other major powers at the time were busy fighting each other (UK, France, China, USSR vs Germany, Italy, Japan) to intervene in my conquest of all of the third-world countries. I then built up the cities in my newly annexed territories as advanced industrial cities, and I built an advanced transportation system connecting my territories, so I could virtually transport troops from North America to South America in only a couple of turns, and likewise transport between territories in other continents.

I then invaded the Soviet Union, which at the time wasn't allied with The British, French, Chinese, or any other country (they were fighting the Axis on their own). With the USSR already losing on the western front, and me attacking them with several advanced tank divisions from the south (the Middle East), I quickly divided the USSR and cut off their supply lines. I then conquered both the eastern half of the USSR and the western half of the USSR before Germany could.

I then annexed Mongolia and Tuva. I was amassing forces on all of my borders and preparing for war. I then launched an attack against the United Kingdom by using ships to escort tank transports and invaded the UK and Ireland. I did the same to New Zealand at the same time. While also invading China from former Mongolia, British India from the Middle East, the western Middle East, and Africa. I attempted to invade Australia the same way I invaded the UK and New Zealand, but the Australian fleet held me back long enough for a large multinational fleet to arrive and aid Australia in defeating my landing party and escort ships. I also declared war on and annexed Portugal.

In the east I had spread my forces too thin and China was beginning to take some of my Soviet territories. I quickly launched a counter-offensive from my Middle Eastern cities, which I had set to building advanced tanks. And eventually managed to bring China down.

After making short work of the Allies, I annexed Finland. Then the Axis declared war on me. I then launched a two-way assault against Germany, attacking from what used to be Russia and what used to be Spain, where I had been amassing troops since early on in the game. I then blitzkrieged straight to Berlin, and killed the heart of the beast that is Germany. With Berlin gone, I finished mopping up the remaining German and Italian territories. I decided to declare war on Sweden, but their massive navy was defeating my navy. And I threw my largest fleet at them too. So I signed a peace treaty with them, in which I forced them to cede the one territory I had taken from them already, and to join an alliance with me. This is the first and only alliance I had in the entire game.

I then pushed the remaining Nazis out of Norway and Sweden, and focused my attention towards finishing off Australia and Japan. I moved in and island hopped to get to Japan, their fleet proved to be some challenge, but I eventually brought my naval forces over from Hawaii and Europe, and annexed Japan. Simultaneously while taking down Japan, I had managed to breach through Australia's naval blockade, and at that point I annexed them. When it was only me and Sweden left, I canceled my alliance with Sweden and declared war on them, and conquered them. And that's how World War II should have ended in real life.

From a tatical aspect america controling the whole world after WW2 is impossiable, first off, when the germans were knocked back, and the americans went Rouge, they would have quickly been cut off of supply, and the British, french, Russian, and what was left of the german armys would have more than likely created pockets of american soldiers who were doomed to death. America needed to ship supplys accrost the atlanic, and with the french liberated, and british at war. It would be a hopeless case, Also note the russian equipment in terms of AFVs were (atleast in my opinion) better than the american's (well, other than maby the pershing, and super pershing)

Also the american industry probably could not keep up with losses. and the american people would start to loose hope in thier government, and upriseings would more than likely start, due to the government going rouge. (no longer a democracy) Also, Normandy was hard enough, if the americans tryed a trans atlanic landing, it would be a decisive defeat.

The strategic value of post war europe was also low, with most Industry bombed to dust, the infastructure in ruins. They wouldnt gain all too much.

Plus the purge no longer had as large of a effect on the red army, the russians wouldnt fall like in Barbarossa.

I'm not quite so sure...I suspect it would have gotten partway into the city and then got stuck in some rubble. Not mentioning the fact that it would have taken it about four days to actually reach the city crawling along at about 12-7mph. There's a reason it was preserved as a dire warning to future students of the School of Tank Technology. :03::haha:
