I aspire to , but I realize this is going to be a lot of work, so... to be honest, I can't promise anything, although it'd be really, really cool if something came of it. Maybe it'll just be subtitles and no spoken words at all. We'll see .

Oh, and it'll be in Norwegian, with subtitles. That's what I feel the most comfortable doing, it'll fit the Norwegian faction better, and my accent can be a bit tricky to understand anyhow.

Just a few words of advice. (mind you I am most experienced as Germany in this game)

Nukes stink, V-2s stink. don't waste IC on them.

Engineers in your units rule for river crossing.

Do not attack fortifications directly.

Planes suck at night, watch the time of day.

Put mech infantry with panzers for support while keeping speed.

Paratroopers are OP, ok severely OP. Exploit it or not.

Finally and most important.
Encircle. I cannot stress this enough. Pull a Stalingrad, encircle and destroy. Breakthroughs are king. Break the line, then funnel all you can into it.

If done right, they will pull units from other sections of the front, allowing you a chance at more breakthroughs. I folded up the Russian line like an accordion, with a breakthrough in the south, and a delayed attack in the north.

I have other advice for diplomacy, and spy usage, but do not want a tl;dr post.
