applied theory
South america, is usually banned in all MP games due to its heavy negative impact on US, and the fact that no nation at this time could stage an invation of these nations, it is simply not doable, realistically speaking.
But yes it will mess with the allies heavily.
The 'dangerous' positions that germany can hold in SU is a bit varied due to tactics, but usually I find this one the best...
Find 20 infra provinvces and oocupy them with a small force, make sure that he can only attack from his own 20 infra provinces, thus any attack done will be known weeks in advance and you can strat redeploy forces into the area , and voila, a deathtrap..
a bad defense, is where you hold 34+ infra provinces against 20 infra, you will be attacked within days from the 20 provinces, and cannot retaliate, as any counter attack will take a month to get there.
As for western defense, it is vital that you have tanks in the area as germany, if you do, then you can easily squash inf-heavy armies with the tactics of securing their landing beaches, but if they have massive armour formations, you will not be able to outspeed them, and you will be cut off.
So far two theories apply to Axis power, the UK variant, is where you hit UK very hard, and strip them completly, then hit SU later on, this reduces a western landing heavily, and gives you breathing room.....
Second option, is the prepared attack on SU, ofen early, like 39-40, where the allies are unprepared and you will gain atleast a year, but any western invasion will cost you the war if they anticipated this.
As for Romania eating...
SU takes 10 dissent for nations and gets hardly anything from them, but Axis can answer this provocation in several ways..
Either...let them have it..enjoy US being out of the war even longer and more SU consumer goods...or..take a country..lithuania or something, ie spending the US WE you gained to get more power early on, thus penalizing the SU move, basically any agressive SU move gives you options and you will not loose the initiative, unless he declares on Poland, in which case your will have to do the same.
