Jun 30, 2014 · KJF can work, but it’s not as consistent or effective as KGF. This is because all 3 allied countries can apply more pressure to Germany earlier than they can for Japan. This is especially true against good players. Against KJF, the Japan player should purchase mostly subs, fighters, and infantry and seek to keep the navy alive off China.

Dec 5, 2007 · When you do go into KJF mode, it happens suddenly and without warning. Best is if the Japanese fleet is over in SZ 34 since now it is MULTIPLE turns away allowing you to get into a forward position. Unfortunately, in every game I told the opponent ahead of time was KJF, Japan not ONCE, moved out of SZs 60, 52, 45, etc.

May 31, 2008 · If you want KJF done right, you had better remember the secret herbs and spices. I’m gonna ask you a coupla dumbass questions. Then I’m gonna give a lot of smart-ass answers. Tee heez. No, srsly, these comments should help. Maybe. If you dare to think about what I’m writing. Let us SAY that you are playing rock paper scissors.

Jun 26, 2015 · KJF is harder to set up and usually a longer endgame (and a less advantageous one for Allies) than the KGF, though it be extremely satisfying when it works. I think for Allies to really have a prayer at pulling this off, the Russians need to just murder G with their opening! or else Allies need a pretty cleverly deployed and fruitfully ...

Aug 1, 2016 · And if you’re going for a KJF, keep at least 12 of the SFE russians back to threaten Korea/Manchuria while Japan’s dealing with the road, US presence in the Carolines, and Australian/Indian landings in the DEI. Hell, if you’re really committed to a KJF, stack the Russians in Amur on R1 or R2 and dare Japan to hit you. Yeah, you lose 18inf ...

Jul 31, 2010 · Otherwise, if you try to pull out a KJF right from R1 turn it will be almost impossible to pull it off since both G/J will respond and take advantage of it. “Germany is the anvil and Japan is the hammer” - this is why KGF fails consistently against experienced axis players even with the revised edition which clearly favored the allies.

But in 1942 Online KJF is pretty neutered, to the point that it's just *too slow*. All right, so what happens - Japan pushes India, keeps at least one battleship two carriers, call it two battleships two carriers, plus one destroyer, cruiser, and two submarines a turn starting on Japan's second turn (after seeing the US Pacific fleet drop).

May 11, 2020 · So if you want to push KJF, there’s two things to remember for USSR that you don’t need so much in KGF - tanks and bombers. Yes, USSR tanks, you can use against Karelia, it’s a whole thing. But you need infantry/artillery for unit count and to threaten the big strafe - you hit a German territory, deplete its infantry, move your infantry up.

May 2, 2006 · While Kill Japan First (KJF) is not a commonly executed strategy, it still has been known to befuddle folks who have never encountered it. The following is derived from a discussion on how to defeat a common version of the KJF strategy. In this scenario, UK has a factory in India, US is likely to place one in Sinkiang, and to use their bomber against any unguarded trannies in SZ60, landing in ...

Jun 25, 2020 · But anyway I think safest J1 build if you fear KJF press might be only 1 transport or forego added transports on J1 just to make sure to secure the fleet. Sub spam is pretty potent. Sometimes seems better to drop a gang of em at once and close off the lane by threatening attack, and then you also got a fodder cushion.
