I hope you both know whomever is Axis, will lose very quick.  End of 1941, 1st quarter 1942.

Next game try adjusting the USSR and USA to -25PP's or -50PP's. It helps make the game more interesting for the Axis.

When you start the game and are picking countries to control choose to make the USA and Russia hard(-25%) or very hard(-50% PP's).
It would be nice if these were sliders so you had more choices. Better yet it would be cool if you could set them and then events in the game could change them. Then you could have the USA gradually build up their PP production over time, sort of like War Economy does only with a little more control.

I've already decreased initial level of PP in NY.
It will increase with time or until USA enetrs the war.

That will go a long way towards balancing things out.
What about having sliders for biasing the game instead of just a few fixed choices?
