As the Allies I too use the strategy of just trying to disrupt the Axis in the early part of the war, just trying to inflict as much damage as possible. I'm currently playing a 1939 campaign, and this strategy is working real well for me, in-fact it's going better than planned. Since this was my opponents second game I figured I would produce as much french and British infantry as possible, and send everything to the french front while leaving only a corp. or two in England. This was a gamble, because if my english forces in France would have been destroyed England would have been wide open for invasion. I took a lot of causalities but so did he. Luckily, in the process I knocked out his navy, so now I'm doing so good that I have a corp. or two in Germany. I even assaulted Berlin twice, I took Rome, and all in 1940! But after the gains I make he keeps pushing me back, so basically I can't get much further than the Ardennes forest, as those Panzer corps are tough to crack and they keep getting tougher. It's late '41 now and the USSR has just entered the war, so now it's just a matter of time. I find using this strategy is the best method for victory when playing as the Allies, because the USSR and/or the USA should be able to fix any Allied disasters.
