UK Turn One Recommendations

Purchase one carrier, one transport, one infantry.

Your turn one move will be somewhat dependant on what Germany has left you, but usually you won’t have much of a fleet to work with and will begin the process of rebuilding.

Depending on where the German Mediterranean fleet is located and what it constitutes, try to attack it with your sub (assuming the sub is still alive), fighters (which could land in Gibraltar), and bomber.

You will want to move your transport over to help defend the newly built carrier.

If the Russians took Finland/Norway on turn one, then bridge across a couple of infantry.

Based on what Germany did in Africa, make a decision whether to move your Syrian infantry into Egypt or towards India for additional defense. It will most likely serve you best in India, allowing you to hold on to that “jewel in the crown” of the British Empire a little bit longer.
