Major Powers and Sides
The game is played with the British Empire (consisting of the United Kingdom, Canada, British Raj, Australia, South Africa and numerous territories and colonies), France, China, USSR and the United States of America forming the Allies and Germany, Italy and Japan forming the Axis. China is divided into Chinese nationalists and Chinese communists. Each major power can be played by one player; in practice two or more major powers on the same side are usually played by each player. If there is more than one player on the Allied side, the Chinese communists are controlled by the USSR player.

The gray and wintry sides of many glens,
And did but half remember human words,
In converse with the mountains, moors, and fens.”
