Use of guerrilla tactics (landing a unit and sending it inland to attack defenseless cities) will be devastating to the German advance into Russia. As for Germany, sending targeted and planned attacks against its western shores will divert economic funding away from the Soviets, giving them more breathing room.

If you choose to invade Japan, a good starting point is Sapporo, due to its proximity to your Alaskan forces and its two naval ports. Generally, creating a few destroyers at the New York port in the first few turns should be enough to wipe out the German subs, where you can then send your fleet to Africa and the Mediterranean or Britain to bombard the Axis' naval forces. Keeping the west coast and islands secure will be an ongoing task until your allies overwhelm the Japanese land forces in Asia. The Japanese threat is more severe, for if they manage to wipe out your naval forces and coastal defenses, the AI will send landing craft to your shore.
