Being a measure of each faction's sphere, your influence is calculated on two separate levels: (1) the Theater and (2) Regional level.
At the start of the game in 1946, the United States holds more overall but wider dispersed worldwide influence. As a consequence, US forces must contain enemy expansion for victory. The Soviet Union, on the other hand, has less influence but a more concentrated starting sphere. Well positioned for expansion, they will look to avoid containment to achieve victory.
Theater Influence
For each theater, your theater influence is the sum of all your faction's regional influences added together. As you expand your sphere, at the end of each Timeline (see Chapter 3.2.2), you will reap the reward in Victory Points (see Chapter 3.2.1) for each theater accordingly:
Regional Influence
| Regional influence is the strength of a faction's sway in a single region. PRESS + HOLD for 2 seconds over a region to gain more information about it. |
