Manpower is the biggest issue for me right now even with extensive conscription.Ĭlick to expand.I got pretty disappointed last night when, after 3 tries, I've decided it's impossible to prevent civil war in Spain at the beginning of the game. Even if I take all their land, sometimes their Navy is still in the fight and giving me trouble at sea since the country isn't officially defeated.

So I can't utilize the full manpower pool of conquered territories, and I have to deal with those pesky resistance fighters sabotaging my infrastructure. Conquered territories aren't "officially" mine since there has been no peace conference yet. What's frustrating is that all my little wars with individual countries become folded into the larger world war since they end up joining the axis, so even if I achieve my initial objective, the war still isn't over until I defeat the rest of the Axis. I end up having foreign forces fighting each other on my land in a war I'm not involved in. The US is cool with me so far but I have Soviet units on my land helping me out, and US forces come to attack them. I don't want to have to deal with the Allies as well so I am staying out of the Comintern vs Allies war.

My tanks were rolling over other Latin American countries up to that point since they mostly had infantry with no anti-tank capabilities.Īnd for some weird reason, the Soviets are fighting the western Allies, so there's a weird free for all of Allies vs Axis vs Comintern. Part of the reason why Venezuela was so hard was that I had to fight against a few German units that were killing my tanks. Democratic Brazil ended up being on the same side of Nazi Germany lol. Since I am already at war with the axis, everytime I start a small war with another country, they end up joining the Axis regardless of political leanings. I invaded Peru, which turned out to be fascist, which in turn joined the Axis and now the Axis powers (which also includes Nationalist Spain) are all at war against me. But my plans got fucked up because in my game the diplomatic alliances are kind of a mess. So I try to come up with my own goals and then see if I can meet them.Ĭlick to expand.Yep, my idea was that the Axis would throw their forces against the Soviets with the US too occupied then I would come in while they are too occupied with the Soviets. And for some countries, world domination isn't a viable strategy. It's kind of interesting, because it's not like Civilization where you have "victory conditions". At that point Germany was getting beat up so I had to give up my hopes for the America's and go take the UK, which was relatively easy once I conquered Ireland. But those damn Venezuelans kept me at bay for nearly 3 years. Then I decided to go into Venezuela, partially for their oil but also so I could take the British/French provinces that have a ton of aluminum right there. The biggest difference was that instead of invading Canada first, I went for Cuba to get their chromium. I went back and finished the second fascist game I had but didn't go as well. But we ended the wars, and I ended with the highest score as well as finishing my initial goal when I started the game, which was to completely conquer the America's.

I was hoping I'd have time to research the 1940 fighter, build a decent mod of it, and get it produced in large numbers prewar, but I don't know if that's in the cards.Click to expand.Ah no. I just had too many land unit priorities to give fighters the attention they needed, so that will absolutely hurt me once I hit Germany. I will turn 2 other LARM's to MARM and 1 LARM to SP-MArt for a 3MARM, 4MOT, 2SP-MArt Right now its LARMX3, MARMX1, SP-MArtx1, Motx4. My armored forces are SLOWLY transitioning from light tanks to medium tanks and SP-MArt. So far in Poland, those units were kicking ass pretty quick. My motorized units(all 2) now have SP-MArt backing them up. I also got rid of the shitty NKVD divisions and replaced them with proper line infantry. I have added Engineers to my infantry, something I consider essential to any infantry army. I'm going to switch to 7/2 once I have 1000 or so artillery guns in reserve. My infantry is currently 8 infantry battalions and 1 line artillery. Debating if I want to start justifying a war with Germany or if I want to gobble up neighbors first(Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Greece, Finland, Afghanistan-for closer access to India, and Sinkiang) However, France just broke into civil war between the fascists and democrats, so I'm guessing Germany won't be as screwed by my move as you'd think. Send lots of plane and small arms to Republican Spain, China and Communist China. Won the Spanish Civil War by sending 5 armored divisions in 36.
