If push comes to shove, having Austria on my side means Czecholovakia won't be attacked from the Southwest. But Hungary is now a member of the Axis, which offers Germany another route of invasion. Poland could rein Hungary back, but Poland's northern flank is now gravely threatened. As for the Soviet Union, who knows what it will do ?
All in all, it's a nice and complex situation.
GeneralHannibal said:What of Romania?I don't remember their government, but Romania and Poland had a fairly strong alliance, and all the powers surrounding Hungry have good reasons to fear Hungarian expansionism.
In OTL Yugo and Hungry had accords, but have they happened in ALT.
If I were Romania, I'd be particularly worried seeing as a Hungry that takes Slovokia is one that will take Transylvania. As for Poland, they've always wanted to annex the rest of Lithuania, and war with Germany would let them do that, and they'd have France's consent.
But on the other hand, will Poland take any action, as the Soviets might move in. But I doubt the Czechs fear Hungry, as they have the best army in Central Europe...
Does Germany have cores on Austria? If they don't, you should mod some in there and in the Sudetenland. The population would support them I think.
Atlantic Friend said:Romania was one of the countries I tinkered with, giving it a National-Socialist government. It seemes, though, that the Nazi implant didn't agree with Bucarest, which has rejected it for a more Centrist approach after a short COnservative transition. Now I wonder where Rumania's drifting left will leave it.
No bilateral agreements between the two nations. So far I've been making inroads with Yugoslavia in terms of popularity (+200), but its government refuses any kind of alliance. I guaranteed Yugoslavia in case of either a Hungarian, German or Soviet aggression, but I'm wary about Romania.
Indeed they would have my full consent, for the Baltic States are Fascist or National-Socialist nations, and thus are not protected by my Pax Gallica.
But they have to defeat over 15 German divisions, and probably half a dozen Lithuanian ones to do that. And French forces are on the other side of Germany. Still, that could be done.
SO far POland clearly shows it fears Russia more then the reich - 30 divisions are deployed along its borders with the USSR, versus 10-15 along the German border - and mostly near Eastern Prussia.
I'll have to look for the cores, I'm not sure. If not, Ill mod it for some Austrian/Czech provinces.
GeneralHannibal said:It seems like we are talking totally differently here. I'm talking about things that happened in History (some of which can't be represented) and you're talking about gameplay.
Just saying also, but I imagine that if Poland attacked Lithuania that the USSR would attack Latvia and Estonia...

4th Dimension said:I think Italy was hit by lot of dissent after Mussolinis death, and rebelling was done by game engine, randomly.
GeneralHannibal said:If they take Rome would you have a government switch happen?
