    Style of play Switzerland CG -36

    This is Gameplay AAR with one strange exception. Some crazy history that I invented. I wrote it here, because thos was also meant to be story AAR and some of my actions and slider moves are done for story.
    ----------------------------------------------------------

    Legions of Damned

    Albert Mayer was rolling stairs down in his home. His head and ribs hurt, but Rommel was not a nice man. As his head hit the bottom he heard voice. Voice that he recognised too well.
    -Are you still whining ass hole?
    He looked up in faces of Hitler which were smiling little.
    -I can’t do it. Aldert said.
    -Fuck about what you can’t do. You just do it and do it now.
    -But our democ….. Talk ended as SS troops started to kick him all around his body.
    Opening his eyes after beating Albert looked as SS troops dragged his wife and two children outside. Hitler continued.
    -You sign our deal with either with your own blood or with your family’s blood. You shall not fail.
    Alberd looked paper that he had not seen before beating on floor next to him and started to read. It said.

    “I Albert Mayer shall swear loyalty to Germany and Germany alone. I Albert shall start immediately military training of special force’s. I Albert swear that Switcherland shall always send troops where Hitler asks. I swear that we produce soldiers of elite skills for glory of Germany

    ----------------------------------
    Albert Mayer”

    He looked that paper and remembered his family. Choice was life of Switcherland or his family. He quickly signet the paper and fate of his armies.
    Hitler was smiling as he looked at Albert.
    -Don’t forget our deal ever. When world is mine you shall see your family again.
    There was many German’s laughing around him.

    And so once so neutral land started to focus it’s armies to superiority of warfare. New training camp’s were build for blackmailed deal. So was the creating on most formidable troops ever. The Legions of Damned.
    ---------------------------------------------------------

    I have launched rogue politican manualy because I got that millitary demonstration so there is the all cheats in this game.

    I don’t have any research or production pics from early year, but they are quite easy to remember with base IC 16 country. Build 4 factory to get second research team. Done at 1.1.1939.

    At april 1936 there was election, two authorian move and military alliance with germany. Relations +80 chance of success 51%.

    My slider moves are story based so standing army in years 1936-1940. It chance to Hawk lobby 1941 because of factory building need.

    My research is concentrated in land doctrines in early years because I can’t get them from Germany. Germany never gives me anything. Before war in franch I manage to buy –36 and –39 basic infantry and research better mountaineer in middle of war.

    Switzerland has most cheapest infantry I have ever met, but man power truly sucks.
    Albert Mayer gives –10% organization(bad) and –25% infantry and militia building(good)
    With two other minister I have –35% infantry building. Infantry cost –1.2 from land techs currently at game. I want to see how cheap I get them when I have more more hawk lobby and small arms assembly line.


    Because this was so called puppet country of germany I have influenced it with every chance I have. Ransoms you see. There is only 3 spies in switzerland and not much money income for spying. So it’s not big set back.

    Next chapters tell you about war in Franch.

    I choose in start of War three provinces that i try to conquer. They are surrounded with red. They are all highly defencive and there is not much defence in them(except that maginot line got lots currently)


    I never get that nice mountain province from South, but after French moves troops out from Maginot line there is huge assault against two remaining divisions. After attack is success I send one fast division to conquer it. The AI is greatest steler ever and you notice that Germany is also trying to run there.


    From There I continue to next Maginot line Province. My dream is that Germany would dare to attack Franch from my soil.


    More in next chapter(working and trying same time update these as fast as I can thats why there may be even more typos today)

    I try to take even last Maginot line province, but i’m kicked out from there because I forgot to attack synchronized. Well that could also be disastrous if I would be slower than French


    Germany tried once attack from maginot line, but was kicked out from Franch. Then it’s coming from Benelux and I try to outrun them with little success.


    But luckily they give me that mountain province. It’s not much, but Switzerland is now holding only highly defensive provinces.

    Little after that there was Vichy French. I felt that I didn’t get what I deserved. So I DoW vichy and attack, once again trying to outrun German panzers. I forgot to tell you earlier, but allies bombed my IC strait to hell. IC max was 7 at worst and I lost long research as my second team was wiped out.


    After few hard Battles Axis win Vichy. And here Switzerland now.


    Pic about research, production and deals with germany next chapter and my future plans.

    I didn’t have much resources, but took something out of Vichy so now I can buy stuff from Germany.


    In research I concentrate in land doctrines and air doctrines and planes. there is so little man power so I have to try to make planes.


    In production I try to get third research team by building factories. With this huge man power there is not much else to do.


    Now the Germany has DoW soviets. So I will have to attack them even that there is nothing to gain myself. If stupid AI once again loses that war, there isn’t much hope for Switzerland even when it’s highly defensible. I don’t know which one I continue next, but I think it’s germany. Too many small country games in row with small processor. Takes eons to play one to end, but I hope you will hear about this later. This is just one way to make big Switzerland. After(if) Soviets fall there will be assault against Spain with airborne divisions.

    Those borders are sort of awkward looking... but it's ok, seeing as how it's Switzerland!

    I always liked the suisse, but I usually stick to the Neutral policies, and do nothing but build factories, and rip other nations out of good precious money....too bad money is worthless in HOI2 vanilla
