Anyone get any? Because I just caught the war to end all wars.

So, points in my favour:

I'm up to date in all military techs. Bolt-action rifles, dreadnoughts, the works. I'm willing to bet that no other nation on Earth is anywhere close. A few divisions worth of tanks in production too, but it's going to take a while before the industry's there to build them.

I also have a fully cruiser/dreadnought navy (and boy does the upkeep on that hurt), while I'm guessing the AI is still shuttling around a bunch of ironclads and commerce raiders.

Better yet, I've managed to drag India and Japan in with me; the #3 and #4 military powers. Alas, the three of us combined can only just match China by itself, and in terms of sheer manpower it dwarfs us. I have 200 brigades, ish, and another eleven hundred should I choose to mobilise (given the organisational headache that would constitute I'm going to hold off for as long as possible). China, as you can see, has TEN MILLION MEN UNDER ARMS.

That's just unnecessary.

Though naturally I imagine the AI'll peace out in a couple of months. Cowards. :mad: ;)

nice to see the british colonies free, makes things more interesting. So you freed them yourself? It would have been nice if you could see the total amount of casualties like in EU3.

Yeah, I thought I'd run an informal-empire game and see how far I could push the industrialisation of the Home Isles. You have to find some way to make a UK game interesting. :p

This war was a lot of fun (lasted until 7th Dec 1905), so I thought I'd throw together a mini-AAR sometime later today.
 
NGF and Austria on the same side... nah... no way !
And for India, once you have all minor country there, you can release them..

Oh and seems you've been quite soft in military operation before this war.

And there was already a topic about WW

Your WW seems more balanced than mine... all vs France and "small ally" is really unbalanced.
