Germany still has many problems though, that's my point. It's kind of like Great Britain in OTL. A massive colonial empire, that's teetering on the edge. With the added weight of trying to keep a hold on all its European puppets, while having a hostile regime directly across its border. When the game says that Mittelafrika and AllGemOst employ many German soldiers (How much exactly I'm unsure) you have manpower problems as well unless you have conscription, and that's a whole 'nother can of worms. The U.S.A, once it or either the Union State or C.S.A win the Civil War, can probably harness the full value of American industry and than some.
My point being, Germany is not some unstoppable force that can withstand all these problems. I really like the new domestic events that actually reflect this. Even if Germany having the option to completely heal its economy after a year or two, I forget when specifically, to still be kind of ridiculous. The Great Depression OTL hurt the U.S.A and the world for over a decade. Germany is going to take more than a year or two to solve its economic problems, especially if war comes to their borders.
Yes, the Entente really needs more love. The new events that give National France cores if it has Southern France is nice. I'm asking genuine questions now, but I'm unsure how I'm supposed to invade UoB as Canada. Just make a bunch of '36 or '41 transports with escorts and invade the tip of Britain, or what? The actual invasion is always a problem I have when I have the urge to try Canada.
Ooh, speaking of Canada, if you continue to occupy New England when the Civil War occurs instead of giving it independence, are there events that can make New England provinces cores after a while (Say 2-3 years, more maybe)? I'm unsure, as it never occurs for me, and it sounds like a cool idea. That'd be a big boon for Canada players.
yes I saw a screenshot of a cored new england by the dev's a while back
