Alright, I concluded my UoB game.
- After the events described above, I push on through Africa (Germany is still in Mittelafrika after all); it goes very slowly of course because of the bad infra etc.
- After Africa I decide to go for Australia. Firstly I invade New Guinea and Tasmania and start building up some troops there.
- This is when I notice Delhi is making worrying progress against Persia. I don't want them to eventually reach Africa... Time to take them out.
- I ship some armour I just built and also some marines and land on Delhi's only coastal VP. I then immediately race for Delhi and Kabul.
- 12 days after I invade, I annex Delhi. Problem solved.
- The Delhi invasion army is also shipped to Tasmania, and then I invade Australia. It's not very fast going but in the end I conquer the continent and the little islands and annex.
- Next I take out all those annoying little German islands with VP on them. The last one is the Azores actually. The fact that I am able to perform an amphibious assault here unperturbed shows that the Canadian and US navy are not so strong now anymore.
- After I annex Germany, my occupied provinces in Germany are automatically ceded to Prussia. Also, France gets an event allowing me to join their alliance.
- I take Bermuda and start preparing to invade the US. It takes about half a year to assemble all my divisions from around the world, and when I'm done, it has become winter, so I wait another half year. This time I also use to put my now enormous IC to use and build a large infantry force. (the forces I already had were mostly specialists like Mar and Arm)
- For fun, I also nuke Washington and take it by amphibious assault and then leave again. Trololo. I also take other harbors by amphibious assault (and leave again). Actually most of them are undefended... Problem?
- In spring 1947 I finally land in Charleston. Secondary landings are performed at Wilmington and Norolk and flanking maneuvers are immediately performed around divisions that are for some reason in Columbia and Raleigh. Btw landing in the south was done to be able to use my Armoured divisions maneuverability to the most. (More north the Appalachian Mountains would have frustrated them too much)
- Initially, about 90 divisions are landed against ~200 US and Canadian troops. But all the US divisions are for some reason 1936 inf's (Canadians are 1945's though, but there are only 30 of them in total or so) and neither US or Canada have armoured divisions. US has a lot of outdated CAS but about 8 modern Tacs. Luckily, my faithful ally France wages a successful air battle with them, because with only my airforce, it might have become hard.
- After continuous armoured encirclements, and fresh troops shipped in, the balance is about 140 for me to 150 for them or so in the summer.
- After a few more ambitious encirclements, the enemy has like 40 divisions left by the end of the summer. A general, mostly unopposed, advance through the US follows. After I occupy the necessary cities (not all their VP though), Canada gets a surrender event. Yay!
- I occupy all USA's VP, but they still have pesky Balboa. Since KR uses an older Province.csv, Balboa's beach faces the Panama channel. Control of Balboa is necessary to enter the Panama channel, so it is literally impossible to perform an amphibious assault there (might as well not have a beach). At this point I edit Province.csv to the new values, where Balboa's beach faces the gulf of Panama (name? The pacific side).
- Caribbean Federation actually falls first, because they're closer. Anyway, Balboa and the US along with it falls March 2, 1948 and Syndicalism prevails. Huzzah!
All along a very fun game, even with the few glitches. Thanks KR team!
