I forgot. if you have military access to, say, Switzerland, and you attack a provnice bordering it, could you support attack from there?

I don't know what the design intent is, but I've found that you cannot attack an enemy from a country you have military access with unless that country is also at war with your opponent.
I think he said somewhere else that he was finishing off a book, so no doubt will be back when that particular task is over
Very good progress so far!
I used this as inspiration and attempted something similar, which ended in complete failure: the Germans fought a stalemate with France along the Maginot/Siegfried lines, the British did not intervene in time, and the Yugoslavs (is it Yugoslavs or Yugoslavians?) were quickly overrun along with Italy in approximately a month.

A stalemate on the French-German border shouldn't be too difficult to achieve, because the frontline is quite short. I guess that even if Germany was at war with Poland, its potential would be so big that it would be able to at least stall you for a while and counter-attack after Poland is defeated. However, if the Balkan nations are in your camp, then it's a different story. It's not possible to cover EVERY front and I think that the AI would become confused. Even the player could find it difficult.
Regarding the effects of time - I think that you are correct. Germany has more IC, more MP, more LP, more of everything, which means that time works in their advantage, not yours. If they were threatened by the Soviets, then it would be different, but I doubt that Stalin is ready for his potential conquest of Europe.
Rensslaer, to answer your question correctly:
War started jun 39', ended the next day of this screenshot. Although i had to spend 2 years cleaning balkans from German allies and puppets. It also was on HPP, so it CAN be done

Poland probably had good reason to think the way it did, I suppose. Didn't want Germany to pounce too quickly. It does help us that you were willing to pounce first.
I don't know what the design intent is, but I've found that you cannot attack an enemy from a country you have military access with unless that country is also at war with your opponent.
Thanks Rensslaer, I do also speak English, fortunately! I'm loving your bravery in taking on Germany when they're not even really engaged in any other theatre!
Per l'Italia, devi vincere! In bocca al lupo, Rensslaer.
Oh no, I don't think so. Rensslaer might be accused of being a little over-ambitious when it comes to running multiple concurrent AARs, but he finishes what he starts. It might've been quiet in 'Locarno' for a bit, but unless Renss himself calls it quits, I fully expect it will resume in the future. Now, when that future might come to pass... That is something only Renss knows.

Nice idea for an AAR Rensslaer .
Will you be sending some of the Italian Fleet north to harass the Germans?
More please!
Just read through after having read your others AARs (except for your German one, that's next). I hope it's still going. Great reading, as always!
I hope that it's not dead. Ren's AARs are always so awesome!
Just got into this AAR and now there is war, but than it ends. you are a terrible person for leaving us with such a cliffhanger.
Throughly enjoyable read though, looking forward to more.
Reading or writing?
Anyway, very much enjoying the AAR. Just got back into HoI3 (as Italy, in fact) and very much enjoying the AAR. Looking forward to more!
I just discovered this AAR, I really like it. I hope it's not abandoned (though it likely is)

Loving this AAR...First time commenter but Imperio Novo and Fire Warms are fantastic reads and I am totally hooked here.
WOW, that was some DOW !
the last time you asked Poland for an alliance, i expected you to GOI them when they turned you down. having followed as many of your AARs as i have, i expect you to win ! ! :excl:
