Great Britain AAR - A different World War 2

Alright, let's begin. First off, setting up the game.


First, research which will heavily concentrate on land, air and sea. It's important to get these to an acceptable level as soon as possible, to build strong air and naval force as soon as possible. Will improve industry possibly in early 1940's


Production of new units will be on hold until i gain use of my full wartime IC potential.


Trading to keep a balanced stockpile of everything.


Moving towards standing army and low declaration of war dissent. Slightly away from total democracy and more towards a paternal autocracy. Hopefully as much democratic as possible, and definetly keeping away from the two parasitic children of Carl Marx.

Post #2 Updated.

I'll try to keep posting updates as often as possible, but i wont post every little change i make, unless i think it may affect a lot of the later game. So no research updates, unless it's to inform i need to make a large change on what i research because of something unexpected or whatever.

Also, i'll try to put as much of my military advancement as possible in writing rather than a picture heavy posts. Not sure yet on will i do completely story based posts and/or just explain what i do. Maybe a bit of both, we'll just have to see.

Germany grows.



Yeah, i tweaked this a bit to make AI Germany stronger against Soviets and me.
Also gave northern Ireland to the Irish, let em keep it for all i care, also gave me two divisions of garrison to strengthen the defenses in southern England.

I'm interested too in how you'll do as UK against such a powerful Germany, especially without the US or France helping you.

Shouldn't be overwhelming since, well, you'll see soon.

Annexations and civil disarray

Things finally starting to happen. First, the Germans in a show of diplomatic brillance, brought the nations of Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia and Bulgaria into the reich and gained control of all their resources, industrial might and military assets.



The league of nations did nothing, which in turn caused Mexico, Brazil and Chile to become very belligerent towards their neighbors, unfortunately for Brazil and Mexico, their population rose up in revolt against their governments. Fortunately for Chile, their dissent was not as high enough, and they managed to keep control of their government, but were seriously weakened against their enemies now, and were not able to advance very far.



Then as if that wasnt chaotic enough, the US government declared war on the belligerents, and immediately came to regret it due to bad propaganda when they also fell into anarchy and then civil war. (Funny, the AI seems to cheat here. Every time i add him 100 dissent they get rid of it very quickly, or they manage to beat down the rebels, which no other country can do, because in a fight against their own rebels no country can defeat the rebel divisions' organization, but have to bring down their manpower, which is near impossible for AI it seems.)




More mayhem


The Soviets took all this disarray, and the decline of USA as their cue to launch their own invasions against Poland, Romania, Persia and Scandinavia. Too bad they had non aggression pact with Finland, so they could not attack them.

Pretty soon though, they too came to regret this decision, not because of popular opinion, but because Germany joined the war, first alone, and then as an ally of Poland.

They at first, made a landing at Leningrad, and then through Poland when they became allies. The Romanians managed to keep their borders intact all this time, while the Poles had to give up some land until they managed to rally on the front and when they got their german reinforcements they were able to push the Soviets far into Russia itself.

The Soviet position became even worse, when the French declared war on them, and i'm now able to send my indian forces to attack them through allied Persia.

With the western allies now included in the war, the smaller nations against Soviets became bolder and joined the British led allies. First the Scandinavian nations, then Persia, and finally the Finns and Turks also joined in.

The Soviets were now under extreme pressure to defeat half the world's countries alone. Although the Soviet soldiers were tough fighters, they were hampered by woefully bad equipment and leadership.





Persia was almost taken back, when Neville Chamberlain died. But nothing would save the Soviets now.


I was actually hoping that the Germans and Soviets would bleed each others' MP away in a long drawn out war, but i'll have to think up something else now.

Sorry guys, i've had the norovirus for about a week now, but i'll try to continue as soon as possible.
