I am playing TFH on the August Storm mod as Yugoslavia starting on Road to War (1st Jan 1936) on "Hard" level.
I CGM the game this time so at game start had zero neutrality and moved the slider on the Axis bar as far as it would. Immediately on game start I sent an "Align to faction" to Axis Germany. I was accepted in to their alliance pretty quickly by Feb/Mar. All good so far.
After building up my force for most of 1936, on 1st October 1936, wanting to open up the border to the Soviets, I invaded Romania. Long winter war of attrition with basically Inf/Art divisions against like for like Romanian OOB.
During my war with them they joined the Axis alliance as well (??!!). But we kept on fighting each other. It's taken me until May 1937 to force a conquer on Romania (I was using the war part to build up unit/General experience points) but upon conquering them all their remaining surviving fleeing units came up with "Romania takes province x" on whatever province they were in on that day. All of Romania is shaded apart from those provinces that had Romanian units on the day conquer was achieved with most of their units almost pushed in to the Black Sea.
We are both in the Axis alliance, yet remain at war with each other. How is this possible?
And to truly conquer them and wipe them out so Romania becomes part of my Yugoslavia do I have to wipe out all their remaining units? I have no problem doing so, could be fun-ish, even with my battle weary low org units pushing but don't want to have to bother if the end result is they remain as a nation in their own right and me as an occupying force.
Any help/advice/enlightenment would be very welcome! I've conquered them fine in the past on 'normal' level of difficulty, it's the first time I've tried on hard level. Is this the reason it's played out like this?
