The Soviets are still mucking about in the Baltics (despite having also reached Greece) so are still some way from Berlin. It would take an incredibly cockup for the Allies not to take Berlin, I mean the AI would have to have been coded by complete idiots... Oh. Oh dear.That is a relief. They want to be thoroughly drunk by the time they are arrested by whichever power takes Berlin. If it’s the Soviets, they’d be better off joining Hitler in his Fuhrerdammerung. Because although they may be insignificant in the greater scheme of things, the Soviets just don’t miss details like that. Especially under Stalin. They have so much prior experience doing it to their own people. If it’s the Allies, they’d have an outside chance of slipping away, unrecognised. Or recognised and ignored until years later when a Nazi-hunter or documentary maker discovers and catches up with them.
Entirely the correct response.One would ask, if there was the faintest chance of receiving any sensible answer. Given that chance is virtually zero, we’ll just chuckle and move on.
Stefan is so desperate for attention he volunteered to update the League of Nations Big Book of Pointless Events. All the League's pointless post is now diverted to his office instead of Geneva.Why are all these minor nations constantly ringing up Slovakia to tell them about random domestic occurrences? Did someone at some point get their wires crossed or did they all agree to kick the underdog of underdogs just to feel superior about something?
In fairness the ITU was one of the bodies of the League that did a good job.It's Twitter before Twitter
It could soon be quite crowded in the Deposed Minor Axis Power Bunker.Turka, the end must beclose for Finland too, see you in Berlin!!!
I suspect the more senior Nazis survive, the less people will be bothered about the small fry. Most of the Slovak regime weren't actually that bad by the standards of inter-war dictatorships (Tuka, Mach, Stefan T and a few others absolutely were that bad, Tiso was clearly guilty of many things but in a Pierre Laval like manner). Regardless any trial would definitely be one of the 'B list' additional trials after the main ones, a final subtle dig at the Tiso regime and it's delusions of independence.It's much more efficient for all the fascists to be in one place. Hopefully they'll all take each other out before we have ti waste bullets on them. Then again, slovakia being involved might mean the suicide pact gets effed and we actually take Hitler and everyone else alive.
Where would we even begin with their trials?
I do wonder if T&T are attempting to have "lockdown parties" too...
Surely there are limits to even insane memoris. Being the best minor Axis power is still a stretch (OK you beat Italy, Romania, the Japanese puppets and probably Hungary. But better than Finland?) but best in the whole axis. When you have Tiso as Supreme Vodca?But if they all survive the war they can write and publish their insane memoirs and make out that actually Slovakia was the best country in the axis and it was all Hitler's fault.
Locked in a bunker with a lethal enemy outside and supplies running low. How would they tell the difference from a normal day in Berlin?I do wonder if T&T are attempting to have "lockdown parties" too...
The ignorance defence, a plan that has never worked. It would be the T&T solution.They haven't unlocked germ theory yet so no need
Peru has been defeated and Ecuador now has control over the Maranon River Basin. And the rest of Peru.
Despite the best efforts of the combined Allied AIs not to beat Peru they have finally succeeded. The government in Ecuador have the good sense not to join the increasingly crowded Deposed Minor Axis Power Bunker and so the war in South America is over.
Steiner and his Luftwaffe Storm Militia at least go down fighting, unlike most of the German forces in the West who can no longer reinforce due to lack of manpower.
One suspects that perhaps the writing of this AAR has been taken over by a Slovakian government functionary with little to do, and even less brain capacity to do it with. Which is it, then, has Peru been defeated or has Ecuador surrendered? Or is this all a grandiose and hopefully not social-realist meta-commentary on the futility of war?
Peru has been defeated and Ecuador now has control over the Maranon River Basin. And the rest of Peru. The German General Staff do not believe that the redeployment of the vast US air fleet that had been ineptly bombing Peru will make any difference to the war in Europe. Because German is so comprehensively doomed that things cannot practically get any worse.
"Army Detachment Steiner is not coming to rescue Berlin." Von Killinger said. "He is dying heroically for the Führer in the Baltic instead."
It's been a minute since I last was tracking this, but which South American nation did what? I'm getting conflicting messages here...
This is what happens if I try to write at faster than real time; mistakes creep in and have to be spotted by observant readers. I will learn from this and never try to risk such break neck speed again.One suspects that perhaps the writing of this AAR has been taken over by a Slovakian government functionary with little to do, and even less brain capacity to do it with.

Shine on you crazy diamonds.Ecuador took on the whole world for no apparent reason and almost held out until the end. Gotta give credit to those crazy bastards.
Fegelein has been found. He is an unused general sitting in the reserve pool, as Germany has a lot more Generals than Divisions at this point. This is probably a big part of why Germany is losing the war.With Steiner out of the picture we now must find Fegelein.
I am delighted Steiner's Cameo was appreciated in the correct manner.Das war ein Befehl!!!!!!!

But now as delighted as I am by your new signature, which marks you out as a gentleman of taste and sophistication.

I suspect it was a deliberate error: just put in for long enough to get us talking about an event in a country which, in game terms, is even more irrelevant than Slovakia! And no doubt run by zombies and dead statesmen with misspelt names anyway. And they lasted slightly longer than Slovakia too before beginning their exile. Will they be having bunker parties with T&T soon?Edited: To correct a frankly piddling Ecuador/Peru confusion. Yet some people carped on about it so it had to be fixed.
He is indeed, so I suppose it is appropriate he wasn't given a division so he is free to hang around the FuhrerBunker and carry our more hijinks.
It is still appreciated.Given that I've been an avid follower for almost a decade, and an active evangelist for almost half that, it seemed only appropriate.
Revisionists - *Spit*.They've already got a case for best minor axis power (because all the other countries will never admit to being minor powers or former nazi allies) and for best in the whole axis, they won't just have the alt-right on their side but also r-word 'historians'.
Seems a tad extreme and alarmingly close to hard work. Besides I am already lauded for comedic brilliance - 2019 Comedy AAR of the Year - so I shall stick to my current methods.Just do what I do, promise you're finally starting writing updates again and then become violently ill. Only release the inane prattle of a med-addled mind. Be lauded for 'comedic' brilliance. Rinse and repeat. It's worked amazingly well for the past three years.
The unique flaws of the Ecuadorian government have been discussed as you no doubt knew - Ecuador!I suspect it was a deliberate error: just put in for long enough to get us talking about an event in a country which, in game terms, is even more irrelevant than Slovakia! And no doubt run by zombies and dead statesmen with misspelt names anyway. And they lasted slightly longer than Slovakia too before beginning their exile.

I thought I had been clear on it as well, no government-in-exile for Ecuador as they have decided better prisoners in Peru than trapped in the unwanted guest annex of the Fuhrer Bunker (a wise move in my view).I believe he was quite clear that space for Ecuadorian officials is not needed as they bowed, or otherwise bent their bodies in a supplicant manner, towards their continental partners, the Peruvians.
