So was Sucker Punch in its entirely an April Fool's joke?
I don't know if I can trust Germany anymore!

I will only say "Nice try!"Wait, people actually fell for it? I thought everyone was just playing it extremely straight.
I posted it first thing when I got up so that it would still be April 1st in Americas, Europe and Africa.That's what happens when you are at least 12 hours ahead of most of the world... the dates sometimes don't quite match up and it doesn't click!
That's actually the excuse that I was expectingI'll admit, I fell for it. To be fair, "so crazy it could work" sums up most of your plans in this AAR so far.
Such a vision... You are forgivenI fell for it too...
The prospect of a Germania in Brooklyn blinded me...
He was doing an April fool joke to the Fuehrer.Mouaf? Germans laugh Hahaha - that man must be a foreign spy! Seize him!
Not a joke at all, it will just take some time / updates to develop... and I still have to play the next days ingame. You may have noticed that the PanzerArmee is being redeployed to Athens.So was Sucker Punch in its entirely an April Fool's joke?

"I wish they had told us" ? Told what?A lone Italian boat with a crew of 7 bob in water off the shores of Newfoundland.
"Voluto che ci aveva detto"
I can't make fascistics with only 2 games (not completed) with this mod.Huh. Does Japan always underwhelm?
They still have more than 2000 convoys after having inherited France. The rations are still copious.As for the UK - time for even tighter rations, I guess. Let's see them try to prepare an Overlord now .
If they don't receive oil from trade, they will still get enough oil from Siberia for the first 8 hours of a day. This will definitively hamper their ability to launch deep and threatening offensives, but this won't impact their infantry which will still be able to grind the German forces. On the other end, it should be easier for me now to refuse combats that I don't want to be dragged in. Also, I don't know how this will affects the VVS in the air after 8-10am; the oil shortage situation is entirely new for me, I have never seen it for my "enemies" in any game....It's been a while, but can they do anything if they have no oil? Doesn't that not affect infantry?
Thank you Col, it is always nice having a new reader. Since this AAR is intended as a tutorial as well, I hope that you found some useful knowledge here.G'day Lucifer!
With the release of Hoi4 coming up soon, I decided to dust off DH and have a game to prepare me! Having little experience with DH (I played a lot of HoI2, and little or no HoI3) I decided to read an AAR or two to get a handle on things amd stumbled across this epic. It has taken me a week (on and off) of reading to catch up, but here I am
Just wanted to say thank you for all the work you've done on this AAR, I really appreciate it. And good luck moving forward.
Sorry it was a poor joke saying that though it was just a dream some how these poor Italians had managed to try to invade on their own.
That's for sure, unless the Soviets start piling INFs up as if they wanted to build a human wall. Anyway, winter is coming and I am done with any other thought of encirclements in 1941. I hope that this campaign will be decided in 42.Their motorized and armored divisions will be really slow without oil, that's for sure. It'll make encircling more easier for you
If i'm not mistaken, Lucifer will at least get Albert Speer beginning in '42/43, and Herr Speer has some awesome bonuses to industrial capacity and resource extraction, unless WiF2 nerfed the bonuses. So there is one bright shining hope for the future.Are there not some really bad events that happen to the Germans in '42?
Bad news + Germany in the same sentence after the beginning of Barbarossa in WiF2, that's almost a pleonasmAre there not some really bad events that happen to the Germans in '42?
You may be correct regarding Speer, but to be honest I have not played a DH campaign except this one for so long that I barely remember what I can specifically expect.If i'm not mistaken, Lucifer will at least get Albert Speer beginning in '42/43, and Herr Speer has some awesome bonuses to industrial capacity and resource extraction, unless WiF2 nerfed the bonuses. So there is one bright shining hope for the future.
Milconning Italy is likely the turn-around in Africa that Germany needs to distract the Allies for at least up to '43, while Luci works the USSR into it's grave I am eternally optimistic of your chances.
