Quickly move to secure the Red Strip (One) in north Persia and then let the Iranians capture the territory, so the Soviets cannot use it to reach you. Dealing with the Persians/British Indians is prefereable to the Reds.

My thought, precisely!These coincidences almost make the AI look... smart. The horror!
I have no reserve left, and mitigating the damage only will result in losing the war. Not a pleasant outcome.@Lucifer:
Damn, just damn! But I mean, if you can deploy a sizable force on the southern end of the Alborz Range in a timely manner, I'm pretty sure you can mitigate most of the damage...probably.
I still hope that I will disappoint you, but you clearly have a good idea of what's happening. Thanks for the good wishes though.This could potentially spell disaster for you. During my time playing WIF2 the hard mod, when i had just started playing i came onto this situation right when i was about to conquer the Caucasus completely. Then, those bastard persians gave the soviets that little gap and suddenly my 15 mountaineer divs, all rested and about to push southeast, face off against maybe 40 soviet divs. I was forced to hold off an attack there and ground most of my forces due to the critical fuel situation i had, but after pushing hard against the belly of the beast their IC withered and i salvaged it. You, however, have less men, less ARM/MOT and the AI is a cheating bastard in this mod.
I sincerely hope you make it out of this, though i really like AAR's in which players lose.
Actually, I disagree on this one. I will have to face the Soviets anyway and they will just be stronger on the main front if they don't have to reinforce Caucasus... and I will still face the Persian and Indian forces. Better using the Soviets as a buffer between me and the Commonwealth. Even better, since I think that I am going to lose the Caucasus, I would like the Raj to occupy the Caucasus, depriving the Soviets from its oil, while keeping a buffer of Soviet-controlled province farther in the North.Quickly move to secure the Red Strip (One) in north Persia and then let the Iranians capture the territory, so the Soviets cannot use it to reach you. Dealing with the Persians/British Indians is prefereable to the Reds.
Sure, the Reich has 5 RM in bank...Seems like a good time to try funding some rebels in the Raj.
Sure, I can try and upload all the text files tonight, you will just have to locate what you are looking for.Lucifer could you upload the file that contains AI bonuses from your version? Would love to try it with the newest version. Masochist I am..
Thank you I appreciate it. And great update!Sure, I can try and upload all the text files tonight, you will just have to locate what you are looking for.
Thank you.Agreed. The war is not lost, and we must take what we can to ensure that it will never be lost.
It is actually quite easy (even if time consuming) to write. I look for the Directives on Internet, used them as a template, and directly sprinkled some lines which are relevant to the situation.Agree. And I have to say, the way you imitate Wehrmachtsdeutsch perfectly is quite unsettling...
Mein Furher, I know not of this Musselini fellow, but will follow your orders into Hades itself if needed!
*PS I freaking hate taking Africa, so boring and slow.
"Agree" to this update, and Germany will assume the military control
As promised, here are all the events from this early version of the mod.Thank you I appreciate it. And great update!
So do IAbsolutely agree. I want to see how you manage this sudden change in the fate of the war.
No, that's not really a chore. The real pain is when the Italian air force is overstacking German-controlled air bases, preventing German units from recovering their ORG. Or when I have to reboot the computer (or following a power outage) and Italian divisions stop moving forward to occupy empty provinces in Africa because their ORG is too low, resulting in Italy strategically redeploying better organized units around the empty provinces, repeating the process and having up to 10 units around an empty provinceGreat AAR, and what a brutal mod. I thought my first TRP game was a beating but this.. oh man. Clicked agree, I want to see if you can pull it off, though managing Italy's far flung assets must be a chore in addition to managing that beast of an Eastern Front.
How nice of you! :Mein Furher, I know not of this Musselini fellow, but will follow your orders into Hades itself if needed!
I think (and I stress "think") that I could implement my plan without the help of the Italians, but I want to use them to clean once for all the pockets in Africa before using the "Germano-Italian military conference"Do you really have a choice whether or not you take control of the Italians? It's really your only chance of keeping the Allies out of the Levant, to say nothing of the Soviets.
Please refer to B. in the previous update. That's all you need to know...security stuff you know...Wait, you're invading England?
