You just have to hope that Hitler and Tojo (or whoever is running Japan in TTL) get bored and DoW Uncle Joe.
But I bet the Americans would like it!I can confirm that the Soviet Union would really like to not be at war with the Germans and the Japanese at the same time.
This particular iteration of the US is clearly loving it.But I bet the Americans would like it!
I am sure Turkey could find it most interesting tooBut I bet the Americans would like it!
Yes, though in this TL they have (inexplicably) not yet joined the Comintern!I am sure Turkey could find it most interesting too
This is where your AI brings in an even larger fleet, having used Halsey as bait. They strike the Japanese fleet as their CAGs are off after Halsey. Four Japanese fleet carriers sunk. A New Midway. <wakes up to see Halsey now commanding scrap metal fleet> Oh well, the dream was nice while it lasted.
Very funny. Also the Japanese Fleet has four "Fleet" Carriers and two Escort Carriers. So...Halsey is kind of in trouble.
Interesting. With the amount of AARs you've read, it must make things just that little bit more fun, to have these recurring characters you can root against in these countless alternate universes. May I enquire why these particular Generals or admirals curry such disfavour with you? Do you have some characters you consistently root for?I don't know if anyone else does this, but there are certain generals and admirals in the HoI series of games I take a positive delight in seeing (in my own games) or reading (in AARs) when they get trounced. Halsey and (especially) King probably top the list. So whilst I have some sympathy for @Eurasia here, I must admit part of me is also quite happy seeing Halsey get caught.
Well, with Admiral King it is quite simple: irl I believe the man is responsible for tens of thousands of needless Allied deaths and dozens of merchant ships. This one gets quite extreme - in my last game as the USA in HoI4 I assigned Admiral King in charge of a small Carribean fleet of a half-dozen Clemson class destroyers for the entire war, just because I want the guy (even in electronic form) to be sent to Coventry, as it were, for all eternity.Interesting.
