Any way to set up a game where Germany allies with the USSR?


I’d like to play as the democratic US in a world where Hitler and Stalin do the unholy alliance but there doesn't appear any way to set that up in the game rules. Is there a mod somewhere that does that?

I did that without a mod.

Start an non-ironman game, either start in 1939 or play whoever you want until the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. Open the console, type TAG GER to switch to Germany and pick the focus "alliance with the USSR" (this requires both Germany and the USSR to be at peace). Wait until the Soviet accept. Once it's done, type TAG USA in the console to switch to the US.

You're in for a challenge. That D-Day speech from Eisenhower had never sounded more epic than in that game.

Yes I need that badly, and that was my thinking too Telenil. Could making playing the good guys way way more fun and a good challenge hopefully. Dunno how wonky the ai will become with those two allied however.

In that time, the AI will change all your setup. Better change back to USA without unpausing.

There really should be a setting to turn that on under AI behavior. Makes for an interesting game. Playing as the US I have tag shifted occasionally to Germany to guide her on the path to an alliance to the Soviets. In early 1939 I could finally force the German-Soviet alliance.

I like that Scandinavian, Benelux and the USA are imminently invited into the Allies in response. Staying Democratic but also going down the communist path far enough to take Accumulated wealth tax and desegregated armed forces I have been building up the US and since the formation of the Berlin Moscow axis, I have been sending forces to bolster the allies. Figure I can keep Denmark in the war considering the narrow peninsular of Jutland.

In it now may 1940. Germany Has just completed the Danzig or War focus but not yet gone to war, the Soviets have attacked Romania and Italy have attacked Yugoslavia.

The Allies –and the US - are still neutral. Should be fun.

In case anyone is interested here is a saved game just after the Berlin Moscow axis is formed. A fun scenario to play as the United States. You will still have more than a year to plan the entry into the war.

Almost tempted to make an AAR

A fun scenario to play as the United States. I find it quite challenging. Impressed with Soviet AI behavior as the Soviet army shows up in force supporting Germany. Warmly recommend as an interesting US game.
