Sweden is still alive only because they stayed neutral, and because at this point I don't need their resources. I guess I could conquer them just for the manpower, but there are bigger fish to blow up.

And some people still have the, ahem, audacity to make a thread about how far from a simulation HOI 3 is :D

These images easily answer that question. As for me guess I´ll have to wait 2 expansions and several months to buy this game. It´s too pythonesque for me.

HOI3 can be a WW2 game, or it can be a simulation. Most of it depends on how the player plays the game, how closely they stick to history. And it also requires the player to have a strong understanding of the game mechanics, such as change owner and change controller functions. This allows the player to funnel territory to another nation who would have claim on that territory in real life. I've had many games that were 95% historical, but luckily much of that is due to the ICE mod.

Boy, am I glad to have made the 'GiveBackTerritory' decisions ;) (Then again, it wouldn't solve all the mess on that picture, only some of it...)

What do you mean by give back territory decisions Slan? Is that some part of the HPP project?

Yep. I also released as a stand-alone minimod though a while back (but not sure it worked alright back then...) It basically makes it possible to give provinces that are not your cores but a cores of one of your friends to them through a decision. (The conditions are rather complex though, and different for democracies and non-democracies. But basically being allied or in the same faction will make it possible.) It is still kinda generic, so it only works with cores, not any province.

Something is better than nothing. I recently bought HOI2 during the summer sale and I have to say the 'demand territory' option is greatly lacking in HOI3. Its far better than always having to go to war to get a few provinces, even if it does cost a little bit of money (can't remember off hand how much). I think it is relatively historically accurate to be able to have the option. One main example is the carving up of Yugoslavia and Greece. Bulgaria, Hungary, and Italy all benefited greatly by Germany giving them the territory they considered rightly theirs.

I was playing 2.03.

Then I installed DiDay's mod over that game folder.

Must have freaked out the save game. If i loaded the save game file with 2.03 it would show the correct figures, i think.

DiDay's mod does that to save files. Causes some really strange side effects to saved files if they're not created on the version of ICE that they're being ran on.
