Erm...what are the requirements for WW1 armistice between France and Germany? Decided to try out Deutsche Reiches today and...that was WAAAY too quick.

I barely broke into Paris and send some cavalry south counting on YOLO SWAG DISASTER but apparently it was more than enough to force Frenchmen to surrender. That's not good :(

Anyway, this time boys will be home before Christmas. Even earlier, they'll help packing presents :happy:

You sir, are a bad man. See how you'd do, standing along other French guys in da trench, probably rising white flag as first. All the disrespectful people laughing at France should be turned into pumpkin pie.

Aside of jokes, it's not that. Events have soo bad triggers, it mostly depends on Paris and only Paris. Long time ago I played as France and won against Germany in a year, merely crossing the Rhine... :(

DH Devs, what's the case? If you need some WW I events, like proper armistices, peace offers (mild-soft-harsh conditions one event peace treaty isn't most satysfying) just tell, even I would be able to make it work. Yeah, it's thing for whole other thread methinks, but since DH Devs are already cooperating with dem modders, why don't you just ask us about eventmaking? It always keeps me wondering. We could make all that stuff work while you'd have your fun with engine etc. Just sayin'.

As far as I know the surrender event only fires if you manage to take Paris before the end of 1914, which - to be fair - is a pretty exceptional showing for the German side and one that might mean serious trouble on the Eastern Front. I agree that it should only be a percentage chance, but I guess it could have happened.

Well, the AI is so poor. The French didn't have a terribly good strategic plan, but they wouldn't have fallen for the move in that picture (Which is probably the product of many things, from German doctrines to the fact that provinces are represented in the way they are.)

Whaaaa?! It was me and my strategic abilities themselves who brought dem Frenchmen down! Beware!

Nah, seriously. Some triggers to that stuff and it can work nicely actually. It's not bad for AI vs AI war probably. I only decided to break into Paris, that's it and that's all what it took to win. Eventada, that DH's Eventada, it needs serious changes...

Need a hand, DH devs? I always keep wondering why these guys just won't ask us to make all the events. It'd be much quicker.

October 13 1940. Fastest AI Bitter Peace I've ever seen.

I had no role in the Eastern Front besides being, well, besides being Italy as little as possible :D
Been a very surprising game. War started May 1939, Paris had fallen by September. German advance took me completely by surprise so I missed a lot of good opportunities for land when the Blitz took it under my nose. I joined the Axis after Paris had fallen and I closed the Mediterranean in a few weeks. Barbarossa began in March 1940 I think, and as you can see it was quickly over. A few days after Germans took Moscow (again, completely taking me by surprise) I hastily declared war on Vichy France and took what I could before the Germans rolled in. I had planned to take all of the Free Zone but time was not my friend this time around.

After BP I conquered Turkey, and Germany is in Congo and Pakistan. It's over a year until Pearl Harbor so we have plenty of time to build up. I plan to attack Canada and USA at some point.

Showing the forthcoming rescue of "the free city of Zagreb", as well as the nearby construction of my uber defensible "national redoubt". I try to have fun with renaming of divisions and corps to my liking, though I don't know if my meager German has served me well in this case.

This happened without any intervention or cheats at all. I've never seen this before and it blew my mind. I wasn't even at war with USA when it happened but I declared war to take advantage of it right before this screenshot was taken so the battle log states that I was fighting against them. They also had all the Pacific Ocean islands that USA had on a one on one.
