Converting Savegames from EU3 / to Hoi3

[Mooncabbage]

I don't really see that it's necessary to have a "historical" converter option. If you want a historical scenario I don't think it's that hard to set up. I think the converter is more for people who want to deviate from history, to see what might have been. And to those who say it would be boring to play such a long game, where you might have taken over the world by the end of EU3, I would suggest that you are forgetting how difficult it can be to achieve much of anything with a minor or non european power, especially on higher difficulty levels. Sometimes it's fun to play one of the small HRE factions, to see what you can achieve.

I would also suggest that in time, it might be possible to play from EU: Rome, thru a new CK, EU3, Vic2, HoI3 and possibly beyond. Remember also that each game takes a different approach to history, gameplay wise. EU3 is very little like HoI3.

It's possible to play the Grand Slam now - but it takes some work to do it...

I've played a few games; CK->EUII->Ricky->HoI2DD, but at each juncture, it's best to have a little bit of 'free hand' to adjust the holdings. In an easy situation, you can simply f12 'neville' your way to a 'close enough' map; in a more difficult draw, you need to be able to get into the data file and adjust...

But gracious! Can't the gameplay loving folk at PI do it the right way? Once?
