Declaring war on both Germany AND the Soviet Union at the same time

[Admiral Bloonbeard]

As Britain, should I declare war on both Germany and the Soviet Union? I’m thinking to guarantee Finland and destroy Communism AND Fascism

Well you can just wait for after the war. It messes up India and the USSR will be weakend if Germany win there it is a nightmair to play against 500 divisions. But you can pull it off with early Italy naval fun and ofc several ddays.

If sounds like suicide idea for me, but good luck

If you go that route, the war with Soviets will be a phoney war until you beat the Germans anyway. If you call in India you'll get a small front in the Himalayas, which will likely get completely bogged down due to mountains and low infra. I guess you could send forces to defend Finland, but usually you are already spread very thin in 1940, so it's not really realistic. The USSR might get less lend-lease. In vanilla singleplayer, I doubt it makes a significant difference.
TLDR: It will not change anything.

It gets quite a lot atm and allies are only in EUrope that is why Germany looses so badly atm. Also the Italian army being entirely in Ethopia doesnt help the atlantic Wall.
