How to play as UK (Beginer) and embrace and benefit from the British Raj relationship?

[leemonk]

Hi all,

So I had a read of the wiki and it talks about working the relationship between the UK and the British Raj.

How best is this acheived? I have never, until just now, even looked at what I can gain from a puppet state. But I understand that I cannot just ask for manpower and train them but I have to take completed units which then takes them away from the BR.

Thus should I produce and lendlease for them and then take 'some' units?

I want to ensure they are strong enough to put up a tough fight with the Cominturn.

In my current save the Axis have just gone down but the Cominturn is spreading like wildfire. However I did not play historic and the BR were never invaded and now have a decent army. I have around 160 Weapon factories and am pumping out equipment like crazy. I have just sent all of my old equipment over to them thus it will be great to see what they have in a years time.

If it looks like they'll end up bordering Japan it's definitely worth chucking them equipment. They can stalemate forever in that terrain.

Go back and read the 1.3.3 and TfV developer diaries and comments by developers. It will give you a better understanding of what the relationship is and what the owner and puppet can do, and how to manipulate autonomy.
