Italy receiving all unoccupied french land when France capitulate. WAD?

[danisv]

Playing as Germany and going historical route I managed to quickly conquer Poland and then going through the Benelux without any major issues. When reaching the french border I called Italy into the war to divert some troops and speed up the capitulation of France. Before Waking the Tiger this normally meant I got all of France except for the Vichy area when I capitulated them. Now when I reach Paris Italy receives all land that I havent been able to occupy regardless if they occupy it or not.

Is this WAD, something that were changed with Cornflakes or a bug that should be reported?

I am playing with historical focuses on and only mods are Coloured Buttons/Air Force

This is a bug, you should report it in the bug forum. This is like the 3rd post saying the same thing

No worries, it's easy to miss in the search. I have been very actively following the posts since Friday so I just remember seeing it reported .

I was just pointing out your not alone.

As a frequent German player in SP, I want to see this fixed

This happens because they have more war contribution than you, probably from casualties incurred suicide-attacking the Alps. The french surrender to the war participant with the highest contribution, it's WAD.
To prevent this, don't invite the Italians into the war until you are ready to make your own push into France.

Guess I have to add this to "Annoying things I can learn to work around" then

Yep, it is probably the new war contribution calculation. It should be rectified when you declare Vichy. But keeping the italians out until you need them for Africa isnt a bad idea. Saves their navy, and the Vichy navy for a grab via Case Anton

But bug report it anyway, it might need balancing. When in doubt report is a good motto after a release.

Samw thing happened to me and ya the Italian army had made no progress in italy but had suffered massive casualties
I don't think loosing the most men should give you war score

Obviously this didn't happen to me...

Played historical Italy and went with Axis path. I join the war basically at the start (was waiting some troops to get in position), on the alps for the first part I didn't push but just conquer all egypt and part of Tunisi. Finished that i decided to push i France mainland because the German were kinda struggling (probably because they had about (12 division on my front): corsica was easy (unguarded), slowly push into savoy while finally the Germans are able to push through Belgium and finally go to Paris.
So France capitulates I get around 40% of warscore until now, conquered all egypt and pushed french and english out from Israel and Syria was half the way for french western north africa and got most provinces of the southern part of France (all the ports and was near to cut them the Maginot line.
France capitulates, vichy is created ok.
At the end i got the english land of Africa and Corsica.

Is it normal ? will i get something more out the final peace conference when we take down the English ?
Because at the end i just got another thing that Italy doesn't need: more ports to guard and no factories.

Quick note: playing on 1.5 historical with just TFV dlc

In my game vichy was not even created I'm not sure if I selected some thing but in Africa it's the free french I think. I'll check it out when I get home

It's definitely a good idea to leave Italy out until France is defeated. You don't want to waste the Italian Navy against the French when you're gonna crush them regardless. The more relative power the Axis has in the Mediterranean later on, the fewer British ships will stand between Great Britain and the Wehrmacht.
