i have the 1.01 patch and Bolts mod installed. i set the diffulculty to hard, ai to aggressive fow on played as Switzerland in the 36-48 scenerio. sat back to watch the action. France and her allies dow germany in 38. germany conquered poland france and turned her attention toward russia. russia and republican spain allied. germany, italy, japan, romania, bulgaria and a few others formed an alliance. i let the game run into june of 43. the us eventually joined the allies. now, dates are not really important here, who joined who and so on. what i think is important is germany's total lack of a u-boat service. there was not 1 u-boat to be seen anywhere, except the few that were in port. germany's total attention was on russia. they had not even 1 army division in france. so, i guess my question is is this a bug, something to do with bolts mod. or a role of the dice. and what i mean by that is if i were to start over would the german ai choose a different path to war. still love this game..........

Interesting! Russia and Spain as allies? Not entirely Impossible... I think the AI Balances threats; whichever Country is more dangerous, the ai will concentrate on. :D

The lack of armed forces beyond bombers in England usually is the Allies weakness, and so the German AI doesn't bother bout them - why guard France, when there's not much to fear (except a sadly possible trans-Atlantic invasion)

In one of my games, Russia and Rep. Spain also allied. When Russia invaded Finland in 1940, Spain also sent troops to Finland to aide Russia. It was pretty interesting.

Maybe they are no longer democratic as a result of a coup? Or the manual is wrong; as democratic USA I had the option to join the Axis on the diplo menu.

They'll never let you join though.
