Little Entente help??

[Derek XC]

Like the title says I need help with an Little Entente Alliance. I am France I'm able to leave the Allies and get Yugislavia, Romania, and Czechs into my own separate alliance. However I didn't know where to go from here. Who I can attack and when? Any body try this? Read all about the Little Entente on Wikipedia and thought someone had to try a game like this by now. All advice welcome.

So I played a test game. Didn't attack anyone. 1939 came around and Germany still annexed the Czechs. Is there any way to prevent this? Do I have to attack Germany myself before this happens?

I have never done your endeavor and really don't have any answers for you. However I would surmise that there is only one way to stop Germany's aggressive event train. I would think - if Czechoslovakia was in your alliance - you should have taken military control early enough and showed Hitler he won't be getting it for free.

No, don't attack Germany first. Keep your Casus belli . Maybe try GoI on Czechoslovakia to see if that alters the Munich event chain to prevent Germany from just grabbing it. Ideally you want the Munich negotiations to fail, and force Hitler to make a DoW.

My first thought is that you need to attack germany before Munich. The event has exceptions in case CZE is allied to SOV, GER or ENG. You could replace ENG with FRA to meet your demand. Or you could try to join axis instead, but that was not your intention, was it?

Thanks guys. Correct I wanna play a France since historically the Little Entente Alliance was France Yugo, Romania, and Czechoslovakia. Now the alliance was a short one that didn't have much backbone to it, but it's a historical event that many don't know about. Will make for an interesting ahistorical game with historical backgrounds.

Maybe if I load up as Czechoslovakia right before the Munich Event launches I can have an option to fight? I don't remember if the event give u an option or not. I'll have to run another play through tonight and test it out.

event 2200 CZE has 3 options.
a: Accept german demands
b: Join axis, but keep teritories. That way CZE gets a nazigovernment.
c: Refuse demands. This has the effect of leaving any aliance.

This means that all 3 options no way to go for you, they only desribe what happen once france has accepted the german demands for the sudetenland.

This leaves you the 2 options i mentoned earlier: declare war on germany on 1938/9/29 or earlier. Or edit event 2030 GER so that it does not fire when "alliance = { country = CZE country = FRA }". Also i just see that the lines for ENG and SOV are outcomment, thus my earlier statement is faulty. Only CZE being at war with germany or being allid with germany will prevent the event.

The best solution may really be to use option c of event 2200 CZE and reinvite CZE into your alliance.

Instead of loading as CZE i find it more convenient to edit event 2200 CZE. I uploaded a file where the CZE AI will choose to refuse the german demands, also i removed the leave alliance command as this makes no sense if CZE is backed by your france. Just replace your /db/events/czechoslivakia.txt and enjoy.
