LOST IN TIME - The untold story of the Third Reich using HPP

[unmerged(729203)]

After reading, rereading, criticizing, frowning on, yawning on, and laughing at the various AARs this forum has to offer, someone decided stopping being a leech and making his own contribution to the community.

And so was born a story.

Info:
Game: HOI3 For the Motherland
Country: German Third Reich
Start year: 1936
Mod:The absolutely illustrious and most excellent Historical Plausibility Project
Note:I added a little tweak via tech to increase every country's intustrial capacity twice, and added stuff to
rebalance the resource and money production with it. I've run tests and all is pretty smooth.All credit to the creators of HPP, and plz don't be angry?
Difficulty:Normal
Style of writing: find out for yourselves(but don't miss an appointment if you,aginst better judgement, start
reading it)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gameplay house rules:

1)Don't break these rules.
2)DO Not instantly promote talented, low ranking officers to field marshals instantly. Make them excel in
battle as they rise through the ranks.
3)No cheats(except sometimes yesman if the AI does something VERRRRRRY stupid.
4)No save reloading
5)No ragequits
6)No ridiculous actions like invasions of China
7)No AI controlled troops(except perhaps some trivial struggles overseas)

First update coming soon, but I warn you, next may be irregular as my schedule is a bit cramped up and
being the best student in the best school int the worst country of the world is not a task to be undertaken
lightly.

Prologue - Down below!

I was working part-time in a building site in Berlin when I made a great discovery.
An underground room containing what proved to be what countless historians have been claimoring about. The
lost,complete archives of the Reich, stashed there in the last days of the Battle of Berlin.
Countless shelves were filled with cardboard boxes,each containing documents more valueable than their veight in silver. However, one part of the room was blocked off by a heavy iron blast door with three massive keyholes,denying me any chance to enter.A worn plaque read:"Folio on the Treatment of the Enemies of the State". I will relay everything I found, except of course the materials of the most horrible of all crimes of the Nazis, whom I neither can nor would touch.:excl::excl::excl::excl:

No, the Battle of Berlin was an event when alien invaders from Mars took control of Berlin in September 1970. Start reading history,friend!

Box A1 Folio 1

Stenogramm of the Cabinet Meeting, 1st of Januraty 1936, 13:00 pm
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Hess: Now that all of us are here, we can proceed with our planned tasks for today: first, to re-evaluate every cabinet member's work and renew their trems of office for another year. Beginning form the top, Fuhrer Adolf Hitler! Whitch of you find his work in the past year to be satisfactory?

Hitler:(Whispers) Really,Rudolf? For me too?

Everybody raisies their hands.

hess:Great! The Fuhrer shall sustain office for another year.Now, whitch of you find satisfactory the work of your Head of Government, Rudolf Hess?

Hitler:Everyone does for sure.Proceed!

Hess:Now, the Foreign minister...

Hitler:He is fine.Proceed!

Hess:The AARmanent minister, Werner von Blumberg, is rivaled by Hjalmar Schaht, a complete newcomer who promises to increase the nation' s industrial capacity by 10%. To vote!

Hitler:9 for, only himself against. Werner, please leave.

Hess:The Minister of Security, Herr Frick, sure knows how to make people like our party but... still generating lot of one who doesn't. A friend of mine, Gobbels, wants this post. To vote!

Hitler:10 for. Frick, you voted aginst yourself, so you will not be shot. Get out.And Rudolf, don't even start to talk about Canaris or Raeder or my friend Hermann Goering. They are all aporoved.

Hess: So be it.Now, what if we offered Herr Blumberg a job as the Chief of the Army?

(BAM!)
Fritch:Too late. He was just shot for not voting aginst himself.

Hitler:Beck, get out of here. I know you will try to stage a coup in July 20 1944. And your marksman skils are simply terrible - you need 3 bullets to shoot himself! At least that's what the movie said. Replacement - Herr Bayerlein.

Hess:8 for.Approved.

(BAM!)
Hitler:So he needed only 1 bullet to kill himself? What do those Holywood guys tell me? Remember, Do NoT watch that american movie "Valkyrie"!

Hess:Fair enough.Now, Herr Schacht, please brief us on the present situation of the German industry.

Schacht:It is currently at 367 IC Units. Don't really know what they are, but well enough. We are currently building only the KMS Graf von Spee,some destroyers and submarines.

Hitler:Very well.Decisions of IC allocation will be made. Now, Herr Fritsch, report on the army, please.

Fritsch: We currently have 78 brigades of infantry, 24 of horse towed artillery and some meaningless numbers of tanks and motorized infantry. What troubles me the most is that the command structure is just Terrible.Some Corps have 2, others 3 or 4 divisions. This must change.

Hitler: Still, I like your way of briefing me with your data - making pies out of them. Ah,pies, they remind me of Bavaria. Have you got any?

Fritsch:I was unable to prepare them because...

Hitler: Quiet! If Blumberg was still alive, you'd be fired.

Now, Herr Neuarch, how about out foreign policy?

Neuarch:Japan and some of the Chinease warlord cliques - their names are too strange to memorize - are trying to aling with us.Personally, I don't think we need to influance any of the countries of this world. All those who are worthy of the New World Order will stand with us anyway, the rest will perish.

Hitler:Exactly my way of thinking.Now,Schacht, are there any shortages of materials in germany we would need to adress?

Schacht:We currently lack about 100 International Market Units of Rare Materials per day,and of course, 150 IMU of crude oil - that is, if we keep up with the fastest pace of conversion to fuel.

Neuarch:I can adress most of those problems by finding buyers to our domesticly produced coal.

Hitler:Do so, but remember, never speak before I ask a question.

Now,Herr Canaris, I understand building a spy network takes time and resources, so I will not ask for any reports from you right now. and also, I suggest giving Herr canaris full discretion in any matters of intelligance. please be advised to vote FOR.

Hess:10 for.approved.

Hitler:And, for Herr Scacht, will be given full authority over our nation's brightest minds and resources to use for development of new ways of war.To vote! I know already - 10 for.

Hess:9 for.I am against.

Hitler:I;'ll let you live this time - just so you could spend all the time untill the 80s in jail - or at least that should happen according to another American movie.

Hess:What, my Fuhrer? Anyway,Herr Goebells,please brief us on the state of the...

Sorry about the delay, I had written it yesterday but then suddenly power disapppeared and all the work was lost. I did it again today. Feel free to comment and critique - the fact that I am new here doesn't mean I can be spared!

No one will be spared

[Gen. Marshall]

Pretty hilarious indeed, I must say

 

[Latvian]

This is funny. xD

Update coming today at about 19pm.

 

[unmerged(729203)]

As I opened the next box, the box C, I beheld something horrible. The box was almost empty, except for a few dirty shreds of paper in the very bottom. And some dead mice.

Needless to say, there persky animals had destroyed the valueable and important documents the box held, and the plaque on the box said : "BOX C 01.1937 - 12.1938"

Data on two years had been disintegrated.

I believe nothing much of intrest had happened in those years, as the previous boxes covered a shorter period of time. I will continue my narration soon with the next Box, also adding an owerwiew of the situation in early 1939, scrambled from the info in the BOX D.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In real-life terms, what happened was this:

I had to tidy my room, and had chronicled all important events on a single sheet of paper, which I accidently threw avay. I burn all my trash, so it is destroyed irrecoverably. I do not believe I will be able to reonstruct it from screenshots only, so there will be a hole in the story until 1939. The AAR ISN'T DEAD(YET)! Please keep following.

All due and undue respect,

You should've tell us you've done such a leap intentionally!

I've also started the first chapter of an AAR when I got into the war, though I should've started 3 years earlier
