My Turkey Game

[incognitus]

So far I've had a fair bit of fun, but the faction mechanics are a bit of a pain. I don't like to not get ownership of conquered territories only because said nation is part of some faction... but there is nothing I can do about that for now, I'm afraid.

Anyway, this is as far as I've come by 22 March 1940... what do you think, what should I go for next? I did let the game run for a few weeks without interfering from this point and what happened next was Saudi Arabia and that south-Chinese Clique joining Axis...

nice
u should try to take Persia, no ?
(before Persia join 1 of 3 alliances)

i am surprised Saudi Arabia joined Axis, i never seen it, its pretty rare (usually its more often with Allies they go)...

but already nice expansion, its cool (y)

My biggest targets left are Nationalist China, Brazil, Argentina, Saudia Arabia and Persia... not sure what order I should tackle them in.

Saudi Arabia has a high neutrality percentage and in a normal game will drift towards the Axis. If the threat of a country gets high enough though, usually England or the Soviet Union, it will join the Axis. The reason is simple it’s already drifting towards the Axis and both are neighboring countries which will increase the impact of the threat even more. So with Turkey annexing most of the region and being a neighbor of SA, it’s kinda normal they join the Axis.

Turkey isn't a neighbour though, is it? Saudi Arabia is surrounded by Allies... maybe for background: WW2 started when England attacked Italy (which at that point was almost entirely conquered by me with ONE province left in Somalia), ever since Japan has been overrunning the Pacific Islands and Indochina, Germany has taken France and the Netherlands (allied nation, THEY declared war on Germany along with the Brits), after they were done with France Germany declared war on Luxemburg and Belgium. They have also conquered the channel islands, but nothing in GB yet.

It's interesting to see that the allies attack Germany/Axis, even if Germany hasn't done anything wrong.

I´ve seen some weird stuff but I think your world map is the weirdest world map I´ve ever seen. The US conquered the UK while Switzerland (Canada or even a weird coloured Japan?) owns France, the low lands, most of Germany, North and West Africa, Indochina, a big chunk of China and Japan? What the hell happened in your game?

Oh, nonono... I coloured the faction-owned territories in all the same colour for simplicity. All allies are US-blue, als Comintern are Soviet-red and all Axis are Nazi-brown... Only idependet nations keep their standard colours. Should have said that ^^
