I have a question about the possible events at 1918 favoring Entente or CP. I started first game ever, just downloaded this last night, as Serbia. I became a puppet to Austria-Hungary and in 1915 Russia DoW on Austria while allied with France, Germany then DoW on France, and both Germans allied. I didn't pay much attention to the French front of the war, but I only ever say one province fall to Germany, actually it was the one closest to Luxembourg, and then they retreated several years later. There never was war with Britain or the Netherlands or Belgium. France and Germany just threw punches on that Alsace line. In 1918 Russia fell to Soviets and Austria took Moldavia and Bessarabia, Romania joined the war in 1916 on Russia's urgency, and Germany got Kiev, Ukraine and Crimea, and the Baltic. Then after that Germany signed a peace with France and gave up the Monarchy and let France take the Rhine. I don't get how they could choose such an option when the war never even made it past the Alsace line. Likewise in Austria, they only ever took one Italian province but gave up the entire empire, becoming Democratic Austrian state that still held all the lands of the Austria-Hungary empire. Why?
Surely they were totally winded in the Russian brawl, Russia took Vienna once and Budapest twice, but was ultimately repelled and Germany was 50 miles from Moscow when the Soviets ended the war. §Just want to add some details to the Russian front: it wasn't a back and forth wall like 1940's. Germany shot up through the Baltic and Pytorgrad, but retardedly wasted eight months outside an empty Moscow while the bulk of the Russian force was diving over the Carpathians and into Austria. There was even an army 25+ of Russians encircled and annihilated outside Prague!Г How could Germany cede so much to France, and release Poland. The peace between Austria-Hungary and France was called the Status Quo, but Austria lost the Monarchy still. A weird bug happened to, in that Serbia being a puppet of Austria still was in a war with France.
Well, I'll try another game as Russia and avoid going into war to see what that's like, this mod is kickbutt. Hail Monarchia!

Doing that Russian game and things are super! 1916 so far and got an alliance with Germany. Hail Nikolas II! Germany has fat 30+ stacks on the French border. Things could get kinky.

I am very worried about my Monarch. I don't want him and his family massacred by evil commies. In the first game as Serbia, it said he was able to flee to the UK. Is it possible to never have the Monarchy destroyed and to continue until the end of the game? I ask that for all monarchies. I read the Bourbon dynasty can be restored in France, but specifically, may they continue until end game? Hohenzollern, Habsburg, Romanov, etc.

It's now October 13th 1919. No terrible wars have occured. I suppose nothing will because I turned off "countries declare war." Two hilarious things have happened. I officially declared no minimum wages payed by the government in 1916 and everyone is calling us fascists, literally. HAHAHHAHA. I never noticed when it happened, but I checked out Britain in 1919 and they have a Russian as head of gov! HAHAHAHAHAA. His name is Aleksander Konolav. I tried looking him up but he isn't popular on Google to show up.
