"We humans are foolish in many ways: we want to conquer all as if we had all time, as if our lives did not have any end. Thus, our real time passes too quickly, and often when one believes that they are working only for themselves, they are in fact working for unworthy or ungrateful successors."
- Frederick II. of Prussia, 1739
I don't know, the Mladorossi seem to be just as much of a threat as the Bolsheviks- I suppose that they might be less able to draw on partisan support in Eastern Europe but that might be offset by American industrialists having less qualms about propping them up.I'm sure many German critical historians this timeline will object that the Kaiser launched an incredibly large invasion with thousands of armored vehicles simply to deliver Russia and Japan to America.
They'll never understand what a nascent threat was eliminated by clearing out the Bolsheviks before they rallied their strength.
In medical science, it's called the prevention paradox. The doctors get criticized for excessive preventive measures, which seem not worth the cost, just because the public does not know and cannot understand (because of the success of prevention) how bad the prevented disease is.I'm sure many German critical historians this timeline will object that the Kaiser launched an incredibly large invasion with thousands of armored vehicles simply to deliver Russia and Japan to America.

Looking forward to it!Without major spoilers, after 50th part, next one won't be like historical blog anymore, but story about one German soldier stationed in Berlin, early 30s. Boring guard duty will change into wild dark ride...
Arrgh, forget Stellaris. It only hurts to play and get a glimpse how great a game it could be... but isn't.and me trying to play Stellaris again still didn't allow nice quiet afternoon to write something coherent...
Hey!! I take offense to that, Stellaris is a good game... that is if you ignore the late game lag which makes it unplayableArrgh, forget Stellaris. It only hurts to play and get a glimpse how great a game it could be... but isn't.
Nowadays Paradox is too much profit orientated, so they heap up new content to sell DLCs but are too stingy to apply some costly programmers/enough staff to at least maintain the "AI". While HoI2/DH plus lots of love from modders is a splendid fully working game like they aren't able or willing to make anymore.
