Problems with Ai in the Demo not shipping units to France?

[unmerged(140791)]

Hi i just downloaded the demo of Hearts of iron 3. I am having some porblems with the AI. I am playing as United Kingdom I gave the AI order to move in to London which it did.

Were i am having problems is sending my units into France (Cherbourg). The AI needed some things i like ships which i gave it command of the Home Fleet and Transport Fleet etc. It still does'nt do it, I thought i needed a transit treaty with France which i done so still no luck.

So does that mean i have to transport the units into France Mannually.

Waiting for your help. Thanks

you send them to France as an expiditonary force.

Hi King I wanted to Control the units in France my self.

Then you have to ship and control them manually. Your theatres will not operate inside the areas controlled by allied ones. Simply it gets too confusing for the AI if you ahev two AIs trying to cover the same ground.

Does this mean that if, as the US, you invade France Britain will seek to attach it's units to your theatre as expeditionary forces (and, for that matter, vice-versa if you invade as GB)?

That would be marvelous and quite historical if so.

Yeh, if you give the AI an enemy province over seas from the theatre to attack it will think about invading it. Depending on your stance and the theatre assets depends on how keen it will be to try it.

tanks a lot for clarifying this king. i've been wondering for a long time how the AI will handle (joint) naval invasions
i hope the execution is as promising as it sounds right now but i will probably know that this weekend
