Seriously, wtf just happened?

[Wulfburk]

Playing as the United Kingdom, Iron man.

It was early 1941 and Germany had taken france, belgium, netherlands, poland and denmark. Italy had lost all of its african possessions, and britain and japan were fighting in Siam, with the british (me) winning. THen the soviet union invades Finland, and finland gets invited to the allies....by someone, NOT ME. I didnt get in the war but most allies did get in the war against the Soviet Union. Finland loses, and when it loses a Peace conference happens, result?

EVERY SINGLE ALLIED NATION BUT UK AND BRITISH RAJ, AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND MAKE A CEASE FIRE WITH THE AXIS AND COMMINTERN, CANADA GETS INDEPENDENCE AND ENTER AXIS. VICHY FRANCE TAKES OVER ALL FRENCH POSSESSIONS AND THAT IS HALF OF AFRICA THAT I SECURED. A NORTH SEA EMPIRE WITH GREENLAND AND **** TAKES OVER WHAT WAS FREE NORWAY TOO. AND EVEN SOUTH AFRICA HAS BECOME APARTHEID SOUTH AFRICA AND MADE WAR AT ME


I DIDNT EVEN HAD THE CHANCE TO SAY ANYTHING AT THE PEACE CONFERENCE IT WAS JUST A SUDDEN EVENT WTF IS THIS ****



edit: and it was when i was really loving my campaign and was actually thinking it was at least just as cool as HOI 3. I just had a really awesome battle of britain where i lost 1300 planes and germany 2000.

Turn on AI historical ideas. Otherwise the AI randomly picks ideas and you get this.

That is the thing, I DID. And the game went on like it should until this point. Italy against Albania, Germany -austria-czech-poland-denmark-belgium-netherlands-france. Japan against China. Soviet Union taking half of poland the the baltic states, then last finland, etc etc.

This wasnt related to that. It was related to the peace conference. Canada and South Africa for example became Italian puppets, with italy losing the war against me and basically Italy giving no threat to Canada and South Africa. I had even destroyed their whole surface navy.

It is nothing about AI focus or not. Allied nations shouldn't get a peace conference at all in this case. In my play as Italy, the war pretty much started when Albania decided not to be part of the glorious Italian Empire and France guaranteed the independence of Albania without me noticing. And Albania fell in a couple of days by just marching in. If it is the same condition as the OP for triggering peace condition, I should already be getting it and somehow be able to carve up the Allied....

I dont know if it is, for example when Poland alone lost the war continued like it should, and the same for other continental europe countries. But when Finland lost to the soviets the peace conference happened with both axis and soviets.

In my game as Japan, the SU are also at war against the allies. I think through Finland as well. I did nothing to provoke it.
Historical AI as well.

I think Paradox might need to revise its war system. It seems to me that, unless it's scripted, the game treats wars as single conflicts. I think the biggest problem is that nations join a pact AFTER they've been attacked.

Maybe France guaranteed Finland got them in the Allies? However then Finland and the Soviet war should only end when the UK is defeated as faction leader.
