I've started a game with Yugoslavia in 1936, with the goal of making it a Balkan superpower, conquering its neighbors, Greece, Bulgaria, Romania and Hungary.
Phase One - Preparations
January 1936 - May 1939
The first thing I did was reorganize my army into 6 corps, two defending my border with Italy and Hungary, two defending border with Greece and Bulgaria, which I perceived as the greatest threat. One corps was left as a strategic reserve, and one as a mobile force, with best units and commanders, intended do be used as my main striking force.
I immediately started recruiting new troops, mostly infantry with some armored and motorized brigades.
My first priority at this point was to improve the industrial capacity and economy. I've established several trade deals, mostly with Italy, Germany, Romania and Turkey. Soon the supplies started to pile up.
I've taken the steps to approach the Axis powers, Germany and Italy,and started to convince my people that the Bulgaria is our greatest enemy. In the meantime I made an alliance with Turkey. Greece allied with Romania.
In June 1937 I joined the Axis, which secured my western border with Italy, and allowed me to concentrate my forces in other areas, mostly along Hungarian and Bulgarian borders.
Early morning on 1st of May 1939 I started to mobilize my forces. As if I had known that later that day Germany will invade Poland. Eight days later Soviet Union declared war on Germany.
The world war has begun.
