1914-1942? how can i play like this ending the scenario at the half of ww2?:rolleyes:

Thing is though, WWII likely won't happen if you play from 1914 to 1942.

So WW1 it is? :)

Yes. My impression is this may come as a surprise to the makers of DH, but it shouldn't.

I, and loads of people like me, have been waiting for a Paradox game that can properly do justice to WW1. Victoria 1 did not realistically simulate the conflict - the fact that it lacked a move=attack system ensured that it couldn't if nothing else, and I think Victoria 2 is probably the same since King pretty much said that making WW1 realistic was not a priority for him in making it - his priority was to make the 1840's period realistic first. At least judging by the demo I played, AGEOD's WW1 game was dire, mainly due to exceedingly poor execution. Various WW1 mods for HOI1 to 3 have been made, but really a mere mod of a WW2 game cannot change enough to do it properly, and the mods are never finished.

So I guess it would be a good idea if you could tell us in a dev diary what exactly it is that DH does differently that allows it to simulate WW1 with a good degree of accuracy.

This! It is surprising there is no DD about the most awaited, as it seems from the poll, new feature. In fact, its the only new feature from the poll that doesn't have its own DD.

Yes I agree with you Cybvep, only the capitol and some of the bigger cities should be taken for surrender event for the enemy.
But I guess Fernando Torres have done much like in WiF, a game with awesome events!
I hope that we will get a new system, not rigid events. Technically, the Entente never occupied any significant German "VP city" during WWI and yet they won. In WWII the Japanese didn't lose any "VPs" on their homeland and they surrendered after being nuked two times. Will DH be able to represent it?
