You forgot Washington - paint the white house butter yellow this time???

No one did -the Brits had something odd in 1688, but it doesn't count very much
- and no one will dare.Horrible weather, horrible food... No, thanks. This side of the Channel, some miles south, is better.
WIELKOPOLSKA - Phase 2 - The Capture of Berlin
October 9, 1939 - 8:00 - Potsdam:
Upon arrival in Potsdam 1 hour earlier, Armia Suwalki is immediately attacked by a 3 sided German counterattack. Fortunately, the Germans are severely depleted but it still takes 21 hours to fight them off. The decisive moment comes when Armia Pomorze and Armia Lodz arrive in Stralsund which distracts German efforts to retake Potsdam and re-focuses their attention on Stralsund.
October 10, 1939 - 7:00 - Berlin:
Unfortunately, Armias Pomorze and Lodz are too exhausted to hold off the German counterattack in Stralsund and they're forced back into Stettin. I'll need to move quickly if I want to capture Berlin so at dawn I send all forces in Küstrin to assault the German capital city.
Street fighting in Berlin
October 10-12 1939 - Update on developments during the Battle for Berlin:
During the battle in Berlin, several notable developments occurred:
October 10, 1939 - 18:00
The Germans launch a surprise attack on Vienna which is guarded by my Mountain Korp. I immediately launch a flanking attack on Linz and after a 14 hour battle, Vienna is safe and the Germans in Linz are defeated. Both battles are aided by the fact that all German troops outside of surrounded Berlin are out of supply.
October 10, 1939 - 20:00
With the arrival of 1. Korp Kawaleria in Dresden, I have consolidated all 6 of my cavalry divisions (both 1. Korp Kawaleria and 2. Korp Kawalera). I send 2. Korp Kawalera ahead into Schweinfurt to begin what I hope will be new encirclement.
October 12, 1939 - 0:00
My IC base has grown to 60 IC which opens a 4th tech slot. I assign Stefan Banach to research Improved Decryption Devices.
October 12, 1939 - 9:00 - Berlin is Conquered:
Right after dawn, lead elements of POLSKA 1 enter Berlin and plant the Polish flag atop the Reichstag.
October 13, 1939 - 0:00 - Assessment:
6 weeks into the campaign against Germany, I've made significant progress.
I'm concerned, however, with my nearly depleted manpower reserves. I'll want to wrap up the campaign against Germany as quickly as I can...particularly with winter approaching.

Horray for Poland! Berlin is conquered!
If only those French divisions in Alsace would do anything... but don't blame France, blame the AI wich is scripted for that.
At least it allows Poland to grab more lands.

I love how Britain managed that. Only for them does a regime change brought about by a foreign army not count as invasion.

Good work !
It is nice to see Germany reduced to four teams and similar IC as well.
Historically it was the Berlin's http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siegess%C3%A4ule where the Polish flags were attached (2nd May 1945) while the Brandenburian Gate was decorated after the fighting was over.
Of course in this reality you don't have such problems and there are no Soviets to remove the Polish flags from the gate - originally Stalin decided the victory will not be shared with anyone.
Polish flag flying oiver the Reichstag - you know, when I was a kid, I've dreamed of doing something like this.
Good job, good job!
And now... go and wipe out the Wehrmacht before you start losing divisions due to lack of manpower reserves.

The manpower situation is going to cause me some nightmares. Let's hope that the Germans get starved with the coming of Winter and the fall of Berlin.
I haven't. My (present) beloved is from Reading, Berkshire . I have some kind of infatuation for the Anglogirls, you could tell.

and look the one who took it in 1066 his descendants still hold the throne!
if you take london no one will take it from you xD
looking even deeper in the past the romans for example simply entered britania and some time later there was uprising as sole resistance
later the anglo saxons took britain only because romans left it earlier

Berlin is captured and I feel that Germans will cede much of their territory to you. I have discovered a plan of turning Brandenburg Gate into a Polish border checkpoint - just look:

Maybe you should have left Berlin encircled and take advantage of the lack of supplies in the rest of Germany - it would be quicker, I guess.
