WW2 didn't happen. Why ?

[Numbshall]

Hello dear people,
I encountered a messy situation, and I don't know how to fix it.
I'm playing as France, I managed to join the Allies, extend Maginot line and built a good navy to deal with the Italians in the Mediterranean (since I think the RN will destroy the Kriegsmarine pretty easily)

Everything is fine. Nationalist Spain won the civil war, Japan invaded China, USSR did the Great Purge etc.
Howewer, when Germany declare war on Poland, instead of joining UK and Allies (like they did IRL) they did... nothing. They just sit down here, waiting for the Germans to enter Warsaw.
Before war broke out, I noticed that UK didn't guarantee them before war, so I wanted to do so, but WT was too lower to guarantee them (wich is weird, because UK's AI always guarantee by 25% WT)

We're November 1939. What should I do ? I can't manually declare war (here again, WT is too lower). Should I use console commands to tag Germany and make them declare war on me ? Or will they do it by themselve ?

(Sorry if my English is kinda... ewwww. Not my maternal language)

You probably should have guaranteed them before the Germans ran Danzig or War. If you don't, the Poles have to ask the UK if they can join the Allies. If AI Britain even accepts, then the UK has to join their war with Germany.

If the AI British are being idiots, this won't happen.

Don't worry, Germany will likely start WWII after it capitulates Poland by declaring on you directly via focus if unnecessary aggression against Denmark and Norway doesn't do it first.

Well, that or the Soviets will start WWII via a Winter War gone wrong.

If you turned off Historical Focuses, once in a while Poland forms its own faction that discourages the UK's AI from intervening with guarantees, but is incapable of standing up to a major country.

Thx all for your response.

That's what I said : WT was too lower, I cannot guaranteed them (It says it needs to be 80% or something)

Historical Focuses are turned on, Poland haven't created any factions

Historical Focuses are turned on,

In that case Germany will inevitably declare war on you shortly.

 

[Bryartuck]

If no one guaranteed Poland, they are on their own. Once they capitulate it should drive WT up enough that you can guarantee Belgium or Netherlands and get the war started when Germany declares on them (and they will). Though you may mot need to as Germany will declare on you soon after them (as soon as the NF finishes).

Are you running mods? I can normally guarantee at 25% WT. You should be sitting at least 25% thanks to the Munich chain.

He is playing France. That might make a difference. I don't know France well but some of their national spirits are fairly restrictive.

The only mods I'm running are :
-Better political map
-Historical flags
-Unique Infantry Equipment

Well, this is what I've got for France in 1936:

Is there a way for Germany to get the Czechs without going over the 25% threshold?

Well, that's weird. Mine say 80%
Maybe I messed up somewhere when I buy the game....

 

[browd]

Or you might be playing with a mod that increases the WT threshold for guarantees. Are you playing with any mods?

It is weird. First thing I would do is a clean install. Something may have been goofed up.
