Realized that the Test Scenario, while good for, you know, testing things, made crap-all sense from a story point of view. Decided to start over with some kind of actual timeline in mind this time.
So yeah, earlier French/Entente victory in WWI thanks to a modified Plan XVII drawn up by Victor Michel. Michel's Plan XVII would've strained Franco-British relations, as it called for the French Army to invade Belgium without permission at the first sign of trouble with Germany (WHEN SCHLIEFFEN PLANS COLLIDE!). With the French invasion, Britain refuses to directly intervene in the war, though they still deliver supplies, and through arm-waving ripples the Ottomans don't get involved either. France, Russia & Serbia versus Germany & Austria-Hungary, basically. Maybe the Italians join in later, since I gave them Dalmatia in this scenario. I dunno. Through the magic of making things happen outside the realm of the game so I don't have to explain it, the French win, take the Saar, Austria-Hungary collapses slightly differently, Danzig has a bit more autonomy, and the Weimar Republic is somehow more stable despite losing even more territory than OTL.
Yeah.
I delayed the Austrian Civil War a bit... IOTL, it occurred in 1934. Here, I replaced the Spanish Civil War events with it. It ends pretty quickly here, too.
