Heh. Such a version always exists. In the case of Divine Wind we actually had a treat; a leaked copy of the gold master hit the mainstream torrent trackers a full three days before the official launch date. This being said, Paradox is one of the good guys. Try it out, sure, but do give them...

Well, after supporting Franco through the civil war, and spending tons of Diplomatic power to get him closer to the Axis, I thought Id at least have a good ally for my trouble. Spain entered the Axis in Fall 38. I should have figured he was a waste of time when he used three fourths of his army...

Good point. Ive known some people modded their e-files, but Ive never played with anything than the default one. Not sure whats wrong with it, I guess balance issues? I bet this is all a scheme to nerf my beloved Panther Gs, isn't it? :mad: :p

We should go in post-1900 and make a thread about how Sealion in 43, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, is much more realistic and plausible. :D Someone bring the flame-repellent suits! ;)

Thats amazing :eek: Are savegames compatible? Im playing a clean install with only the (1.02 and) 2.20 unofficial patch.

I actually like some the AH-ish liberties many scenarios take. For instance, the 3rd map in the PG2 Blitzkrieg campaign sends a German army to Finland as secret volunteers - because of the non-aggression pact with the Soviets - that then destroys a trapped Soviet division. Historically, this...

Who played these classics? I recently surprised myself digging out my old PG2 CD and have started replaying the German campaign :D As I invade England, I realized the game pretty much hits all the sore spots this website has about Axis victory scenarios (up to an amphibious assault on the USA...

I think Valkyrie gives the Germans better odds of negotiating something separately than just having Hitler. The SS state is strong enough to keep the Nazi government in power, quite possibly under someone even worse than Hitler (And such a thing definitely existed), if they aren't dismantled in...

It would have royally screwed Roosevelt and made a Congressional DoW against Germany virtually unobtainable politically, especially coupled with heart-melting sympathies for the American losses at Pearl Harbor... ... but really this option makes more sense without the Tripartite pact. Still...

Out of curiosity, is it me or is there very strong opposition on principle to pretty much any timeline where the Axis does better? I mean sure, they were evil regimes, but that doesn't seem to be it. It's like most people don't believe the Axis could have done significantly better no better the...

Thanks, Ill give it a read :)

Airplanes can sink capital ships. I think that's one lesson we all learned from WW2. The possibility exists firmly, as demonstrated at Trento, Pearl Harbor, the North Sea, in the straits of Malacca, in the sea of Japan and pretty much everywhere else a battleship risked itself without air...

Whilst this timeline does takes certain... liberties with logistics and such, I liked reading it nonetheless. I've always thought a Mediterranean strategy aggressively pursued in the 2nd half of 40 and the 1st half of 41 was the best chance at an Axis victory. The Mediterranean is the heart of...

Morrocco start with higher tech levels than the Europeans, its not nearly as undefendable as some make it sound. It also got a new good province in Divine Wind. The best way to keep Castille out of your business as Morroco is to keep Grenada alive. A strong opening move is to attack it before...

Japan is fun, especially with Divine Wind. But you definitely seem light on HRE playthroughs. With HTTT or DW, especially, the HRE game is quite fun. Austria is easiest, but my favorite is probably Teutonic Knights > Prussia > Germany > HRE :)

:D Sad testament to the state of Humanity that this is so true, it's almost siggable even out of context ;)

Hm it depends... honestly, what I did there can be easily done with previous versions as well, "Liberate Country" was always a BB-free action in Eu3. This being said, overall, when they introduced this system, the Devs quadrupled the base BB cost for gaining provinces AND made it so you can...

You mean... the Casus belli system? :confused:

Austria... which I'm trying to turn into a naval, colonial Empire. I conquered Morroco and Algeria early enough for them to core by 1490 (thanks to Holy War) so I am in a good position to compete with the traditional colonizers. Furthermore, since it's DW, I grabbed Genoa's Crimean possessions...

The UK picked a bad day to piss me off. Nobody colonizes my stuff. :D The Bill of Rights: Liberating the shit out of Albion since 1483. One the second screen-shot, literally everyone is my ally or vassal following being released by the UK. Then I forced the UK to release England ( :D ) and my...
