Prussia - HOI4 - Back to Peace

15 Jan 1914: Adding more MF's to my Construction schedule in order to meet the increased demand for new weaponry.
Divisions which have completed training are assigned to armies,
That makes 9 fully trained "Panzer-Divisions". Unfortunately they are still missing a lot of equipment.
20 Jan 1914: No problems with 7th Army. They seem to have everything under control.
23 Jan 1914: Good news for the Soviets.
Getting impatient but I still have to wait 37 days.
Shortages across the board for the Kaiserliche Armee.
Not much change here but at least we are not alone now.
An overview of my research projects.
The Diplomacy table lists what nations think of each other. The first column is what Germany thinks of them, the second is what they think of us. I've listed European nations and who likes us most. Of course our puppets and members of our Central Powers faction come in at +100. The Soviets at +82 is good.
Now which nations dislike us the most and there is our archenemy France at the top of the list with -100. Surprising is the -75 for Scandinavian countries and Switzerland.
I decide to import more oil from Austria-Hungary while it is still there.
I need to fix 9th Army's segment of the border. It's overlapping with that of its neighbour.
24 Jan 1914: The Soviets are good at watching others do their work....
15 Feb 1914: My Chemical Warfare Focus has been completed.
While I'm here I order 8th Army to guard the Serbian-Turkish border. It's wide open....
I also decide to commence building U-Boots.
I select Naval Gun Effort as my next focus.
23 Feb 1914: I change my Trade Laws from Limited Exports to Export Focus. That has a few positive effects.
24 Feb 1914: There are fewer enemy units than last month.
24 Feb 1914: I've added another MF to the production of Support Equipment.
02 Mar 1914: ….and I was beginning to enjoy this.
03 Mar 1914: The Treaty of Urga is brutal. The Russian Empire has been devoured!
My 7th Army can now return home, hopefully with valuable experience. We may be visiting Soviet Russia in the not to distant future.
That's all for this post, guys. Bis bald.

Germany - HOI4 - Damn the Soviets! (II)

28 Jan 1941: Just over one week after we responded to the brutal Soviet assault on Finland we have made considerable gains despite the many handicaps which have confronted us. I start recruiting 10 more assault divisions. I like those figures but look at the contribution of the Allies - ZERO!!! 31 Aug 1941. Our forces have captured Kiev, the Ukrainian capital. At Vitebsk the Fallschirmjäger are helping to make contact with the advancing troops. The Soviets suffer a major naval defeat in the Baltic. We also agree to a Non-Aggression Pact with France. 01 Feb 1941: Guderian's Panzerarmee has started to engage the enemy. A gaping hole in the Soviet lines is being created. In addition, Encryption research has been completed. I decide to research Concentrated Industry IV next. 06 Feb 1941: There is intensive fighting north of Gomel. We appear to have the upper hand though. 07 Feb 1941: The situation in the south is more confused. I give orders to take Odessa

Italy - HOI4 - Danzig or War?

06 Apr 1939 - Let us stroll around Europe and survey the mood at the brink of war. The Soviets have a very bad opinion of Germany. That is good news. My wars did that. The same in France. That is very good news. Poland needs all the friends it can get. To be expected. 07 April and the insatiable Adolf Hitler is grabbing more territory. 20 Apr 1939 and Radio Detection has been researched. I now select Advanced Machine Tools . I must keep my industry as modern as possible. I'm satisfied with the situation. 09 May 1939 and Computing Machine research is completed. I can now research Decryption-Frequency Analysis . It sounds interesting, 14 Jun 1939 - Decision day for Poland and they quite rightly presumed that Germany would want more than Danzig alone. Germany now has a justification to attack Poland (game rules). Meanwhile at home my next focus will be Carrier Effort . A low priority for the Navy but I need the technology. 15 Jun 1939 and German

Prussia - HOI4 - Drang Nach Osten (I)

Image
06 Feb 1917: The Soviets call Georgia into the conflict.... ….and Mongolia too. 11 Feb 1917: Deep penetrations on the Northern Front. 12 Feb 1917: I divert a few divisions from 6th Army south then east to support the southern flank. 14 Feb 1917: The first naval battle ends in a German victory. 19 Feb 1917: I order a couple of divisions to advance on the Soviet capital Petrograd. Two weeks into the campaign and the road to Moscow appears to be free of defenders. Oh, we have lost air superiority over Eastern Germany. 23 Feb 1917: I deploy 6 air wings from my reserves to remedy the situation, 26 Feb 1917: We are at the gates of both Petrograd and Moscow. 27 Feb 1917: I add more MFs to Infantry Equipment and Fokker CAS aircraft. We have captured Novgorod so I send 4 more divisions from 5th Army to Petrograd. 28 Feb 1917: A defeat? 8 old destroyers sunk a battleship and a light cruiser. Give them some medals. We have only 137 dead! Almost a Sunday stroll.
