Prussia - HOI4 - Post-Conflict Reorganization

16 Oct 1918: Now that the conflict is over we can begin introducing the new fighter aircraft. An upgraded Fokker D.VII A variant has been created. Some of the MFs are gray because Germany gave captured MFs back to nations that became puppets. I'll have to adjust the production schedule accordingly.
That's armour and aircraft done....
....then the production of infantry weapons is optimised.
I turn my attention to capital ships where there are 3 Bayern-Class battleships still being produced.
Light cruisers and destroyers have 4 dockyards per production line. Note that it is now Köln not Cöln. Cologne is the English equivalent.
We are producing almost 5 U-Booten per month and add that that to the 20 destroyers and 4 light cruisers being churned out per year. Quite a formidable navy and all are modern designs.
Surface fleets revert back to patrolling the high seas....
….and U-Bootdivision are put on escort duties again.
No less than 6 Armies were involved in the conflict so let's give them post-conflict duties.
General Ludendorff's 3rd Army is to garrison our new Arabian Reich.
General von Haydebreck's glorious 8th Army has its previous orders cancelled....
...and is assigned to our new border with Bulgaria.
General Sixt von Arnim's 6th Army, the "Thracian Thrashers", is sent home to Breslau in Eastern Germany.
General von Mackensen's 1st Army is sent to guard our long border with Persia.
The Armee Südrussland is sent back to Südrussland, i.e. the borders wirh NE Persia and Afghanistan while General Kraft von Dellmenns' 7th Army, currently garrisoning NW Russia. is detached from Armeegruppe Russland. It is a mixed army and needs to be reorganized before its component divisions are reassigned.
12th Army is dissolved with its 5 division reassigned to 11th Army....
….which is ordered to Damascus.
The same fate awaits General von Hindenburg's 13th Army.
There is a lot of redeployment in the region.
That's the Army taken care of and it is a convenient place to end this post. Bis bald.

Italy - HOI4 -Setting up (I)

Image
Welcome to a new game as Italy. Unlike Australia, Italy is already at war with Abyssinia, it is a fascist nation and has much larger armed forces. However, Mussolini came to power a dozen years before Hitler and his large military is equipped with WW1 equipment, he has only one good general who can't be everywhere at the same time and Mussolini is an idiot. Not the best pre-requisites to build a global empire. But we have to make do with what we have....so here is Italy at the start. I create an Alpine army and give them a fairly good commander then...  ...order them to a port. They are going to Abyssinia. I grab the rest of the army...  ...assign a lousy commander then...  ...order them to the Austrian border to remind Hitler that we also have plans for the alpine nation. In Eritrea we do the same...  .but this army gets the good general, Giovanni Messe. The Abyssinian troops are red because they are the enemy. Now the same again in Somali...

Germany - HOI4 - Looking Eastwards

Image
18 Nov 1936: Research on Concentrated Industry II has completed. I choose to research the SP-AT Marder II which will make something useful out of my useless Pz. Is and Pz. IIs. 05 Dec 1936: The doctrine Delay is selected. The +15% organization is very useful. I also spend 150 PPs on Henschel tank designers with emphasis on speed and reliability 08 Dec 1936: I upgrade 8 more infantry divisions. 16 Dec 1936: The focus KdF-Wagen is completed. I choose Treaty with the USSR next - a joint tank design venture. I also deploy another 8 infantry divisions. 19 Dec 1936: AT-gun development has been completed. Time to develop a Fallschirmjäger force. 27 Dec 1936: Two fully trained motorized infantry divisions are assigned to Guderian's new Panzerarmee. I say new because the forces used against Austria were barely a Corps-sized unit and in need of reform. A couple of days later the SP-AT Marder II becomes available. I select the doctrine Dive Bombing ...

Germany - HOI4 - A New Perspective

Image
    What I like about playing Germany is thanks to Versailles Treaty all German forces actually begin in Germany. No colonies, no foreign wars so no scrolling around the world. A recent update to HOI4 introduced a Focus Tree which allows an alternative path for Germany without Hitler. Selecting Oppose Hitler plunges Germany into a civil war; Wehrmacht versus Nazis. If the Wehrmacht prevails the options pictured below are available. Unfortunately Germany can't go around conquering Europe instead has to wait for the war to come to him - somewhat boring. This is the more 'historical' path, i.e. the Nazis are in power and have more opportunities coupled with more disadvantages. Only a handful of nations like Nazis... So let's try to make the most of this dilemma. (I won't be giving such a detailed narrative in this campaign - hopefully those who have followed my previous campaigns have already grasped the basics.) First I need to set up my research project...
