I have been playing HoI2 a bit more lately, and have come up against a few annoyances.
1. I find diplomacy close to useless. I have never been able to convince anyone to jopin my alliences, even when I am paramount. As Germany I had achieved bitter peace with the USSR, had conquered the Levant, Iraq, Iran, all of India and Burma, and have had +200 relations with Nationalist Spain and Portugal, and +100 with Romania for years, and yet I can;t convince any of them to join me! (I would like Spain and Portugal to make it easier for me to take the Brits out of Africa).
What does it take for anyone to join an allience!?
2. People stay at war for stupid reasons. IN another game as the USSR, I have beaten Germany, annexed it at Poland. Austria, Hungary, Romania and Czechoslovakia are puppets. I formed the Italian Socialist republic. I offer the last remaining Axis, Italy, a white peace (Italy is still at war with the Allies, including a never conquered France AND the US) and yet they refuse! What kind of idiots are they!
3. Is it possible to create a greater Poland while still having a German puppet? I did a game from 1936 were I conquered Germany as Poland in 1936. I tried to then liberate Germany, thinking I would still get Silesia, Pomerania, and East Prussia while the rump Germany would be a fine puppet to milk for tech (since they will have 5 research teams while I have only 2), and yet if I liberate Germany they go back to full size!
