The first game, I've made a mistake and started with normal difficulty settings.
I've played as Poland. It ended with a complete defeat
Poland had no chances, I knew that. Too many boarder provinces to defend.
So I picked France with lowest difficulty settings.
Well, I welcomed ww2 with a system of fortresses over my Belgian boarders, because I expected German attack there. I didn't manage to save Belgium, and after some time the front line was broken in Sedan (ironic, isn't it) and by the second part of 1941, the only point I had in continental Europe was heroic Toulon, successfully defending against all German attacks.
I could try to carry on, but instead, I picked France again.
It was somewhat better this time. Again I didn't manage to save Belgium; first eastern province I've lost early, then Belgium after a great combat much much later on and then I didn't even try to defend the third line, but retreated to earlier prepaired fortifications along the boarders. I managed to hold them,
and produced a tank force of 20 for attack. I decided to use it against Italy, however, and took entire Libya.
My other forces saved earlier Egypt from being taken by Italy, and I successfully defended Indochina against Japaneese. My naval forces crushes Italian and made way for British conquest of it.
However, I was rather disappointed with my allies. I waited for help from them, but they preferred invading Bulgaria instead. Then I waited for a relief - 1941 German-Soviet war. But it did not happen! Germany only invaded USSR in late 1942 and after initial successes Soviets marched triumphally as far as Bremen.
Me, I just managed to liberate two Belgian provinces.
So, I decided to play USSR. It was going swell, though I've commited one serious mistake - I didn't notice the rebellion part of the game until it reached 80%....
in 1941 war with Germany, I managed to take a province of two, but in another place my front-line was broken.
Not wanting to risk a defeat, I restarted.
Its lyear 1939/1940 now and I have a dillema: should I attack Germany now, before they finish the conquest of France, by which I'll force them to fight on two fronts,
or should I wait till 1941, to prepare myself, but also letting them move all of their forces to the east?
I like tech exchange in the game. I found it so touching that Oman or Yemen send me techs... I always replied with the same.
As USRR, I'm pomping Mongolia with knowledge, but it's a pit without a bottom
I really like the game, though I'm not good at it. Since I've got it from a friend 5 days ago, I'm going to bed for 3-4 hours a day only due to it
