This makes the US ridiculously OP (which is why KR has a mandatory US civil war), but I wasn't interested in a competitive game so much as I was interested in a game where I was playing KR but free from all the scripted events, once the initial depression was overcome. I had an interesting game of HoI4, playing Kaiserreich with the 'Avoid American Civil War' mod. I'm thinking of trying to promote communism and stage coups in some countries to tip the balance a bit I haven't tried this kind of gameplay yet, and my NKVD has many spies so it may be an interesting strategy. So dangerous times may be ahead for the Soviets. The US is neutral for now, but I suspect once Japan is done with China, it will attack the US and make it join the Allies (if it does not decide to attack me instead). The Balkan countries are mostly unaligned so far, except for Bulgaria which joined the Axis very late in the war and did not have time to do much before German surrender, so now it's the only member of the Axis despite not even being fascist. The only problem is that the Allies are quite strong now, with Italy, Austria, and Albania joining them (Norway joined as well because Germany stupidly decided to declare war on them while being at war with me and the Allies already). Italy itself was recreated as a republic. In Africa, Libya was made into a British colony, while former Italian colonies Eritrea and Somalia became independent. The Allies restored Czechoslovakia (which controls only Slovakia), Austria (controlling only Tirol), and Albania created a free Transylvania and Slovenia.

I was lucky that Hungary did not count as a major, so their occupation did not affect the outcome!ДЄfter an intense peace conference Europe looks like this (November 1940):Д«asically, I puppeted Germany and Hungary, making them communist, plus took some lands for myself (western Germany, Austria, and Moravia, though I may give them back for now and annex my puppets later). The Australians make a landing in Bremen and the UK takes out the Italians and occupies Rome, causing the Axis to surrender. That's when the Germans start to crumble in the west I execute some more encircling attacks and finally march to the borders of the Netherlands, Belgium and France. Anyway, in the west I manage to make a desperate push towards Berlin, and my tanks occupy the city. Fortunately, my armies in Germany are still supplied since I control Baltic ports from Memel to Danzig, so shipments can come from Leningrad. They even cut my territory in half once they push north to the Lithuanian border. I scramble some armies to cut them off, but my defense there is stretching really thin, and the Hungarians manage to eventually occupy western Ukraine and eastern Poland (basically everything between Warsaw and Kiev, not including the cities themselves). That is when fucking Hungary decides to join the Axis, and their units flood into my territory, with some Germans joining in as well. After months of pushing and trying to create good attacks from multiple directions, I start to break though the German lines. However, France is pushing slowly in the west, advancing slightly across the Rhine and into occupied Belgium they are not making huge gains either, and actually losing to the Italians down south. Fortunately I don't have to watch Asia, since Japan is still bogged down in China, though clearly winning.ДЄnyway, my push into Germany is painfully slow because of material shortage and Germans having good entrenchment. The Netherlands also join some time later due to UK pressure.

Luckily, after a month or so France decided that enough and declared war on Germany, and soon after the UK joins in making this a big Allies and Comintern vs Axis world war. Italy is also in the Axis, but does little against me. At this point, Germany holds Czechia and Slovakia is in the Axis, so I have to guard that border as well (it's really crappy to attack because of all the mountains). I overrun Eastern Prussia and concentrate on the push towards Berlin. I was finally ready and declared war on Germany in mid-1939, just as Germany was invading Belgium (but had no other western wars yet). I was playing the Soviet Union, building up for an early war against Germany.

Had a rather intense game of Hearts of Iron 4 yesterday.
