I want to thank all those people who have helped me put this mod together, and the the people who have come up with many of the ideas I have borrowed. Thanks especially to all the main playtesters from version one, Adam, Geofactor, Mighty G., Gunny, Hiensen, King Tiger II, DEX and Nicophorus, General Sherman, Waffen, WretchedMass and Nostra. Especially Predator who did a lot of 1 on 1 playtesting and helped me re-organize my crazy file structure. Also the other modders who I have learned from and exchanged ideas with, such as the guys at the Multiplayer Enhancement Mod Prime Minister Fiend, P3D, Durruti, Zsolo, Tyrant, and also Gormodoc over at the CDCP Mod, Fernando Torres at the World in Flames Mod and Cohen for his ideas and Lord Ederon and his fantastic online map utility of course.

In particular I want to say hats off to the MEM guys here, especially Durruti, Zsolo and Fiend, who put together the excelent map modifications, which they have graciously allowed me to use.


Thanks guys, one and all.

Mod patch will be available in the next couple of days, once I get done with the last tweaking.

How Japan failed the Axis:

Tensions were high in the pre-game warm up and the Empire of Japan and the Soviet Union cajoled and threatened each other in a fierce war of words concerning the future of Siberia and Manchuria.

        name = "Mr. Bolt (everyone):wtf?" 
        name = "Mr. Bolt (everyone):how cum nazi china left alliance?" 
        name = "Nostra (custom):Nat china got banned from Jap Alliance"

        name = "Madball (custom):Uk hedged bets" 
        name = "Mr. Bolt (everyone):''Cowardly emperor backs down from war with russia''"

In Europe negotiations between Germany and the UK broke down over the fate of Czechoslovakia, and Neville Chamberlain hedged his bets at Munich, uttering his now famous phrase: "We must not bow to tyrrany or threats."

"We must not bow to tyrrany or threats -- there will be no appeasement of agression in Europe, diplomatic or otherwise: the borders of Czecholsovakia are not negotiable for they comprise the legal boudaries of a sovereign member of the League of Nations."

Meanwhile tempers flared in the east. A heated last minute negotiation between the Empire of Japan and the Soviet Union

        name = "Madball (custom):lets get it on before august" 
        name = "Mr. Bolt (everyone):so i can dow japan when i want right?"

        name = "Geofactor (custom):ok dropped to 11 percent"

        name = "Madball (custom):build forts in frieberg Stutgard and strasburgh and go straight through Poland"

Fed up with neotiations Chancellor Hitler called Chamberlain's bluff and declared war on Czechoslovakia on June 26th, 1939. The day after the Allies bit the bullet and backed the tottering middle European state and all out war broke out in Europe, while negotiations continued in the east:

        name = "Mr. Bolt (everyone):mass decide" 
        name = "Mr. Bolt (everyone):i dow  or you pay me my t ribute" 
        name = "Mr. Bolt (everyone):like now cuz war started" 
        name = "Madball (everyone):you can do what you like now silver" 
        name = "Mr. Bolt (everyone):going once" 
        name = "Mr. Bolt (everyone):going twice" 
        name = "Mr. Bolt (everyone):bye bye mother fucker" 
        name = "21:00 June 27, 1939 : Soviet Union declared war upon Japan."

And England offered Japan an alliance:

        name = "Nostra (everyone):We dont look to kind at Soviet aggression"

Japan accepted.

In early fall 1939, the Italian Foreign Ministed Count Ciano held high level talks with his German counter-part, von Ribbentrop, and it was agreed that Germany would not intervene if Italy prosecuted its long standing claims in the Balkans through force, and quickly annexed Yugoslavia. However when it came to extending Italy's grip down to Greece the Allies were not so obliging and soon declared war, forcing Italy into the Axis

Meanwhile in Asia, far away from the help of their new found allies the Japanese Empire was sorely pressed in Siberia, and the work of 10 years of careful expansion was undone, as the Japanese puppets state of Manchuria and China fell one by one to Russian troops and their Communist Chinese Allies.

Inside sources suggest that Prime Minister Tojo may be forced to resign.

I took these verbatim quotes from the game log, because they were just too good to forget. 8 hours of gameply in this session and one year of gametime.
