OK, so i move country take nothing but a bike, laptop and bag of clothes with me ... oh yeah, and HOI2 :D

Now, i decided i would try this HSR thing. So far its quite good fun, you chaps have put a lot of effort into it, thanks. However the game is getting a bit silly now.

I am GBR. Here is a list of dates and occurunces etc.

1938: Germany gets sudetenland.
Early 1939: Germany DOWs Czechoslovakia, which is very quickly pwned by Ger and Hung.
Early 1939: Due to the Ger-Czech war, Poland DoWs Germany, quickly taking what appears to be an undefended Berlin. Poland quickly gets pwned and is annexed between SOV and Ger.

GBR did not have enough time to guarantee independence of POLAND, so no war breaks out with Germ.

Spring 1942
OK WTF ... still no war with Germany, Ger's beligerance has slowly crept down to <10. Im getting bored so I ally with Nat China so i can war with someone, so I gradually island hop and take start invading the Jap homeland with 12 divisions + Her majesties Royal Marines. I diplomatically ask Jap to become a puppet and she accepts. Tea and crumpets in Tokyo .... hooorah!

Jan 12th 1943, Japan, with 2 battleships and no Aircraft Carriers DOWs her mortal enemy USA. I view this as a boody good show as I can now wage war with someone .... but wait! I cannot.

It appears that I can ally with the USA, but I am not allied with Japan, even though she is Her majesty's puppet.

Oh and Germany is still not at war with anyone, and she has the largest navy in the game.

Any thoughts? Im guessing it is just a pure coincidence with Germany's war status.
 
Very, very strange turn of events there!

1938: Germany gets sudetenland.
Early 1939: Germany DOWs Czechoslovakia, which is very quickly pwned by Ger and Hung.


That's where stuff started getting weird.
As for Japan... release puppet? (Maybe then you can ally with the USA.)

Play the game out and see what other strange things happen.
For next time... shift a little more towards Interventionism so you can guarantee Poland's western borders?
 
there are still a lot of flaws if you play unhistorical - as there are so many possibilitys which cant all be foreseen.. (esp. later in the war)
so its good that you report these errors so we can fix them.. thx!

my oppinion on your special case:
theres a small chance that AI Germany and Czech will go to war.
then i think poland DOW is intended but you (FRA/GBR) should get an event to decide what to do. (and AI should interfere)
japan dow usa might be the pearl harbor event and shouldnt happen if JAP is a puppet.

anyhow i havent looked at the code but ill mention (link) this at the stony forum and i think it will be fixed in 2.07.
