In two games playing Core 0.25 as Italy Germany did nothing to fight the war.

Situation:
1936 Italy took over Spain
01.09.1939 WW2 startet
03.09.1939 Italy joins Axis
5 weeks later: Italy has conquered France (no Vichy events)

The shocking facts: Germany with 110+ Divisions does nothing (except declaring wars) after taking a few polish provinces for the next 9+ month.
Germnay is unable to finish Poland, Denmark, Luxemburg, Belgium or the netherlands.

Worst things are german provinces who had to be retaken by Italien troops eg. Saarbrücken & Cologne from Belgian Troops or Munich & Vienna from Hungarian troops. (In the second game a "Desperate Measures" event fired after hungarian troops running wild in south Germany)

All the time 100+ german divisions walk around and do nothing

Any Help?
 
I think that if you take an ahistorical route (i.e. starting the war before Sept. 1 1939), AI Germany tends to act differently. In this case, if you started the war in January 39, that probably prevented the German annexation of Czechoslovakia and other events, which throws the German AI off. Did the UK guarantee Poland's independence and bring her into the Allies? Did the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact fire? How about the Danzig or War event?

There was no ahistorical route (just Spain in the Civil war and me joining the Axis early). I played twice to the end of 1940 to proove the results.
Anschluss of Austria, Munich conference, annexation of Czechoslovakia, Poland is in the Allies, Molotov-Ribbentrop fired and the war started historically = 1. September 1939 (AIs took option A all the way).

I could provide savegames and screenshots.

Any other italian experiences?

Does anybody know a fix to start/restart the german war AI???
