Apologies if this topic has already been beaten into the ground here, but has anyone played Germany and conquered the world in the 12 years allotted in the "Road to War" scenario in HOI Platinum?

I am playing Germany, and am going to more-or-less duplicate her actions until Hitler's backing out of Sea Lion. My plan is then to do Sea Lion, then take Ireland, then Iceland. Meanwhile, the bulk of my land forces will turn east and knock out the Soviet Union. I am well on the way to nukes, and I am in mid-1939. When I have a nuke and a long range missile, I will nuke a few U.S. cities from Iceland, and force it into submission. After the Soviet Union and the U.S. are mine, I'll have the world, essentially.

HOI Platinum has not been out very long. that said, since Platinum is 1.06c (which has been played for a while), i suspect that several of the good to better players here have done just that . :D

i look forward to your AAR! and, best of luck! :cool:
 
Yet another German AAR... But since you are planning to do some alternative reality things (such us invading Ireland and nuking US), I think this AAR may be a bit more interesting than the rest :cool:

GOOD LUCK AND SEND A GERMAN REPLY FOR DUKE NUKE'M TO THE US! :p
 
I finished playing HoI w/ Germany .. the only Nation that chose to go to War with me was Russia. Everyone else remained away. Instead of conquering (which I should've!), I have chosen to research and build a Navy. It was in 1944 that Russia had chosen to go against me. By that time, I had a powerful Naval platform. I decimated the little Russian fleet within 10 minutes of the fight. Russia stayed at War, and yet, stayed away from me. Possibly because I had Nuke fully researched.. and even so, I had no bomb capabilities. Needless to say, I lost the game because the Axis had the lowest of points. I am making a 2nd attempt now at being more dominant and using Historical Stony Road (latest version), as well ! ;)
