The world of tomorrow a Multi 1944 game

[Small]

Intro

The year is 1944 and over the last 5 years the world has been covered in war in Europe Small is at the head of a collapsing Germany under attack in the east by a aggressive USSR who Hungers for revenge and power. but the problems do not stop there with a allied attack on Normandy and they are out for blood after yeas of embarrassing failure they are keen to remind the Germans of how they beat them 26 years ago.

in the east a japan is under massive pressure with the USA moving in on them from the south and the east and the British forces moving in from the west and to make matters worse a angry bear could turn around any day now and take a bite out of them but the sun has not set on them yet.

only tomorrow knows

Me (Small) playing as Germany at the start then Japan then as one of the 2 German states (poor me )

Jalak as USA (apparently his name has a meaning he wont say what tho)

and Ictobar As the USSR (probably the reason Allies and Comintern will go to war likes his IC a bit to much)

Updates
will happen hopefully once every 2 weeks due to this being a network game but updates will cover a year or two (hopefully)

this AAR will be written from all our views as a history book game play view
it is also my first AAR and just to let you know my spelling is bad so i do apologize for any spelling or grammar error (but it should be fixed by Jalak who will get annoyed at me for it )

First Blood the last 2 months in Europe

First Blood: The last 2 months in Europe​

to start this off, at the end of this update, I can safely say that you will probably say "Small; you idiot!" at the end of this update. Bassically, I made the biggest mistake I have ever made playing this game: I forgot I was playing against a Human, not an AI . You will understand soon. Anyway, on with the update.

The day was a total mess for the Germans near the normandy as allied forces overpowered their defences and pushed them back into mainland France. To make matters worse, some troops had been cut off from Germany, which led to the mistake that cost Germany (me) the war; They where ordered to redeploy to Belguim and the French border in order to form a defensive line, but Germany (once agian, me) did not understand how fast American troops were. Before they could arive, the US forces (Jalak) had overrun those posistions, forcing the many divisions to redeploy back to berlin. But that was not the worst of the problems facing Germany; The Red Bear (Ictabar as the soviets) was attacking relentlessly and without remource.



within about two months Germany had reached its most desperate point of the war: All of western europe had fallen to US forces and the Soviets had pushed the Germans out of occupied Russia and was now halfway through Poland. Things were grim (as in, alot more grim then usual) Germany would only last two more weeks before they would surrender to US forces.

When the peace came around and Germany surrendered, these conditions were imposed:
-Germany will mantain their military, some of which under US control, to aid the Allied Forces in the Asian theater. This includes if war ever occours agianst the USSR.
-Germany will also remain a puppet of the United States of America and release all territory that was gained in the war, with the exclusion of Austria, which was deemed a peaceful integration of Germany, rather then conquered expansion of the previously called 'Third Reich'.

"we will make sure that the events of the past do not repeat themselves, and if that means US forces must remain in Germany for the next hundread years, then we shall remain in Germany for the next hundred years. We will ensure that, so long as the American freedom holds high, no lives shall be lost due to any petty disputes, such as power and greed."
President Jalak of the United States of America.


Next update: The Sun sets in the East

Notes form this update:
If the images do not work I do aplagize. I uploaded them with 'Imageshack' and I am in a bit of a rush and not sure on how to post pictures properly.
also there where only Screan shots taken from Ictabar and Jalak avaliable in this update because my 'F lock' key was not on. Shame too, because I had some good picks
Jalek was also more than happy to rub it in on how much I failed due to me only lasting 2 months (I am not happy with myself...not at all )
if there is any sugestions or advice you would like to share, feel free to share.

Looks cool. Seems DDR is going to be smaller than historically Btw why didnt you just play the 1945 doomsday scenario? Seems a bit pointless to play GER in 1944 against human players

 

[Small]

becase we found that 1945 senario USSR is a bit to strong pluse what you dont see is that i have alrady surendered there is no DDR or FDR its still germany the USA player Jalak is going to lanch oprashon unthinkabl so i get to keep all of my 200 divs

 

[unmerged(128102)]

I think you ask him to remove the "puppet" thing just so you dont feel to minor!

Mini Update

I had another look over of what i put in the AAR and noticed that i left a lot out so i have included this mini update to explain what has happened to Europe after the fall of Fascist Germany (<= being safe)

after germanys defeat The United states of amarica which had lead the invasion of europe had now begun the process of librateing the countries that where ocupied during the war as well as forceing Germany to release the countries it had ocupied



but the war was not over for the alies in europe with the last remaining Fasist states atempting to hold out against the odds in a act of deffince and disscust due to germanys surrender after two months



and while these events where occouring the passifc war still rages on with the japanes invadeing the west cost of Austrailia in a attempt to distract the Alied attack.



Notes & Other
@Austria Hungary
he flatly refuses he says seeing he won the war he has the right to keep me as a puppet and he knows from pervus games not to trust me becase given the chance i would kick him out of europe again
@Deus Eversor
i worked out what i was doing wrong with the pics so now they are up which is a good thing becase i am not very good at explaneing things am i

also note this is a mini update no game play has occoured since the last main update i did this update seeing the last one had a lot missing from it
and i felt much was not shown/explaned
i think we will also try and use the senario editor to give some teratory to other countries EG france and cezslovackia
and attempt to make East West Poland seeing they are in a very simler position to what germany was in

 

[Jalak]

Hey, I'm Jalak, the player of the US forces in this multiplayer. I'm pretty much helping Small by posting some bonus material on this aar, such as some motives behind some of the moves we do as well as some of our thoughts on the thing.
Here's my part i'm mentioning.

You may have noticed that, instead of belgium, i had liberated Flanders and Wollonia. One of the countries is rules by an incompatent and the other a power-hungry phycopath. This was because I thought that Belgium would not be loyal enough, and two US friendly goverments in Europe would be good for my interests. It had nothing to do with me forgetting I could give territory back to the belgiums. Yeah, totally not that.

The invasion of Australia was Small's doing; he took temporary command of the Japanese forces and launched the invasion to try and distract my fighting. It didn't work, and i'm simply letting the Australians deal with them. Also, my fleets have been wondering around Japanese forces with no battles to count for, since Small forgot to order the fleets to patrol.

Also, we're wondering what to do with Poland. It's doubtful that Poland will be given to one side, so we're stuck with a east-west thing with them. Also, Small, Ictabar and I discussed it and decided that it would be best for the lower-eastern nations be given up to the Soviets (ictabar). This is because he wasn't particularly happy about the fact that Small surrendered to me, so giving him Romania and Bulgaria can create a buffer zone between us and him to ease tensions. However, I'm probably going to grab Hungary and led Small (germany) manage it as a puppet. Also, we're thinking of either taking over Croatia and splitting Yugoslavia between it and Serbia, another puppet, or simply having Serbia take it all.

We're also going to have Britian give Italy back to the Italians, and France back to the French as well as giving the Sudentland back to czechslovakia. So far, the only puppets we actually plan on having would be Italy under US, Serbia under Germany, Hungary under Germany and Flanders/Wollonia under US.

Any suggestions on how to ease already building tensions between Small, Ictabar and I would be welcome. As much as Small wants to, I don't want Operation Unthinkable to be implemented so early in the game.

Germany keeping Austria, Poland and the Sudetenland after WW2 sounds very fictional, but I'm still quite interested to see in which direction your AAR might go.

 

[Jalak]

Its mostly just temporary during this time of the war.
Once the war with Japan is over, we're going to start splitting up the terrirtory more historically, though Ictabar certianly explained to me, at one point, that he wasn't too thrilled about the fact that he has gotten almost nothing out of Europe.

P.S: About Austria. For some reason, we can't grant it independance, so until we figure it out, Austria is going to be German. Besides, Historically, The Austrian people were certianly in favour of a unification with Germany. I have serious doubts that this wilingness would remain after the war, but it's an excuse for now, and it would make for an interesting story in future in the aftermath.

The Sun Sets in the East

First of before i start righting this is the strangest game of HOI2 i have ever had and you will see why in a bit but a lot can change in two years.

The war with The Last European Axis states was short and fast and had lots of treachery the world will all ways remember how Hungarian Troops Helped with the fall of there home land and how Finnish troops Disgusted in there government fought against it so that they to collapse Romania and Bulgaria Lasted 2 weeks before there demise with over 150 Soviet Divisions attacking from the north and 20 Allied divisions attacking from the south and east borough a easy demise and allowed for some strange gains with Hungary's annexation of Finland gave a strange turn of events in the war with the Soviets (Ictabar) Lost his cool and made a Rush for all of Finland but he was to slow to take all with Jalak annexing Hungary to gain some territory for the Allies in the north and in central Europe.

shortly after the war both soviet American and German leaders sat down to talk about how to ease tension in the region all sides agreed that a buffer state was needed and the Partitioning of Poland Treaty was formed the Agreement stated
Both sides will give up a fair bit of land to form the state
No side is to have any diplomatic ties to the country
both sides are to respect the Neutrality of the state
Poland is to allowed to decide its own fate

with all things settled in Europe both Ailed and Comintern governments turned there attention to the Japan the allied forces holding the USSR to a treaty it had supposedly made stating that it would invade Japan 6 months after Germany had been dealt with (we held it to him to it right it the hour) forces in japan where not as strong as they once where with the invasion of Australia a complete failure and them making little ground in china.
A joint effort was made by all minor allied powers to take all of south east Asia Countries such as South Africa New Zealand and Australia where involved in the effort but the Strangest turn of event for the war was the invasion of Japan by Brazilian Forces they made a successful landing Drawing away the Tokyo Garrison which lead to the main US invasion of the Island.



At the same time Soviet Troops where Marching in into northern China and Korea a US invasion of china cut them of from Gaining any land of central China but they still made huge gains much to Allied annoyance (mainly me)

A Allied invasion led by all Major parties (US UK German) Made successful landings in china which lead to Japan Surrendering to the US government

2 months latter a slight accident happened I (the German player) accidentally declared war on Spain i was teasing Ictabar and when Jalak Said "NO NO NO Don't" i went OK and pressed the OK button on the prompt thinking that it was on the back button (WOOPS ) Ictabar was not Happy with the turn out at all seeing he was trying to get them to join his Alliance after 3 months of fighting Spain was annexed All due to a mix up not that me or ictobar are complaining we both gained something out of the war i got more land and he got the Rewards from the Spanish civil war event which fired for some reason



Next Chapter The Fear of US Paratroops on my lawn

Notes
-there is a war going on in china right now but i will let Jalak tell you about that seeing i don't have any details on it
-also we found a strange division name Apparently Flanders has a tank division called 13-SS-Panzer-Div."LandStorm" I think so Former German troops have betrayed me
- i Also gave back the Sunderland (i did not want to But at least they forgot about luxenburg) *starts laughing evily*
@etepetete i did not get to keep The Sudetenland land Jalak made me give it back And i gave up poland To make a teratory Buff

 

[Jalak]

Concerning the Asian Theater of war; you may have noticed how colourful the continant looks. We noticed it to, and wondered why the ai was acting this, well, innitiative and actually being useful for a change. It turned out that, when i was looking at the screenshots i had taken on the harddrive, i noticed that there was a zip-file just sitting right in the middle of the armeggedon game files we were using. Looking at it, i found out that it was the DIAM mod folder and we had been using it the entire time, since i was the host of the game. We're not going to change it or anything, since it makes the game more interesting.

Anyway; Japan eventually surrendered to our combined efforts and became a puppet of my growing empi...allied nations. They got to keep their forces as well, which is awesome. In China, I suffered that bug where a nation that enters territory that is a national province becomes theirs automatically, so i had to quickly liberate the occupied chinese provinces to prevent the chinese from taking it.
I couldn't liberate northern china, which was what i wanted, so i ended up liberating two chinese warlord factions and communist china (except it was a democracy) under my rule.
This proved to be a mistake.
Communist china had an event fire where they take on the nationalists, since the Japanese lost the war. This, in turn, dragged me into a war with nationalist china, so now my forces are dishing it out with the chinese, which was definitly not my plan.
Ictabar commented that he feels a bit threatened by this development, but there isn't a whole lot i can do about it. After nationalist china is defeated, i'm planning on banning communist china from the alliance then destroying it.

We're also going to edit indonesia so the territory goes to Australia, as well as Brazil occupied Japan to Japan, and also maybe unify china into one big puppet state under my control. Bwahahahaha.
Also, i had an event fire to outlaw the communist party, which i did so. Ictabar was not happy about that.

At this rate, WWIII will start by the end of next year.

P.S: if you're wondering why Small got the territory off spain when my provinces were right next to it, i was because I offered nationalist spain a white-peace, which they accepted. This would not be the last time that I forget that I am NOT the leader of the alliance, so the peace only counts for me.
Small is going to edit the game files so that I am the leader of the alliance, since I am the obvious superior.

P.P.S: Bwahahahahahaha

The Austrian people were certianly in favour of a unification with Germany. I have serious doubts that this wilingness would remain after the war, but it's an excuse for now, and it would make for an interesting story in future in the aftermath.

I know. I am austrian.
Just wanted to mention this.
