re:Invasion of Spain

[Stingz]

I like this game except for one thing....I find it hard to believe ( and this
happens everytime I play this game as the Allies and holding Germany off till October 1940 ) After France has surrendered and Vichy France is formed, the next turn, Germany immediately declares war on
Vichy France... However what happens two
turns after Vichy Frances surrender is that Germany always declares war on Spain and invades the country. To me this is
total rubbish ! Hitler and Franco where on the same wavelength.. The invasion of
Spain by Germany in 1940 would not of been an option,and needs to be fixed. Is there anyway this can be sorted ? if so please tell me how ..Thank you.

The Axis has two grand strategies, one historical, one Mediterranean.

These you can find in the _grandStrategy.txt. You can probably mod them out, reducing the strategies to just one: historical.

Or just hit F1 when the game starts which forces the historical strategy.

F1-F4 correspond to the 1, 2, 3, 4 strategy #s. It is used for beta testing but can be used by players to force a specific A.I. strategy.

Hello


this is very interesting to know


Question 1 :
how does AI choose mode 1 (history) or 2 (mediterranean) ? randomly?


Question 2:
I also want to play with AI Grand strategy only historical [:)]


as shown in attachment just destroy the line // 2 = Mediterranean strategy?
it's enough ? [:(]


Question 3: how in the game know in which mode we are? (maybe it is not visible?)


it's great to have planned 2 game modes but why not have it as an option as for historical bonus?

the way AI choose in a strategic way is very important
also i think it would interest a lot of players to know that it exists and it would be great to be able to choose when creating a new game [:)]

"Or just hit F1 when the game starts which forces the historical strategy." Do I do this just before I hit the start button or do I hit the start button first then F1 after the game starts and before I do anything else?
Thanks.

Do it the 1st turn the A.I. is moving. It will change their strategy ID to that.

The game randomly picks the strategy on the very 1st turn when the A.I. starts it's turn.

[PanzerMike]

Is that in the manual?

[thierry2015]

thank you for these details [:)]

and destroy the line // 2 = Mediterranean strategy (in _grandStrategy.txt) also forces AI play historical because no choice ?

(i wish only play Historical) [8|]
