SIT-REP OCT '42: Germany having surrendered earlier to the USSR produced the borders shown. I played on to see if the AI had any tricks up it's binary sleeves.

That does not seem to be the case. The Allies have limited Diplomatic options, as it stands now it will cost 200 DP to go to war against the USSR or 80 DP to declare against

Vichy France, which possible due Parliamentary Elections that shifted their orientation to Comintern. The Brits will be the 1st to able turn this war hot. Having 26 DP in the bank

and gaining at a rate of 3 per month, they will have pocketed enough DP by April '44 to go against Vichy and August '47 for the USSR. That is of course if DP rate is static and

there are no events to alter the circumstances.

I started this game playing Italy solo against the AI just to see what would happen. I had to take on the Allies to work around CTD caused by the USA AI.

My Italian Saga

As of now Italy and Turkey are the only nations still fighting

Having seen what I have seen there are a few issues that Doom and the guys might want to look into:

As of now the ALLIES still have wartime supply even though they are not at war.

Italy has not conquered all of Turkey, yet supply convoys are no longer required.

The Allies are able to transport from London to all ports between Antwerp and Copenhagen inclusive during one turn. The Italians can do the same to Tripoli.

When I took over control of Denmark, it only had Copenhagen left with a good number of units in the Deploy Pool. After deploying all that I could, the next turn I had to purchase a unit to be able to access the rest. I had to do this over serveral turns to clear the pool.

The AI loves to Create New Fleets and funky convoys to and from ports that the particular Nation does not control.

For those of you that might be wondering what the USSR AI was up to:

One last Screen Shot:

Are those games played with version 1.5 or 1.6?

This is just one game played across all three 1.60's that were and are out there. The original Beta, the revised Beta and the official patch. I had a version conflict because I

installed the original Beta over the 1.50 Hot Fix. Since then I've performed a clean install using the revised Beta and then I overwrote that with the official patch. I hope that is

not too much info.
