Ally Control

Post by Montbrun »

How does the system handle a country's allies? For example, is there a trigger when Germany can control Italian, Rumanian, etc. forces? Or, more importantly, The US/UK? In other games there are systems where you can either control allied units directly, or you can ask for "loaned" units. It would suck if Italy or one of the allied countries were off "doing their own thing."

Italy is a major power and in the main scenario Italy comes in when Paris is taken or if the French evacuate the Alps or their North African colonies. The "Moose" will see this as an opportunity basically.

Minor countries give some of their production away and all of their oil except what they need.

Minor countries have their own manpower and production but follow the major power controller's advancements.

So if you want a large Romanian army Germany needs to send it production to fill out its logistics capacity in units.

Players have full control of countries in their alliance which is Axis or Allies
