Estabilishing close relations with the Soviet Union at the expense of Poland is only a strategic mistake if Germany and the Soviet Union are interested to fight a war against each other - that doesn't seem to be case in the 20's and in fact they were very happy to cooperate with each other...

The original mission of the High Seas Fleet was to prevent Britain to strangle german trade in the North Sea with no sacrifice to make in strategic terms, according to Tirpitz - especially after certain diplomatic incidents during the Boer War. Besides, Britain was already turning towards France...

I would like to know what kind of discussion led to the Zimmermann Telegram. The whole debacle is ridiculously insane.

The war won't be decided in Africa, it'll be decided in Europe. If Germany wins in Europe they wins. Any attempt to prevent Germany from accessing their colonies will end in harsher peace and territorial losses towards France. France will pressure Britain to return german colonies, Britain...

They'll need to be returned or else european borders won't be returning to their 1914 status.

The most likely scenario is that Weimar crawls through with many governments falling until things stabilize around the late '30s. I don't really see the 'far-right' nor the 'far-left' being able to hold to power without an aggressive state takeover.

Apparently, just like the base game but the player character can be made a knight by their liege and remain stationed at the liege's capital. I was playing a monster 60 prowess Lord of Duskendale and I was stationed at King's Landing as a knight for Robert and also taking part as a knight in...

I'm eager to see their next dev diary that will likely touch the subject of knights. Perhaps after almost four years we'll be able to act as knights for our lieges. Even the GoT mod got it first than the own CK devs.

If they can bloody install a monarch on the german throne they must be on the outskirts of Berlin. This is far, far worse than Versailles.

Germany can't fight alone since they don't have the advantage of earlier militarization while the soviets do. The soviets also have all kinds of military and manpower advantage and a battle tested doctrine to erase the bugs of the system. I doubt the germans would declare with such known...

If they try to invade they HRE they suffer a defeat similar to the one they suffered in their second invasion of Hungary. Heavy cavalry supported by a large ring of castles was the Achiles heel of the mongols in Europe and the empire had that in abundance, to the point the hungarians even...

I can see Germany keeping more of Poland in a situation where there's no Barbarossa, like if german intel about the size of the soviet army is more accurate. Hitler doesn't launch it but end up losing the war on the West with entrance of the United States. Let's say the war ends by 1946 or 47...

If the Pope is signing off entire catholic communities in Poland to the benefit of nazism alone, then he is more a nazi than he is a Pope!

It begs to question why the very countries that were pillaged by the Soviet Union, are doing better than them right now.

Well. Germany can always partition Belgium with France if Britain proves to be not open for negotiations regarding the colonies. Doesn't look like a good trade for Britain.
